Fairway Lawns

I have a lawn that is mostly weeds and splotchy grass. The customer wants to completely redo the whole lawn ~ approx 2k sq ft. The cust. has previously laid sod, scarified the soil and spread seed, and over seeded. None of these methods have worked considering we have this problem now.
Now....I have considered a couple of options
1- Light spraying of round-up to kill existing growth, (What do I do with leftover weed/grass debris? Rake up or do nothing?), aerate, then slit/over seed, low N growth/starter fert, straw.
2- Aerate, spray selective herbicide, then slit/over seed, low N growth/starter fert, straw
3- How would I go about prepping for Hydro seeding?
What have you guys done that works well? ANY help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
