Is Your Grass Suffocating Under a Matted Mess?

If your lawn in Mundelein looks dull, spongy, or just refuses to green up like your neighbor’s — there’s a good chance thatch is the problem.

At Evo Lawn & Landscape, we offer professional dethatching services that tear through built-up organic debris and give your lawn room to breathe, grow, and thrive. It’s one of the most overlooked lawn care services — but it makes a huge difference.

What Is Thatch and Why Is It a Problem?

Thatch is a dense layer of dead grass, roots, and stems that builds up between your green grass and the soil. A little thatch is normal — but more than ½ inch? That’s trouble.

Too much thatch:

Blocks water, air, and nutrients from reaching the soil
Chokes out healthy grass roots
Increases pests and fungal diseases
Makes your lawn feel squishy and sponge-like

Dethatching removes this layer and restores direct contact between the soil and everything your grass needs to thrive.

What’s Included in Our Dethatching Service In Mundelein?

Full-lawn mechanical dethatching using a professional power rake
Bagging and removal of the thatch debris
Follow-up mowing
Optional: Core Aeration, Starter fertilizer or overseeding for repair

💡 Ideal time for dethatching in Mundelein: early spring or early fall, when grass is actively growing.

FAQs – Lawn Dethatching In Mundelein, IL

How much does dethatching cost in Mundelein?
Prices typically starts at $120+, depending on the size of your lawn and how much thatch needs to be removed.

Is dethatching the same as aeration?
No — dethatching removes dead surface material, while aeration pulls plugs from the soil to relieve compaction. They work great together for a full lawn renovation.

How do I know if my lawn needs dethatching?
If your lawn feels spongy when you walk on it or water runs off instead of soaking in, you likely have too much thatch. We can inspect and let you know.

Will dethatching damage my lawn?
If done correctly (and we know what we’re doing), dethatching temporarily stresses the lawn — but it quickly bounces back healthier and greener than before.
