Our Microbial Lawn Aeration Services leverage this local expertise to enhance the health and vitality of your lawn.
Innovative Microbial Approach
Urban Landworks employs a cutting-edge microbial approach to lawn aeration. Instead of traditional mechanical aeration methods, our microbial aeration introduces beneficial microorganisms to the soil. This technique promotes natural soil aeration, nutrient absorption, and enhanced microbial activity, fostering a healthier and more resilient lawn.
Improved Soil Structure
Microbial Lawn Aeration from Urban Landworks contributes to improved soil structure. The introduction of beneficial microbes enhances soil composition, reducing compaction and promoting better water drainage. This results in a soil environment that supports robust root growth and overall turf health.
Enhanced Nutrient Absorption
Our microbial aeration services facilitate better nutrient absorption for your grass. By enhancing microbial activity in the soil, we create an environment where nutrients are more readily available to the roots, contributing to lush, green, and well-nourished turf.
The Microbial Lawn Aeration Process

-
Promotion of Microbial Activity: Beneficial microbes introduced during aeration stimulate microbial activity in the soil, contributing to the breakdown of organic matter and overall soil health.
-
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments: We continuously monitor the results of microbial lawn aeration, making adjustments as needed to ensure optimal outcomes for your lawn.

Reduce Soil Compaction with Soil Builder
Soil Builder is a natural, carbon-based food source for microbes in the soil, which promotes soil aeration and healthy plant growth. We use this process exclusively throughout the Bloomington, & surrounding areas of Hennepin County, MN. By feeding and energizing the microbes living in the soil, the increased physiological actions of the native soil microbes naturally reduce the soil’s bulk density, breaking up the hard clay and reducing compaction, improving the growing characteristics of the soil. Soil Builder is perfect for areas where it’s challenging to get a mechanical aerator or when aeration and verticutting are not recommended, such as springtime. It also works well for chlorosis trees and in flower beds with compacted soil.
Lawn Aeration without Machines
Soil Builder is the perfect product for aerating lawns when you can’t use a mechanical aerator, such as root dense areas beneath trees, areas you can’t reach with a mechanical aerator, including flower beds. Many home owners in the Bloomington area choosing Urban Landworks to take care of this for them. The granular formula is designed to feed the microbes in the soil and use their life cycle to add space to the soil and make nutrients available for plants.
Mechanical Aeration: Core Aeration and Over Seeding Service
Core Aeration loosens the soil to allow air, water, nutrients and food to absorb in the roots of your grass. Aerating allows roots to grow strong to produce a healthy lawn. We also provide Over Seeding to reinforce the soil structure by providing added seed. It is important for you to aerate and over seed your Bloomington, MN area property regularly on a regular basis (once per year) because compacted soil can squish the roots, inhibiting their ability to function. It is the single healthiest additional service we can provide for your lawn. The most ideal time for lawn aeration is during the growing season. This is because the grass will then be able to grow to fill in any open areas punctured in the soil. We offer this service only in the Fall.

Have Questions About Lawn Aeration? We Have Answers!
What is Microbial Lawn Aeration and how does it differ from traditional core aeration?
Traditional aeration uses heavy machinery to pull physical “plugs” or cores of soil from your lawn. Microbial Lawn Aeration (also known as liquid or granular aeration) is a cutting-edge approach that uses a specially formulated blend of beneficial microorganisms and carbon. Instead of just creating holes, this product stimulates the native soil biology to naturally decompress the soil from the inside out. It restructures the soil at a molecular level, reducing bulk density without leaving thousands of messy dirt plugs on your lawn.
Why is microbial aeration a better choice for my Bloomington lawn?
In Bloomington and the surrounding Twin Cities, our soil is often heavy in clay, which leads to severe compaction. While mechanical aeration only affects the spots where a plug is pulled, Microbial Lawn Aeration covers 100% of the surface area. The microbes travel deep into the soil profile—often deeper than a mechanical tine can reach—breaking up hard clay and creating microscopic pathways for air and water. This results in more consistent root growth across your entire yard.
What are the primary benefits of choosing a microbial approach?
- No Messy Plugs: You won’t have soil cores littering your yard, Paver Patios, or Paver Driveways.
- Total Coverage: Every square inch of your turf is treated, not just where a machine can reach.
- Soil Health: It introduces beneficial bacteria and fungi that are over 100x more active than standard compost.
- Increased Chlorophyll: Many homeowners notice a deeper, more vibrant green color due to enhanced nutrient uptake.
- Sprinkler Safety: Because there are no mechanical tines, there is zero risk of damaging your Mr. Rain Irrigation heads or shallow utility lines.
How does microbial aeration improve my lawn’s water efficiency?
Compacted soil acts like a brick, causing water from your Irrigation Service to run off into the street rather than soaking into the roots. By reducing the soil’s bulk density, Microbial Lawn Aeration increases the soil’s “porosity.” This allows water to penetrate deeper and stay there longer. This means your Lawn Restoration project stays hydrated with less water, saving you money and protecting your Trees & Shrubs during dry Minnesota Augusts.
When is the best time to perform microbial aeration in Minnesota?
One of the best features of this service is its flexibility. Unlike mechanical aeration, which is largely restricted to the spring or fall when the ground is soft, Microbial Lawn Aeration can be performed successfully at almost any time during the growing season. However, we often recommend applying it in the spring to “wake up” the soil or in the fall to prepare the root system for the winter dormancy period.
Is the microbial treatment safe for my family and pets?
Yes, absolutely. The formulas we use for Microbial Lawn Aeration are organic-based and completely safe for children and pets. Unlike some chemical treatments, there is no “wait time” required before you can get back on your grass. It’s an environmentally friendly way to improve your Landscape Maintenance routine while keeping your backyard a safe place for your family to play.
How does this service integrate with my fertilization and weed control?
Microbial aeration is the “secret sauce” that makes your Lawn Fertilizing & Weed Control more effective. By opening up the soil structure, the nutrients in our professional-grade fertilizers can reach the root zone much faster. Healthy, active microbes also help break down organic matter (thatch), which prevents weeds from finding a foothold. It turns your soil into a nutrient-rich “sponge” that feeds your grass more efficiently between Residential Mowing visits.
Can microbial aeration help fix "dead spots" or thinning grass?
If your lawn has thinning patches caused by poor soil quality or heavy foot traffic, Microbial Lawn Aeration is a critical first step in a Lawn Restoration. By stimulating root proliferation and improving soil density, it creates the ideal environment for new seeds or sod to take hold. We often combine this service with overseeding to fill in bare spots and ensure your Bloomington lawn looks thick, lush, and uniform.
How often should I have my lawn microbially aerated?
For most Bloomington properties with standard clay soil, we recommend one application per year as part of your regular Landscape Maintenance. However, for lawns with severe compaction issues or those undergoing a major Lawn Restoration, a twice-yearly application (spring and fall) can accelerate the soil’s recovery. Our team will assess your soil during our initial visit to determine the best frequency for your specific site.
