What is Top Dressing?

Top Dressing for Atlanta Lawns

Top dressing, also known as sanding, is a lawn care practice that improves the color and growth of turf grasses. By applying sand to any clay-based soil, you help to improve drainage and stimulate growth. Top dressing also aids in the leveling of small depressions in the lawn that may affect mowing consistency.

Our Top Dressing Mixture

Repair & Restore Your Lawn

All Turf uses a special mixture made up of 50% USGA White Sand and 50% ERTH Food for our top dressing treatments.

USGA White Sand & Erth Food

Top Dressing to Bring Your Atlanta Lawn Back to Life

USGA White Sand

This is the same white sand used to make bunkers on golf courses. We use this type of sand because it is the cleanest and produces the best results. Most other lawn care companies use river sand, which often contains weed ends and diseases.

ERTH Food

ERTH Food is an organic fertilizer made from compost that is rich with beneficial nutrients and microorganisms to promote healthy lawn growth. By mixing ERTH Food with the white sand, your lawn gets both a boost in nutrients and the ability to better retain those nutrients. Top dressing also works to:

  • Soften turf
  • Increase natural resistance to disease and pests
  • Provide extra support for tender root systems
  • Eliminate thatch
  • Level small depressions

 

Our Top Dressing Process

Before we come out, we’ll ask that you mow the grass at a very short height. This allows us to see depressions in the lawn and ensures even distribution of the Sand/Erth Food mixture into the soil. We will then:

  1. Core aerate the lawn.
  2. Apply the Sand/Erth Food mixture over the lawn with a professional topdressing machine, which distributes the mixture at a rate of .15-.25 inch depth over the lawn.
  3. Drag the sand into the turf with our drag mat and hand-fill any deep depressions.
