Spring Is Coming
As the days lengthen and temperatures rise, spring is the perfect time to prepare your garden for the year ahead. Here's our guide to getting your outdoor space in top condition.
Lawn Care Essentials
March-April:
- Rake out dead grass and moss (scarifying)
- Apply a spring lawn feed with high nitrogen content
- Overseed bare patches once soil temperatures reach 8°C
- Start mowing on a high setting (4-5cm)
Pro tip: If your lawn is more moss than grass, it might be time to consider fresh turf or artificial grass. We can help with both.
Patio Maintenance
Winter can be hard on patios. Here's how to refresh yours:
Fence and Boundary Checks
Winds and wet weather take their toll on fencing:
- Check posts for rot at ground level
- Tighten any loose panels or boards
- Apply preservative treatment to bare wood
- Consider replacing tired fencing before summer entertaining
