The engineer who got obsessed with dirt.
Dirt Deep exists because one man measured what everybody else was guessing at — why lawns really fail — and built the fix from the soil up.
Meet Mike
Mike Forostoski is an aerospace engineer and an Air Force cyber warfare officer who got obsessed with why lawns fail. He says it plainly himself: he has no agronomy certifications — his credential is engineering discipline and a veteran’s straightforwardness, applied to dirt. No shortcuts, no side roads: he measured, he tested, and he built the soil system himself — and he holds a patent for agricultural products.
That honesty is the brand. When a lawn’s real problem is irrigation, shade, or drainage, Mike’s program says so — because a system built on measurement doesn’t need miracles to sell.
Built on AquaLoch® soil technology
AquaLoch, LLC — veteran-owned & operated, based in Boerne, Texas — is the technology company behind Dirt Deep: the same soil-building system applied at farm and pasture scale, rebuilt here for neighborhood lawns. Dirt Deep is its residential service and franchise arm: the analysis, the seasonal program, and the service standard, delivered on your street.
“Good Things Grow From Good Soil.”
The Dirt Deep standard
What we promise
Consistent service, honest diagnosis, and records of everything applied to your lawn — and why.
What we don’t
A guaranteed lawn. No honest soil program can promise that, and we won’t start.
What still matters
Your irrigation, mowing, shade, and drainage. When one of those is the real problem, we’ll tell you — instead of spraying over it.
