Grand Valley ground is stubborn stuff — heavy adobe clay that packs down hard under a summer of footsteps and hose water. Never Mcphail Aeration & Lawn opens it back up: core aeration in the cool months, then mowing, trimming, edging and fertilizing as the Grand Junction growing season gets moving. Pull a plug of that soil in April and you can see exactly why the grass had been struggling. Roots want air, and giving it to them is the least dramatic and most useful thing anyone can do for a lawn. Leaf cleanup in fall closes the loop.
