For property owners in Waxhaw and Ballantyne, the heavy clay soil of the region can make it very difficult for your grass to grow. Over time, the ground becomes packed down so tightly that water and air cannot reach the roots and causing your Tall Fescue to struggle and turn brown. We use a professional process called Core Aeration to fix this problem by creating small pathways deep in the ground that help the soil stay loose and healthy.
Pine Valley Turf Management provides expert Soil Health and Lawn Care services designed to help your yard thrive in the tough North Carolina environment.
Why Your Roots Need More Air and Water
Improving the ground under your grass is the secret to a healthy and resilient landscape
Breaking Up Packed Down Ground: We use professional Core Aeration tools to create deep holes in the ground which allows the roots to finally get the air they need to grow.
Adding High Quality Nutrients: Our 2026 Soil Health plans include adding organic matter that helps the ground hold onto water much better than plain hard clay.
Fixing the Soil for Better Growth: Because local dirt is often packed too tightly, we use Lawn Fertilization to help your grass soak up more minerals once the soil is loosened.
Improving Drainage for Spring Rains: These small pathways help heavy spring rain soak into the ground instead of puddling on the surface of your Lawn.
Checking for Fast Root Growth: We do follow up visits to make sure your grass is responding well and growing the deep and strong roots it needs to survive the summer heat.
By fixing the soil today, you are setting your entire lawn up for a successful and green growing season.
