Lawn Dethatching Services in Spokane, WA

Revive Your Lawn with Expert Dethatching

Spruce Lawn Care helps Spokane lawns thrive by removing thatch buildup for better growth, color, and overall health.

What Is Lawn Dethatching?

Lawn dethatching is the process of removing the dense layer of dead grass, roots, and organic matter—known as thatch—that builds up between the soil surface and your grass blades. While a small amount of thatch is healthy, too much blocks water, nutrients, and air from reaching the roots.

At Spruce Lawn Care, we use specialized dethatching equipment to safely and effectively remove excess thatch, giving your lawn room to breathe and grow.

Signs Your Lawn Needs Dethatching

If your lawn is looking patchy, spongy, or seems to resist water absorption, it might be time for dethatching. Common signs include:

  • Thatch layer thicker than ½ inch

  • Poor drainage or water pooling

  • Yellowing grass despite watering

  • Increased weed growth

  • Mushy or bouncy feel underfoot

Benefits of Dethatching

Regular dethatching is one of the best ways to promote a thick, healthy lawn. Here’s what it does:

  • Improves air and nutrient flow to roots

  • Enhances water penetration and reduces runoff

  • Encourages stronger, deeper root systems

  • Boosts lawn thickness and color

  • Prepares lawn for overseeding and fertilization
