Before we make any recommendations we will visit you and carry out a FREE lawn survey.

Our STANDARD ANNUAL PROGRAMME consists of four treatments for your lawn between early Spring and late Autumn. In addition we offer specialised Winter/Spring treatments to aerate and de-thatch your lawn and aid drainage and moss control.

All of our treatments are designed to improve the health and ultimately the look of your
lawn.

Four regular lawn feed and separate weed and moss applications:

  1. March/May As the growing season gets under way the controlled release
    fertiliser gives your grass that initial boost for Spring to aid growth and
    colour. As appropriate we will also spray emerging broad leafed weeds such
    as plantains, dandelions and daisies.

  2. May/July As Summer approaches and the growing season enters its second
    phase our next application of granular fertiliser provides additional nutrients
    for your lawn. We again check and treat broad leafed weeds as well as
    targeting other varieties.

  3. July/September Often a difficult time for lawns with our unpredictable
    climate. We apply a third treatment of granular fertiliser checking again for
    the more stubborn weeds and treating accordingly.

  4. September/November As the growing season draws to an end we focus on
    conditioning the grass to help protect against frost in readiness for Winter.
    This can be granular or in liquid form. We also apply an all important moss
    control.

The fertilisers we apply all use slow release/no scorch technology and all at a cost less than you can do it yourself.


Mechanical scarification and aeration


These specialised Winter/Spring treatments are intended to de-thatch and aerate your lawn and help drainage and moss control. They are optional services but are highly recommended as being beneficial for a sustained and effective programme of lawn improvement. They significantly help to eliminate the environment in which moss thrives and complement the late Autumn application of liquid moss control.

Scarification

  • Mechanically removes the built up surface thatch from your lawn.

  • Aids removal of moss growth especially when carried out after our Autumn
    moss control treatment.

  • Helps moss reduction where surface thatch is a major cause.

Aeration

  • Hollow tine aeration is the most effective way of reducing soil compaction.

  • Thousands of plugs of soil are extracted from your lawn allowing surface water, nutrients and oxygen more easily to enter the root system.

  • Helps remove surface thatch.

  • We also offer solid tine aeration as an alternative.

  • Both aid drainage and moss control.

  • Both can be combined with Top Dressing your lawn

Scarification can be carried out more than once a year if required but it should be sufficient to aerate your lawn every two years.


Disease, insect and hard surface treatments

We can advise you on specific problems with your lawn such as diseases and insect infestation as well as apply weed control to drives and patios. If needed appropriate treatments can be carried out for you at additional cost.


Our Promise to You


We will not recommend any treatment unless it is evident from our survey that it will be beneficial to your lawn.
