We need a minimum of a 5 foot opening in any fences or between buildings. Please remove any objects or obstacles in the work area prior to our arrival.
Graystone Tractor Services offers residential rototilling services. Our 4 foot wide, tractor mounted rototiller is very versatile and its compact size allows
it to fit in smaller yards.
Our rototiller is very versatile and useful in smaller or larger areas. In addition to cultivation uses, it makes lawn replacement a breeze by grinding up
your old grass and weeds and restoring it to raw dirt. It is also useful after clearing off brush or unwanted vegetation, to grind up more hidden roots, in
addition to breaking up the dirt, allowing the ground to be leveled off easier.
Our rototiller is capable of grinding up virgin ground, as well as ground that has previously been used for cultivation. In addition to vegetable and flower garden
cultivation, our rototiller services are perfect for residential landscaping, turning poor quality lawns or overgrown areas into fresh dirt, ready for lawn seeding.

Frequently asked questions:
We can help get you on the road to a lush, green lawn very quickly. Our standard approach would be to
1. Use our rototiller attachment on your existing lawn, which would grind up the root system of your old grass and weeds and leave behind a mixture of dirt and mulch.
2. The second step would be to spread a couple inches of quality topsoil over the rototilled area.
3. The third step when the outdoor temperature is 50 degrees or above, would be to re-seed the topsoiled area and lightly rake the seed under a thin cover of topsoil.
4. The forth step is to add water via hose or sprinkler to the soil to ensure that the area stays moist, which will promote germination of the seed.
5. Kept moist, you should begin to see new grass shoots within 2 weeks. At this point, we would recommend that you sprinkle a natural fertilizer such as Morganite over the entire area.
6. After a few weeks, you should overseed the new area in bare spots by sprinkling new grass seed to fill in any voids.
7. Enjoy your new lawn.
Weed control: Rototilling can help get rid of weeds when they are young, preventing them from growing into a problem.
Aeration: Rototilling can add air back into soil that has been compacted by foot traffic, wheelbarrows, and other heavy equipment.
Improved soil fertility: Rototilling breaks up soil into smaller particles, which improves air circulation and nutrient distribution.
Better root growth: Rototilling loosens compacted soil, which allows water to penetrate more deeply and helps plants access nutrients.
Reduced erosion: Rototilling can help reduce erosion by breaking up compacted soil.
Eliminates potential pests: Rototilling can disrupt soil-borne larvae and insects that overwinter in the soil.
Saves time and labor: Rototillers can help you do the job faster than manual tools.
Saves costs: Rototillers can be inexpensive to rent compared to labor costs.
Enhances water absorption: Rototilling loosens the soil structure, which allows water to penetrate more deeply.
Under ideal conditions, it is possible to deeply rototill 1/4 acres in a little over an hour. This will include several passes over each area in different directions.
