Clear Out Thatch and Wake Up Your Lawn This Spring

Power raking removes layers of dead grass, roots, and lawn debris (called “thatch”) that build up over time and prevent your lawn from breathing. In Richmond and Vancouver’s damp climate, this layer gets compacted faster — making power raking a smart early-season service to kickstart healthy grass growth.

It’s one of the most impactful ways to improve lawn health without chemicals.

Why Power Raking Matters

If your lawn feels spongy underfoot or looks dull after winter, a power rake can make a noticeable difference fast.

What to Expect

We use professional-grade power raking equipment designed to gently lift thatch without damaging healthy grass. After the service, we’ll rake up the loosened material and clear it from your property.

Power raking is usually done in early spring before the lawn becomes too lush — but we’ll assess timing based on your yard’s condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

The best time is early spring (March to mid-April) when the ground is thawed, but before rapid grass growth begins.
They’re similar. Dethatching uses tines to pull deep thatch from the soil, while power raking is a gentler surface-level method — better suited for most Richmond & Vancouver lawns.
If your lawn is thinning or patchy, this is a great time to add overseeding. We can advise during your estimate.
