Pre-emergent and disturbing it

[jws3]

I have been doing my pre-emergent applications with Team. I have some customers that have now decided they either want their lawns rolled and or aerated. The aeration I won't do because of the soil disturbence, but what about the rolling?When I mean rolling I'm talking a small asphalt roller. I don't want to get into the compaction issue as I have been doing this many years with excellent results(With fall aeration). SO, if the soil surface is not being broken or penetrated, will the rolling end my pre-emergent control. Thanks in advance

Do the aeration, then charge em for another preemergent app in anothewr month.

Rolling will not disturb the pre-em already established. Also core aerating will not destroy the barrier - it is basically just a redistribution of the pre-em chemical. See this old thread (http://www.lawnsite.com/showthread.php?threadid=1599) for more detail.
