Spring & Fall Clean-up
Spring & Fall are important times to take action when it comes to your lawn and our Spring and Fall yard cleanups are essential, comprehensive, seasonal maintenance routines that protect landscape health and boost curb appeal. Spring focuses on recovery, removing winter debris, dethatching, and prepping beds, while fall focuses on winterization through leaf removal, pruning, and protecting plants to ensure a healthy, vibrant and orderly outdoor space.
Spring Cleanup
Recovery and Readiness – Hurray! Winter is over and Spring is here. Now is the time to take action to get your lawn ready for a beautiful, healthy and enjoyable summer. As the weather warms, we will jump ahead of it and perform the following spring clean-up tasks.
- Debris Removal: Clearing away winter’s leftover debris, including twigs, branches, pinecones, and dead, matted grass.
- Lawn Revitalization: Dethatching (removing dead grass buildup) and removing debris to allow for proper air circulation and fertilizer penetration.
- Garden Preparation: Edging flower beds for a defined, clean edge, removing old mulch, and pruning dead wood from shrubs and trees.
- Soil Preparation: Aerating to improve drainage and nutrients.
Fall Cleanup
Winterization and Protection – As summer ends, we’re in full gear planning tasks to prepare your lawn for overwintering. Taking action now is vital; fall maintenance is the difference between a lush spring return and a patchy recovery.
- Leaf and Debris Removal: Clearing fallen leaves and debris to prevent suffocation of the grass, mold, fungus, and pest habitats.
- Perennial Pruning: Cutting back perennials and removing dead plants to prevent harboring pests through the winter.
- Lawn Care: A final mow and cleaning of lawn areas to keep turf healthy and manageable through the winter.
- Garden Protection: Removing weeds and adding a layer of mulch to protect plant roots from freezing temperatures.
