Economy Lawn Care
Treatment Programme
If you have more than one lawn at home that you would like treating, simply add the sizes of each lawn together and use their combined their
square meter area to find out the correct price above.
We base our prices on your total area of lawn you wish treated
at your property, not for each separate lawn.
All good quality lawn care programmes should include a lawn feed fertiliser followed by a selective weedkiller spray to reduce the number weeds in your lawn. If you are on a tight budget, but you would like to improve the appearance of your lawn, these 'must have' elements are just what our Economy Lawn Care Treatment Programme provides. This lawn care treatment programme can be delivered at any time during the main grass growing season, however, for best results, commencing in Spring or early Summer is ideal.
We will make 2 visits to your home. During our first visit we shall apply a specially formulated slow release granular lawn fertiliser which over a period of about 6 months will release nutrients into your lawn helping to build strong roots and healthy green leaves.
About 4-6 weeks after out first visit, we will make our second visit and spray a liquid selective weedkiller on your lawn that will kill weeds not your grass. We wait this amount of time to allow the weeds to also benefit from the lawn fertiliser we applied, as for best results, we actually want the weeds to be actively growing and have healthy leaves. This is because the Professional Selective Weedkiller we use when applied with a pressure sprayer, is designed to be absorbed through the leaves and then drawn down into the roots where it effectively kills the whole weed. The weed and any remaining weedkiller then naturally bio-degrades into the soil. This is unlike many weedkillers you can buy from a garden centre which appear to kill weeds quickly by turning the leaves brown, but often leaves the roots intact, allowing the weed to recover and re-emerge a few weeks later.
Because we want the leaves of the weeds to be healthy and intact, we will need to time our visit so that the lawn hasn't been cut within the previous 7 days. If you are a regular grass cutting customer, we will take care of the timing for you. If you cut your own grass, we will need to coordinate the date of our visit with you. The lawn will also need to be dry for best results, with no rain forecast for at least 6 hours after application. As such, we will normally arrange a 'back up' date with you just in case the weather isn't suitable.
Although treating your lawn in this way will make a significant improvement to your lawn, there is a trade off of this budget friendly approach of using a slow release fertiliser that delivers its nutrients over 6 months. As our other programmes release the same amount of nutrients over 3 months rather than 6, as well providing a follow up fertiliser after 3 months, overall your lawn receives less nutrients on the Economy Lawn Care Treatment Programme.
If your lawn is a bit threadbare, has bald patches, or if you are simply looking to thicken up your lawn for a more luxury look and feel underfoot, we also provide over-seeding with a top quality grass seed specifically suited to your your garden's condition, as well as top dressing with compost and/or top soil to enable the seed to have the best germination conditions to give you a great lawn.
