Treatments
Spring Treatment
The spring treatment comprises of a no scorch lawn fertiliser designed to cope with low temperatures. It contains nutrients that not only greens up the lawn but also strengthens the lawn.
Early Summer Treatment
The early summer treatment includes a specially designed feed. It has a higher nitrogen content but more importantly its a no-scorch controlled release fertiliser. This it makes the lawn green with little watering needed
Late Summer Treatment
The late summer treatment we apply a non-scorch granular fertiliser slightly smaller than early summer that is controlled released. This helps the lawns to turn green, lush and strong.
Autumn/Winter Treatment
This is a vital treatment as winter approaches, we cover the lawn in a liquid feed. This is vital as it is a turf hardner which controls moss and strengthens the lawn for the cold days/nights ahead.
Optional Extras
Machine Scarification
Machine Scarification, we carry out this treatment just before spring while or just before the grass springs into life again. We never scarify before winter as the lawns need good recovery time if doing it properly we find just before spring is best, we do a light to moderate scarification taking most of the moss out but not all and most of the thatch out, we do this to encourage growth and the remaining moss will be overtaken by the new grass, its a fine balance but doing a heavy scarification can take months or over a year to recover with little benefit whats so ever. We bag up the moss and thatch for your disposal. Please note when scarification is carried out the lawn will look quite horrid please be aware it will take 7/9 weeks to recover, we will in most cases put a little feed on after wards to help with recovery. Average price £95 takes 2/3 hours.
