Almost every lawn can use a little fixing up or repairing, and the end of summer (or early fall) is just about the best time to do it.
Just like any other “remodeling” job, it’s best to have a good plan, or blueprint, of what needs doing before you begin. Let’s start with some possible needs:
• Aeration for thatch control
• Spot seeding to fill bare patches
• Slice seeding to thicken the lawn
• Complete renovation to rebuild your lawn from the ground up
There are a lot of reasons why your lawn might need one or more of these renovation services. Some might be due to lack of water through the summer, unseen attacks from insects or disease, heavy foot traffic, or poor drainage. All of these problems can create the need for some repair work.
REMEMBER: TIMING MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE
If you decide to seed, make sure you time it right. Timing really matters. Try to have seed planted early enough so that your new grass can be mowed several times during the fall. Be sure to use the best possible seed for the most dependable results.
