Why is it important to clean up your lawn?
A lawn that is neglected in the fall will not be magically ready for growth in the spring. To ensure a healthy lawn come April or May, the clean-up work we do in September or October becomes very important.
This includes a final cut, raking leaves to allows your grass to breathe and grow roots, and aerating your lawn. We know how harsh Calgary and Edmonton winters are.
Unless you give your lawn a final trim, take care of the fall leaves, and provide your lawn with the means to access the nutrients it needs before going dormant for the season, it could be in sorry shape when the warmer weather arrives.
A little fall maintenance can also make sure that your lawn irrigation system switches on again without problems when it’s needed in the spring.
Fall Services
Cutting your grass in the fall is not simply a case of doing the same as you did in the spring or summer.
The final cut of the year for your lawn should be with the shortest mower setting available.
This allows more sunlight to reach the base of the grass and ensures that less of the blade is exposed to turn brown during our long winters.
Fall leaves look pretty on your trees but they can do real harm to your lawn.
They can encourage disease and preventing evaporation (they will effectively “choke” your lawn).
Fallen leaves need to be raked off before they get wet, stick together, encourage mould and fungus, and become more difficult to remove.
Grass clippings and leaves must be thoroughly removed from your lawn before the first snowfalls.
If not, leaves and debris will form a virtually impenetrable barrier that will suffocate the grass and form a breeding ground for fungal diseases.
Our fall packages include 2 bags of debris removal.
*Available with the Premium Fall Clean Up package.
Core aeration can be done at any time of the year but one season you should not miss with aeration is the fall.
Aerating your lawn makes it easier for oxygen, water, and fertilizer to reach the roots.
As it will be dormant for months, it is important to provide your lawn with what it needs during this period to encourage deep root growth and deliver a luxurious lawn in the spring.
Other Fall Services
Core Aeration
Core aeration ensures that air and water circulation are optimized, dead thatch is removed, and new growth is stimulated.
Fertilization
Achieve a beautiful, lush lawn all-season with our specialized lawn fertilization and weed control treatments.
Irrigation shut down
Frozen irrigation lines can burst during our cold winters and lead to costly repairs in the spring. We can help with irrigation blow out.
Our fall clean-up services for Calgary and Edmonton yards are generally provided during late fall but this depends on the weather. We start the fall clean-up in your yard when 75% of the leaves have fallen and continue until the first snow. If the snow melts, we will continue to offer fall clean-up services for yards until it doesn’t melt anymore.
