Lawn Overseeding

If your lawn is starting to look thin, uneven, or just plain tired, Greenscape Landscaping is here to help. Our expert lawn overseeding service is one of the easiest and most effective ways to revitalize your yard , filling in bare spots, thickening turf, and restoring healthy, vibrant grass without the need for costly sod or full renovation.

Over time, even well-maintained lawns can begin to thin due to seasonal stress, foot traffic, pests, or aging turf. When that happens, overseeding your yard with fresh, vigorous grass varieties helps improve density, enhance color, and boost your lawn’s overall resilience.

Whether you’re looking to over seed a lawn that’s patchy or simply want to keep your turf thick and lush, Greenscape’s overseeding service is a natural, non-invasive solution that delivers long-lasting results.

What Is Lawn Overseeding & Why It Works

Lawn overseeding is the process of spreading new grass seed directly over an existing lawn. Unlike complete re-sodding or turf replacement, this method keeps your current lawn intact while strengthening it from the inside out. It’s especially helpful for a lawn that’s struggling after summer heat, drought, or disease.

Benefits of overseeding include:

  • Fills in bare and thin areas without starting from scratch
  • Enhances turf density and appearance
  • Improves resistance to weeds, pests, and disease
  • Introduces stronger, more resilient grass varieties

Using high-quality grass seed for overseeding, matched to your yard’s sun, soil, and usage, ensures strong germination and long-term success. Our team takes the guesswork out by selecting the best seed blends for Spokane-area lawns.

Aeration and Overseeding: A Powerful Combo

While lawn overseeding can be effective on its own, combining it with core aeration gives you the best results. Aeration involves removing small plugs of soil from your lawn to relieve compaction and allow water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach the root zone.

Why pair them together?

  • Aeration improves seed-to-soil contact, which is critical for germination
  • Reduces thatch buildup and improves drainage
  • Helps the new grass root deeper and establish faster
  • Increases the overall success of your overseeding

If you’ve been searching for aeration and overseeding, our team offers both services in one convenient, results-driven package, perfect for fall or spring lawn restoration.

When to Overseed Your Lawn for Best Results

Timing matters when it comes to overseeding. In the Spokane area, the best time to overseed a lawn is in the early fall. Cooler temperatures and consistent moisture create the ideal environment for new grass seed to germinate and establish strong roots before winter.

That said, overseeding in spring can also be effective, especially if your lawn experienced damage over the winter or you want early-season thickening. We’ll help you determine the right time based on your lawn’s condition, goals, and schedule.

Whether you’re thinking about overseeding your lawn in fall or planning a spring refresh, we’ll ensure the timing works for your turf.

Our Overseeding Process

We take a thorough, results-focused approach to every overseeding job. Here’s what you can expect when you work with Greenscape Landscaping:

  1. Lawn Evaluation: We assess soil health, grass type, sun exposure, and trouble spots to customize your plan.
  2. Aeration (Optional but Recommended): We use professional equipment to loosen soil and prepare it for seeding.
  3. Seed Selection: We match your lawn with the right grass seed for overseeding, based on Spokane’s climate and your lawn’s specific needs.
  4. Seeding with a Grass Overseeder or Broadcast Spreader: We apply seed evenly for full, consistent coverage.
  5. Starter Fertilizer: To give your new grass the nutrients it needs to establish quickly and thrive.
  6. Aftercare Guidance: We’ll provide watering and mowing instructions to protect the new seedlings during establishment.

Our use of commercial-grade equipment, including a grass overseeder, ensures optimal seed-to-soil contact and even distribution, two of the biggest factors in successful overseeding.
