Topsoil Dressing

What is Topsoil Dressing?

Our topsoil dressing is the process of thinly spreading a layer of compost mixed dirt over the existing grass. The purpose behind this goes back as far as the mid-1400s. Initially, the dressing targeted golf courses. But it has become a regular practice for property owners over the years who desire a lush, beautifully green yard.

For your lawn, mulch compost dressing would likely prove to be most beneficial. The mulch will help the soil produce the nutrients it needs to support the grass to grow thick and lush. Along with compost, iron supplementation may be a great option. Sometimes, the lawn can become iron deficient, and adding a supplement will promote chlorophyll, which helps with growth.

Top Three Benefits to Soil Dressing

There are several benefits to dressing, the number one benefit being gaining a healthy lawn. Another advantage is it aids in bringing life to the grounds. Here are three additional benefits every property owner should consider:

• The lawn maintains natural nutrients better. The topoil dressing acts as a safeguard against the elements that may decrease the nutrients needed for healthy growth.
• It reduces erosion and promotes a strong root structure, making it is less likely that heavy rainfall will erode your lawn.
• It promotes healthy plant life. The dirt offers an extra layer of defense for your plants and flowers by storing its nutrients.
