Maintenance

It’s common for lawns to develop thatch over time which encourages weeds, moss poor drainage and lack of nutrients in the soil.

Hollow-tine aeration

This is the most effective way of re-livening a lawn of thatch by taking out hundred of cores from the lawn. This is known as ‘thinning the thatch’ and relives compaction. The cores are left on the lawn as they are bio-degradable. Hollow tine aeration can be done most times of the year and is recommended once a year. Very heavily used gardens may require two aerations a year.

Moss is probably the biggest problem in lawns due to compaction, if you have moss aeration is the best way of tackling it to help stimulate growth of grass.

Scarification

Over the time of a year or more grass cuttings, leaves and organic matter all increase the amount of thatch which forms at the root of the grass stem. As it gets thicker it prevents nutrients reaching the root, so this becomes a perfect breeding ground for moss. Scarification is the mechanical process of removing the thatch with a powered rake to bring the thatch to the surface of the lawn helping you get a more healthy lawn.
