Overseeding Your Lawn Can Help You Avoid Costly Lawn Renovation
Is the grass legitimately greener on your neighbor's side? The solution to a thick, lush, green lawn might be overseeding.
Lawn health isn't just about color and appearance – it's about thickness and durability.
A healthy and full lawn naturally crowds out potential weeds by stealing their light, water, and nutrients.
Thick and healthy turf is always the best defense against lawn diseases and unwanted pests.
Overseeding can help you create a lawn that can stand up to drought conditions, extreme heat, and even foot traffic.
Lawn seeding is also a great way to prevent soil erosion by keeping your existing soil covered in healthy grass.
Overseeding is the process of spreading new grass seed across your existing lawn to fill in bare or thin areas. It introduces newer, stronger seed varieties that improve your lawn’s color, thickness, and resistance to disease, drought, and pests.
The process often introduces newer, superior grass varieties, leading to a lawn that is more resistant to:
Overseeding grass is something you can attempt on your own. However, it can be labour-intensive, and DIYers often struggle to achieve the results they’re looking for. For the best results (without the headaches or frustration), consider bringing in the professionals!
At Weed Man, we like to overseed grass in combination with our aeration service, which allows the seed to fall into the aeration holes and germinate, resulting in a thicker, healthier lawn.
With proper watering and care, you’ll typically notice germination within 1-2 weeks. Full results can be seen in 4-8 weeks, depending on grass type and weather conditions.
Yes, but combining overseeding with aeration delivers much better results. Aeration opens the soil, allowing seed-to-soil contact, better germination, and deeper root growth.
Overseeding is a cost-effective way to repair and thicken your lawn without the expense of sod. While sod gives instant coverage, overseeding gradually rejuvenates your turf at a fraction of the cost.
Yes. A thicker, denser lawn naturally crowds out weeds by blocking the sunlight, water, and nutrients they need to grow. Overseeding is one of the best natural weed prevention strategies.
Most lawns benefit from overseeding every year. The right schedule depends on your lawn’s condition, soil health, and overall maintenance program.
The best time to overseed is in the spring or fall when temperatures are cool, rainfall is more frequent, and the soil is moist. Soil temperatures must be above 55°F in order for the seed to germinate.
You will also want to prepare the soil. This is crucial for seed germination:

I've been with Weed Man for 2 years or more and man they have been very helpful. Being a working mom and having 50 million things to do and one of them is not having to worry about my lawn because I know Weed Man will take care of it. I was always trying to find new ingredients to help with the weeds in my lawn and how time consuming it was, now I just wait for Weed Man to put me on their schedule. The price to me is reasonable for the service they provide.

The Weed Man has successfully eradicated an enormous number of weeds in my backyard with their initial treatment. I have found the Weed Man to be exceptionally responsive to any requests that I have made. The service is competent and very friendly. I highly recommend this company! Post Season follow-up: Throughout the season (It is now mid-September), the Weed Man technician, Damien, provided excellent service and was immediately responsive to all of my requests. If there were a couple of instances of a weed or two reappearing, he gladly stopped by to treat it. It has been a pleasure using Weed Man, and I absolutely recommend its services to anyone with a weed issue. I will continue to use Weed Man on an annual basis.
