We have had several customers ask about when lawn rolling can be performed. The answer is a complicated one because of several factors.

The season starts once the frost is out of the ground and the snow has melted off. It is a fine balancing act with the turf being too wet and when it is too dry. Timing is everything with this procedure. If too wet or if standing water is present it can make things messy. Once the turf becomes too dry the effectiveness of rolling diminishes greatly.

The type of soil your home has surrounding it makes a huge difference in the timing and effectiveness of the rolling process also. Some soil types will retain the moisture longer, making the soil softer and easier to roll. Other soil types absorb the moisture very quickly and dry out very fast, which limits the amount of time to roll for optimum results.

For the past several years, we have pretty much had approximately 2 months of available rolling time before mother nature makes it too dry to continue. If regular moderate rainfall is received more effective time is gained.

On a final note, aeration is probably the number one thing that can improve the overall look and feel of the turf surface. So it is important not to neglect this important step. Rolling compacts the soil, so following up with aeration opens up "pores" to allow nutrients, water, and oxygen to pe*****te deep into the roots where it is needed.

The snow is slowly disappearing and the temps are warming up. That means that the spring lawn rolling season is just around the corner. Don't wait to get your name on the list. Spots fill fast and the rolling season is pretty short here in Wisconsin. Mother nature waves the green flag for us to roll and she also waves the checkered flag. Problem is she never tells us how many laps (days) are in the race.

We can also put you on the list for lawn aeration and stump grinding if you would like. Check out

In the spring season we offer our lawn rolling service. This process greatly reduces the bumpiness that naturally occurs in the surface of a lawn during the winter season. For optimum results, we recommend our plug aeration procedure shortly after. We also have the ability to offer overseeding during this aeration process. Our overseeding has the ability to embed the fresh grass seeds deep into the plug holes, which when paired with the aeration process, supercharges the lush and thick lawn growth we all hope for. We then recommend a fall plug aeration to help stabilize the turf for the winter season. We can custom quote a service package to meet you specific needs. Call, text, or message for details.

We have had many clients ask about where we can and can not roll during our lawn rolling process. Here we will discuss a few.
Ditches- The roller we use is not able to roll a majority of ditches due to the width of the machine and its high center of gravity. This creates a danger of rollover. Occasionally we can get a limited part of ditches rolled if we can roll them head on rather than a side slope, but in these cases the cost is a little higher due to the difficulty and the additional time it takes to do this maneuver. Safety is always our #1 priority.

Areas with many exposed tree roots- These areas are very hard on the equipment and the tree roots.

Tight radius turns and sharp inside angles. Just can not get into these tight areas and repeated back and forth movement in tight turns scrubs the turf.

Steep hills and slopes. There are limitations of the ascending and descending abilities of the machinery. These are determined on a case by case basis by our skilled operators.

Wet surfaces. Obviously, rollers do not handle wet or muddy surfaces.

Under and around trees. The roller is somewhat tall is not able to get up close to and under many trees without causing risk to the operator being struck by tree branches.

Properties with irrigation systems without sprinkler heads being marked. A waiver of liability for damage is also required.

Limited access yards. Equipment requires a minimum of 38 inches of width to pass through any gate or doorway. We do not offer and gate or fence dismantling services to gain access due to liability concerns.

These factors are handled on a case by case basis and this list should not be viewed as all inclusive.

Now taking reservations for spring lawn rolling and/or plug aerating. The key to a beautiful healthy lawn is proper soil conditioning. And aeration is one of the key factors in setting up your lawn for success. We can roll your lawn first to smooth out all of the bumpiness and then follow up with plug aeration to open up pores in the surface which will allow water, nutrients, and oxygen to pe*****te the thatch layer and promote strong root growth. We also have the ability to overseed during the aeration process which drops the fresh grass seed deep into the plug holes from the aerator. This added process can supercharge your lawn's growth when adequately watered. Call us to schedule your rolling and aerating service and get the ball rolling on your smooth and healthy lawn.
