Do you have bare spots in your lawn? Is your turf not as lush and full as it once was? Patchy lawns can drive homeowners crazy, and constantly applying fertilizer can do more harm than good. Grass overseeding is the most effective, safe, and affordable solution to restore your lawn to its former glory!
Seeding over your existing lawn fills in bare patches by introducing new grass seed to struggling areas, creating denser turf for a fuller and thicker lawn.
Grass seeds compete for the same nutrients in the soil as weed seeds. An increase in grass seedlings means fewer resources left for weeds.
Incorporating seed varieties with high tolerances, such as Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue, makes your lawn more hardy and resilient.
Best lawn service ever. They always show up on the day scheduled and do a great job. I also appreciate the offers for leaf removal and cutting down a small tree in my back yard after the first hard snowstorm. I highly recommend this company for your lawn care needs.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I’ve used Heartland now for 4 years and they’re great! Their work is the best! If I ever have any issue with a treatment not working for my grass the owner himself would come out and re-apply the treatment. My lawn never looked better! Not to mention they have extremely good rates with their treatment plan. I highly recommend them to anyone!!!

I started using Heartland within the last year and am impressed by how reliable and great they are to work with. If it rains on your mowing day, they make sure you are taken care of the next morning! Great customer service, on a personal level while still fully professional. Their prices are low compared to competitors and still do just as good of a job! I'd highly recommend their services!

At Heartland, we strive to give our clients the most effective grass overseeding service possible. Our all-inclusive seeding and aeration service provides everything you need to achieve a beautiful lawn beyond simply tossing seeds down on top of your grass. Our full-service overseeding program includes verticutting, hand-tooling, aeration, and starter fertilizer to ensure success!
This machine cuts shallow slices in the soil so the seed can fall below the surface. Just as you would plant any other seed, grass seed needs to be below the surface to germinate.
Aeration improves soil quality by loosening packed dirt, breaking up thatch, and allowing water and nutrients to reach the root system of your lawn. Your lawn is only as good as the soil it’s grown in, and this is a great way to maintain soil quality.
We use hand tools to work the seed into the soil along edges, corners, and other areas our machine cannot reach. This attention to detail makes a big difference in the final result.
Grubworms have the potential to inflict severe damage to a lawn if left untreated. During their lifecycle grubs spend multiple seasons consuming grass roots before emerging from the surface as beetles. Our grub control is absorbed by the turfgrass and when the grubs begin to eat the roots, they consume the product and are eliminated. This method of control prevents the insecticide from harming other subsurface insects that can be beneficial to your lawn and the environment.
We apply a specially blended fertilizer designed to quickly establish new grass. It promotes root growth, lush green grass, and a beautiful lawn within weeks.
After we’ve seeded your lawn, it’s critical to water properly. We’ll provide you with foolproof instructions on how the get the new seed growing fast and proper watering throughout the fall.
The most important step in an over-seeding program is proper watering after overseeing is complete. Grass seed is very vulnerable to drought before it germinates, and any overseeding effort is only as good as the watering routine that follows.
When watering, keep in mind that sprinkler water output, daytime temperature, wind, and other variants will alter your watering times and frequency. After our technicians complete the overseeding job, you will need to keep an eye on the lawn to make sure it receives adequate water. The goal is to keep the top ½ inch of soil moist for at least two to three weeks. After that, watering may be cut back to once a day or every other day, depending on the weather, soil type, and other factors.
After the seed has germinated and developed a small root system, water can be reduced. Pay close attention if the weather is more rainy and cooler. While it is still important to maintain a moist top surface, watering can usually be cut back to once a day, or possibly less.
If you are overseeding in fall continue to maintain a fairly moist lawn until your sprinkler is winterized, or early November.
For spring seeding, continue to water more than normal during the summer during dry periods. The new grass still has shallow roots and is susceptible to heat and drought. If it dries out, it dies out!
If the lawn care enthusiasts here at Heartland Turf & Landscape hate one thing, it’s a thin and patchy lawn! We always go the extra mile to ensure that your new grass will take root and fill in exactly as you expect it to, and we leave all of our clients with instructions and guidelines. Below are just a few personal touches you get when you go with Heartland for your grass overseeding needs:
