We offer a range of services to help improve the condition of your lawn using a customised series of treatments. These include: Scarification Scarification is a mechanical operation which helps to remove all unwanted organic matter from around the base of the grass plant (thatch) and tidy up any straggly lateral growth from your lawn.The process will also remove moss that will otherwise choke the grass plant and restrict growth. Aeration Aeration involves piercing the lawn to allow water, oxygen, fertilisers and other nutrients to penetrate the soil more effectively and reach the grass roots. There are two main types of aeration that are a benefit to the lawn. Solid tine aeration, which aids the development of the grass plant, and hollow core aeration which facilitates the application of a top dressing and improves drainage. Re-seeding TruGreen have specialised equipment which plants the seed at the correct depth, enabling the seed to germinate quicker and more successfully. Weed and Moss control Moss is something that every lawn will have to deal with at one time or another. Moss will manifest itself as a non flowering plant and will choke the grass, as well as starving it of the required nutrients. There are various reasons for the build up of moss in a lawn, but very damp and shaded areas are at most risk. Pest control There are a number of grass pests that are common in the UK. A grass pest is a creature that lives within the grass and feeds on the grass plant. Many grass pests feed on the root of the plant which causes a rapid deterioration in the condition of your lawn, causing large areas of discoloured grass and potentially a dead lawn. Disease control The development of most diseases are usually dependent upon weather conditions, so recent weather conditions are to be considered during any diagnosis. Most diseases will have certain characteristics such as discolouration of the grasses, brown, dry patches or signs of fungi (mushroom type growth). Fertiliser treatments Grass plants needs nutrition, and absorb their nutrients through their root system therefore a good soil rich in nutrients is essential for a healthy lawn. Fertilisation is a lawn treatment that provides, or supplements, the natural nutrients needed to become a healthy lawn.
