Signs Your Lawn Needs Dethatching

  • What to Watch For

    If you’re unsure whether your lawn needs dethatching, here are some common signs to watch for:

  • Spongy Feel

    Walking across your lawn feels bouncy or uneven.

  • Water Runoff

    Water doesn’t absorb easily and tends to pool or run off.

  • Discoloration

    Patches of yellow or brown grass that don’t respond to watering or fertilizing.

  • Thick Thatch Layer

    You can physically lift a thick layer of dead material between the soil and the green grass.

  • Poor Growth

    Grass appears weak, thin, or unable to establish strong roots. If you notice any of these symptoms, it may be time to schedule a professional dethatching service with The Grounds Guys of Bend, OR.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

At The Grounds Guys, we strive to provide knowledgeable and professional service and want to ensure your questions are answered.

  • Choosing the right lawn care professionals can make all the difference. Here’s why homeowners in Bend trust us with their lawns:

  • Locally Owned and Operated: We understand the unique climate and soil conditions of Central Oregon and tailor our services accordingly.

  • Eco-Conscious Practices: We’re committed to using sustainable methods that support a healthier environment.
  • Satisfaction Guaranteed: We stand behind our work and aren’t happy unless you are.
  • Most lawns only need dethatching every 2 to 3 years, but this can vary depending on the grass type, soil conditions, and maintenance practices. Lawns with fast-growing grass or excessive fertilizer use may require more frequent dethatching.

  • The best times to dethatch your lawn in Bend are early spring or early fall. These seasons provide ideal growing conditions that help your lawn recover quickly and take advantage of the improved access to nutrients, air, and water.

  • When performed by professionals using the right equipment and techniques, dethatching is safe and highly beneficial for your lawn. While there may be some temporary thinning, the long-term results are thicker, greener, and healthier grass.

  • Thatch is a layer of organic material that lies between the green grass and the soil surface. A small amount of thatch (less than ½ inch thick) is normal and even beneficial, as it can help protect the roots and retain moisture. However, when thatch builds up to more than ½ inch, it can become a serious problem. Excessive thatch can:

    • Block water and nutrients from reaching the roots
    • Encourage pest infestations and lawn diseases
    • Create a spongy, uneven surface
    • Restrict oxygen flow to the soil
    • Hinder healthy grass growth and seed germination
    Our professional dethatching service removes this compacted layer and opens up your lawn so it can breathe, absorb, and thrive. Whether you’re dealing with a small residential yard or a sprawling property, our team has the tools and experience to get your lawn back on track.

  • Timing is crucial when it comes to dethatching. In Bend, the ideal time for dethatching is typically in early spring or early fall, depending on your grass type. These seasons offer optimal conditions for your lawn to recover and thrive after the procedure. Don’t wait until problems get worse—proactive care today can prevent costly repairs down the road. Take the first step toward a greener, thicker lawn—schedule your dethatching service with our Bend, OR team today!
