If the lawn feels spongy, thatch is the problem<\/h2>\n

<\/span>Looking for dethatching<\/a> in Foxboro, MA? Ten Four Landscape & Construction has handled it for homeowners, business owners and property managers across Norfolk County since 2012. Our Wrentham yard is also about twenty minutes away.<\/pee>Dethatching is the lawn service people do not know they need until they see the pile. A thick thatch layer makes a lawn feel spongy, sheds water, shelters grubs and fungus and blocks fertilizer, so the more you feed and water, the worse it looks. Foxboro homeowners have relied on us as their local landscaper<\/a> for years. So we bring that same approach to every dethatching job in town.<\/pee>We check the thatch depth first, because a thin layer is healthy and deserves to stay put. When it is over half an inch, we power rake the lawn to pull the dead material out and remove it. Then we follow with overseeding and a feeding, so the lawn fills back in thicker than before. Combined with core aeration, it is the reset an old, tired lawn needs.<\/pee>\n

Why Foxboro, MA homeowners call Ten Four for Dethatching<\/h2>\nFoxboro is best known for Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place on Route 1, but the town we work in most days is residential. Think colonials and capes on wooded lots around the historic common, neighborhoods off Mechanic Street, Chestnut Street and North Street, and larger rural parcels near F. Gilbert Hills State Forest. We also maintain commercial properties along the Route 1 and Route 140 corridors, where a clean, safe frontage is part of doing business.<\/pee>Foxboro sits on some of the rockiest ground in Norfolk County. Granite ledge and boulders are close to the surface across much of the town, which changes how we excavate for patios, walls and drainage. Thin soil over rock also dries out fast in midsummer. The low areas near the Neponset Reservoir, Lake Mirimichi and the Cocasset River stay wet. So grading and drainage are usually part of the conversation on any Foxboro property.<\/pee>\n
