Lawn Overseeding in Boise

Overseeding is the process of broadcasting grass seed directly into existing lawns without tearing up or replacing the turf - it's one of the most effective and affordable ways to transform thin, struggling lawns into thick, lush carpets of green. This technique fills in bare spots, increases overall turf density, improves lawn color and uniformity, and introduces newer, improved grass cultivars that offer superior disease resistance, drought tolerance, and overall performance compared to the older grass varieties already in your lawn. For Idaho homeowners battling thin lawns, persistent weeds, or simply wanting that golf-course quality thickness, overseeding delivers remarkable results at a fraction of the cost of complete lawn renovation or sod replacement.

Our professional overseeding service goes far beyond simply throwing seed on your lawn. We start with proper seedbed preparation - this is critical and separates successful overseeding from wasted seed and money. Preparation typically involves core aeration to create thousands of perfect seed pockets with excellent seed-to-soil contact, or dethatching to expose soil and eliminate the thatch barrier that prevents seed germination.

Without this preparation, most seed sits on the surface, gets eaten by birds, or washes away with irrigation before ever germinating. We use only premium grass seed specifically selected for Idaho's climate and your specific conditions. For sunny areas, we use elite Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass blends featuring the newest cultivars with improved disease resistance, drought tolerance, and darker green color.
