NOW is the time to rejuvenate your lawns and make your neighbour jealous! 😉
Today we have done our first such treatment this autumn.
– aeration
– scarification
– grass seeding
A couple of weeks and results should be visible!
If you’d like to see what a single pass with a professional scarifier can pull from your lawn – watch the following video.
March! perfect time to reinvigorate your lawn – aeration and lawn scarification
Yesterday we had a perfect day to do some mechanical lawn treatments. It’s best to do it once a year – more is not really a better option in this case.
We had done two gardens. Hollow plug aeration followed by light scarification. If you’d like to read more about this service or book it with us then please follow this link
Please do visit this page in awhile – I will add photos of the same lawn and how it reacted to these treatments.
Fingers crossed !
Lawn renovation is pretty much possible in any case, but the important thing is – can you wait few months ?
If the answer to the above is no and there is a budget for it then why not call us ?
Two days of work have seen this front lawn totally changed. Edges have been defined, poor sandy soil improved with lots of compost – all that well rotovated and levelled, finally a new turf laid which, will now have the best conditions to show it’s colours. Mowing with such well executed edge will also be a breeze for the owner.
Last minute scarifying and overseeding in spring 2017
It’s the last call to do some scarifying and reseeding to improve your lawn. We have done it in this garden on top of some edging and turfing.
Please come back here to see more photos when grass starts to grow. It should not take more than two weeks in this weather. WATCH THIS SPACE !
Lawn aeration.. do you want a better looking lawn ?
We have aerated and top dressed about 300m2 of this lawn last year. I started a regular lawn cut in this garden again this year and had a chance to see the results..
Below a photo right after aeration and top dressing.
Unfortunately I haven’t got an earlier photo but I’m sure you can see a terrible state this lawn was in. It suffered from a severe compaction, it was difficult to stick a knife few cm in..
It was dry and more brownish than green..
Few other photos show the same lawn this year. It recovered fully and quickly after our lawn aeration service which allowed more air and nutrients to get to the roots.
It is worth mentioning that not every lawn will benefit as much from aerating as this one. Some lawns don’t even need aeration and could benefit more from moss treatments, overseeding, scarification or simple lawn feeding.. .
Let Tidy Gardens assess your lawn and provide best treatment it requires.
Colin September 2019 – Fence work
From first contact to completion, it has been a pleasure to deal with Paul and his colleagues. Very quick to respond. Very honest in assessment and advice. Took his advice are very happy with the result. Ours was a relatively small job, but still felt like offering the same help as if it were a big job was important to him.
Will definitely use again when opportunity arises.
Our thanks to Paul and his team.

Major garden tidy up - Hurst. July 2014 Paul carried out a major tidy of my garden.
His work ethics and quality of finish was exemplary.
Held up to his word of finishing the work to my expectations. Even though it took longer to complete he was honourable to his original quote

Pam Thomas - December 2019 I wish I had taken a photo of my garden before Paul and his team arrived.
as it had extremely long wet grass, was very weedy with large overgrown shrubs.
After Paul’s first visit, the wet grass had been cut back, shrubs pruned and weeds removed.
On second visit – Grass mowed and now looking like a proper lawn again,
more weeds removed, and more shrubs pruned back.
Third (and last visit of the year) – Lawn looking good, neat and tidy, and now awaiting for spring of next year.
So, if you hav… Read more

Fabulous! Paul & team did a great job doing a new tenancy clean up (thorough clean, carpet/curtain wash & garden tidy) for a house we’re letting out in quick time & at a good price.
Paul also did a tidy up of our own garden in no time at all. Now we’ve found someone local who’s pleasant,polite, professional & reliable, we won’t be going elsewhere!

Really impressed May 2019
I was really impressed by the service provided by Paul.
I had a garden full of weeds and no real idea of what to do with it, Paul helped me make decisions about how I wanted it to look.
The work was completed within a week and I am delighted with the results.
I would definitely recommend Paul and his team.

Great service and very happy customer! Paul came around quickly as promised to give us a quote and provided exactly what we wanted at a great price. Fast, friendly, professional service and tidied up everything very well. We were also given advice/tips on how to maintain the garden and improve its appearance. Recommend using this company and we will use them again in the future!

Superb Job! Paul and Eddy worked tirelessly to transform the neglected jungle at the end of our garden into a fabulous landscaped area with new planters, a wooden retaining wall and a new base for our large garden shed. Highly recommended

Excellent garden service Paul has done several large jobs for us in the garden over the last year – getting trees out, creating beds, reducing boundary tree height, fence building – and he has always provided an excellent service.
He has proved to be a reliable and hard worker, and has always given us very fair prices.
He’s a nice chap too 🙂

buddleia cut back Paul came very promptly to quote for chopping our enormous budliea. His quote was very reasonable and he returned next day to carry out the work. Very professional, gave sound advice about other plants in the garden, did a great job and took all rubbish away. Also cleaned up very thoroughly afterwards. I would gladly have him back for more work and recommend him to friends. Thanks Paul!

Fencing work in Woodley. May 2014 Paul and his team recently replaced the fencing in both my own and a couple of neighbouring gardens. the work was carried out efficiently with attention to detail and at a competitive price. They ensured that the entire garden was tidy before finishing. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Garden Makeover - March 2017 My garden has resemble a wasteland for several years. Paul and Eddie started work on it early on Monday morning and by Saturday afternoon they had transformed it into a lawn, neatly edged with brick paving, with a flower bed at the rear ready for new plants. They carried on working through terrible weather and left everything clean and tidy when they’d finished.
They are reliable, helpful, hard working and very polite and I can highly recommend them. I have already asked Paul to do more gardeni… Read more
