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.
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 !
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.
Have a look please and get in touch if you'd like to get our quotation on something similar.
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 !
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.

Paul did an excellent and speedy garden tidy up! He was punctual, polite and hardworking. The lawn was beautifully cut and the borders resurfaced once weeded. What a relief. Our fallen tree and garden rubbish was taken away. I would certainly recommend his services.
