Stef’s lawn care offers bespoke treatment plans over 12 months to keep your lawn healthy. Lawns, just like all other parts of the garden require attention to keep them looking great.
We offer different treatment plans depending on budget and requirements. Typically we suggest a treatment plan of 6 treatments per year (5 plus aeration) to maintain and improve the health of a lawn. All of our plans include at least one organic treatment to aid soil life. We also offer fully organic treatment plan and a plan where we visit once a month, where we are able to give the lawn exactly what it needs and treat to the highest of standards.
After contacting Stef’s lawn care we will arrange a site visit where we can examine your lawn and the soil structure and make recommendations on the best way to proceed.
Lawn treatments. We have access to a wide range of professional fertilisers and as a bespoke service we will only use the product which will benefit your lawn.
Soil core samples are important because they show us what’s going on beneath the layer of turf, which is sometimes more important than what’s happening above. It’s also important to consider the PH and soil type.
Scarification is the mechanical removal of dead material in your lawn and plays a critical element in lawn health. A maintenance scarification is recommended to be carried out once a year to keep the lawn on top shape. A heavy scarification may be necessary to renovate your lawn.
Aeration is the single most important task that improves the health of a lawn. Thousands of holes are punched into a lawn to increase airflow, access to water and to relieve compaction. It’s also a good time to incorporate a high quality grass seed. There are a few different types of aeration and the correct one will be advised depending on the situation.
Top dressing- This is sometimes added to the existing lawn to help the soil structure and to aid in seed germination.
Lawn renovations- this is sometimes required if your lawn needs a lot of attention or even needs to be started from scratch.
