FAQs

What lawn care tasks should I do, and in what order, each season?

While exact timing depends on your grass type and climate, a general routine includes dethatching or scarifying (like with the GVB1316 or GV1212B) to clear built-up debris, tilling (like with the CLTE2409 or CLTE4814) if you're preparing new planting areas, then regular mowing and trimming to maintain the lawn through the growing season.

Do I need a dethatcher and a tiller, or do they do the same job?

They serve different purposes. A dethatcher removes the layer of dead grass and debris sitting on top of established soil, while a tiller breaks into the soil itself, useful for preparing new garden beds or working compacted ground. If your lawn is already established and just needs maintenance, a dethatcher alone is likely sufficient.

Which outdoor tools help prepare my lawn for new grass seed?

The scarifiers and dethatchers (GVB1316, GV1212B, CLGVB4816) help clear thatch and debris to improve seed-to-soil contact, and the tillers (CLTE2409, CLTE4814) can help loosen compacted soil if you're reseeding a larger or particularly hard area.

What's the best starting point if I'm setting up a new lawn care routine?

For an established lawn, start with a dethatcher or scarifier to clear built-up debris before your next mowing season. For a new lawn or garden bed, a tiller is the better starting point to prepare the soil itself.

A healthy lawn takes more than mowing, LawnMaster's Lawn Care collection covers the maintenance tasks that keep grass thriving season after season. Dethatchers and scarifiers clear built-up debris so water and nutrients can reach the soil, while tillers prepare new beds or loosen compacted ground for planting.

Timing matters for lawn care tasks, dethatching in early fall or late spring depending on your grass type, tilling before a new planting season. LawnMaster's cordless and corded tools give you the flexibility to tackle these jobs on your own schedule rather than waiting on a lawn service.

Pair these maintenance tools with LawnMaster's mowers and trimmers for a complete year-round lawn care routine.
