Lawn Dethatching

A thorough dethatching service is a great part of an annul lawn care program for your turf. After time, grass and leaves do not fully decompose into your lawn’s soil. When this happens, the remnants turn to “thatch.”

What is thatch?

Thatch poses a problem as it’s a thick layer of non-decomposed material such as grass, leaves, and small twigs; that do not fully decompose into the soil of your lawn. When this occurs, thatch robs your lawn from absorbing all available nutrients such as fertilizer and water. Overtime thatch builds up and poses big problems for a healthy, green lawn.

What do I do?

When thatch is posing problems for your lawn, the best solution is to get rid of it. A thorough dethatching, or power raking service, usually corrects the problem. This service uses tine rakes attached to a commercial lawn mower or similar equipment; and vigorouly “de-thatches” or rakes out the dead grass from the lawn. We follow this up by hauling away all the debris.

After the debris is taken away and the thatch problem has been corrected, you are now ready for you weekly lawn mowing service.

Spring Clean Up

Spring clean up are essential to jump-start your lawn! A cleanup includes the removal of all leaves and yard debris from the lawn and all landscape beds, and a dethatching to all turf areas. All sidewalks, driveways and outdoor surfaces will be blown clean from debris that have accumulated over the winter.

At the time of the clean up, our highly-trained staff will keep an eye out for winter harms and other turf diseases. We can prevent any long-term damage your lawn may be at risk for. With your yard free of debris and thatch, it will finally be able to receive the nutrients it needs to grow healthy. All debris will be disposed of offsite, unless instructed by the homeowner to do otherwise. This service is performed in April/Early May.

Customer testimonials

Responsive, timely, thorough work! We missed out on mowing our lawn before the winter approaching and Ron was able to come out last minute and take care of our lawn (plus bagging and trimming) in under and hour. Highly recommend!

I would recommend this company to anybody looking for top notch outdoor services. Their prices are very reasonable, quality of the work is excellent, and the service is outstanding (e.g., responsive, timely and professional). I have worked with them for over 20 years and never once experienced a negative issue.
Lesley Scibora
Suburban Outdoor has several properties for us in the Twin Cities region, including Shakopee. They have been a partner for nearly 20 years and truly understand the value of our relationship. In a world, where trust is hard to come by, Ron and his wife April embody it. Thanks for being our fair and trusted partner.
Justin Hinks
Ron has helped us with sprinkler blowouts for the last two seasons and highly recommend him. He does a great job and is very knowledgeable and personable! We will be looking to have him help us with other lawn services in the Spring.
Emily Banaszewski
Prior lawn service changed their offerings & increased prices substantially. (which included applications not-needed). Contacted Suburban Outdoor: Ron provided what I needed, reduced to a recommended 2-application process at a fair price. Summer pre-pay option is nice for budgeting. Showed up on-time, did what he said he was going to do. Will be using their services again this summer.

We have used Suburban Outdoor Service for the last 8 years for lawn and snow. We have had zero complaints with them. Suburban replaced our last outdoor company who we had numerous complaints with. I would recommend them to anyone. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!!

Working with Ron at Suburban Outdoor Services has been a great experience. The fertilizing program has had amazing results. The open communication and high quality work were a welcome change from my previous experience with other companies. I couldn't be happier with their services and look forward to a long business relationship with them.
