Dethatching service involves removing the layer of thatch—a buildup of organic matter between the grass and soil surface. Thatch can hinder water, nutrients, and air from reaching the roots, leading to a weakened turf. Proper timing ensures that the grass can recover quickly and grow healthily after the procedure. Dethatching is most effective during periods of active growth, as the grass can repair itself and fill in any gaps caused by the process.
