Autumn is part of our seasonal treatment programme. We don’t offer it as a one-off treatment.

What we do on the autumn visit

  • A foliar feed with iron and seaweed. It goes on to the leaves and is taken in quickly, to strengthen the grass before winter.
  • Moss kept in check. The iron dries the moss out, which is what controls it.
  • Organic seaweed. It frees up nutrients that have become locked in the soil.

Why seaweed

Farmers and gardeners have used seaweed as a soil improver for centuries. Ours comes from a sustainable source off the west coast of Ireland.

It contains many of the micronutrients plants need that aren’t always available in the soil. It also contains alginates, which improve clay soil and help hold water in the topsoil.

Seaweed is part of every autumn and winter visit. You can upgrade to have it on every visit, all year.

What you’ll see afterwards

Moss that has been treated turns black. That is the moss drying out and dying back.

We leave a card after every visit, telling you what we did and what to do next.

Other jobs that suit autumn

Autumn is a good time for aeration, to relieve compaction, and scarification, to remove moss and thatch. Both are add-ons for clients on our treatment programme.

We work in partnership with our clients to create beautiful lawns

Because of our work on social media, we get far more enquiries than we can take on. We only take on a small number of new lawns each year, and it takes three short steps to find out if yours can be one of them.

1. Check your postcode

Pop it into the checker to see if you are on our route.

2. Submit your lawn details

Fill in the short form so we can review your garden.

3. We'll be in touch

We'd love to help everyone, but our limited capacity means we can't take on every garden. If yours is a good fit, we'll get in touch.
