Lawn Maintenance Our lawn maintenance consists of the
cutting of the lawn, string trimming of the perimeter of the house and walkways,
raking off of any excess grass, and blowing off of walkways and driveways
to ensure all grass clippings are cleaned up. Lastly we bill our lawn maintenance
accounts at the end of the month and ask that our clients pay promptly.
Dethatching
Dethatching is a process similar to the Spring Cleanup. The
main difference is the addition of a machine mounted rake and a more intensive
raking process. The goal is to remove debris from the turf, but also to
remove heavy excessive thatch to rejuvenate the lawn. Dethatching also prepares
the lawn for our basic overseeding service.
Core Aeration
Core Aeration entails using a machine to remove plugs of soil from the lawn.
These cores are removed so that the compacted soil structure will be opened
and oxygen can be introduced to the plant roots. Aeration will also allow
better infiltration of water and fertilizer to the root zone. This service
will also encourage root development of existing turf, prepare a seed bed
for overseeding activities, and allow for the easy introduction of soil
adjustment products, such as lime. This is perhaps one of the top three
most important lawn maintenance activities to be performed each year. Aeration
is beneficial any time the grass is actively growing.
Overseeding
Overseeding is a process by which new varieties of seed are introduced to
your lawn. We apply this seed using a drop spreader. For best results, unless
the ground has no existing grass, overseeding needs to be incorporated with
Core Aeration and Dethatching.
