Enhance Soil Quality with Professional Top Dressing Services
Common top dressing materials include compost, sand, and soil mixes. Each type serves specific purposes, such as leveling uneven surfaces or providing nutrients.
Top dressing improves soil aeration, enhances nutrient availability, and supports healthy turf growth. It also helps to reduce thatch buildup and improve drainage.
While early spring and fall are popular for top dressing, late November and early December can be ideal for preparing lawns for winter and promoting early spring growth.
Selecting the appropriate material depends on soil type, grass species, and landscape goals. Consulting with professionals can ensure optimal results.
