All year-round lawn care to keep your lawn looking its best we offer the following treatments:
Removal of moss - moss normally thrives in shady areas. If left untreated it will overtake the grass plants and kill off the lawn. Treatment is through a lawn sand or liquid iron.
Feeding - using a granular fertiliser will supply your lawn with nutrients to maintain a healthy sward giving it a lush appearance. Feeds are applied 4-5 times a year, weather dependant.
Weed control - either a blanket whole lawn or spot spray to remove unwanted weeds in the turf surface.
Leatherjacket control - a chemical treatment for leatherjackets, the larva of crane flies (Daddy Long Legs), that eat grass roots and destroy your lawn.
Mechanical maintenance to keep your lawn looking its best.
Scarifying - a machine operation that slices through the grass sward that will remove dead organic matter from the base. If left, this prevents water and feed reaching the base of the plant and also the soil.
Aeration - mechanically punching holes in the lawn to relieve compaction in the soil and improve the gas exchange between stagnant air and fresh oxygen. It also allows nutrients, seed and moisture to get into the soil structure.
We will work together to design a programme specifically for your lawn’s needs that works within your budget.
When we would carry out these services?
Regular lawn mowing service throughout the year.
We can provide this on a weekly or fortnightly basis. It consists of mowing the lawn and trimming the edges.
Ideal for home owners who can no longer mow the lawn or who are time-strapped and wish to enjoy their lawn in their leisure time.
Landlords can improve letting opportunities for a property by presenting a well cut and managed lawn to prospective tenants.
