A beautiful, well maintained lawn is a real showpiece for your home and garden, and with the right lawn care strategies it’s not that hard to get the rub of green.

• Good mowing practice is essential. You should be mowing once or twice a week in summer. In winter it’s much less, monthly depending on location.
• When your lawn gets too thick and spongey it’s due to too much thatch, a build up of old clippings and vegetation under the leaves, This prevents air and water penetration if too thick and uneven and difficult mowing
• Compaction is another common problem due to wear and tear and traffic, preventing essential air and water penetration.
• Use a good fertiliser every 6 weeks from the start of spring until mid autumn.
