The Importance of Regular Lawn Care Service
The Importance of Regular Lawn Care Service
It's a relatively common misconception that after several years of yard service, a lawn can become "numb" to the care and results become stagnant. It's not necessarily a question of a lawn becoming unresponsive after several years with a professional lawn care service. Rather, it may be that results are not as dramatic or impressive as they were when service first started.
Our goal as a lawn care service is to get your lawn to a point where it is green, healthy and consistently looks good. We've done our job if the lawn's appearance is healthy and doesn't change much from month to month.
Lawns respond to whatever inputs you provide. Lawns themselves are not naturally occurring by default. So they need to be maintained to thrive and stay alive. If you choose to stop lawn service to let your lawn "rest" a year, the density will start to decline and the root system will diminish. Also, weeds, damaging insects, and lawn diseases can increase.
Turfgrasses grow best in well-drained soils that are rich in nutrients and organic content. Most home lawns do not have the best soil for turf to grow and thrive. Lawns need additional food, water and proper maintenance practices to make up for the poor soil on which they are expected to grow. That is why we recommend such additional services as core aeration to help root systems expand.
Careful fertilization, mowing, watering and reseeding decisions need to be made in order to maintain a lawn, and are determined by the type of turf you have and the weather conditions your particular lawn faces.
A healthy lawn, well-maintained by a lawn care service, will recover faster from the effects of adverse weather conditions as well as attacks from insect and disease infestations. If a lawn remains fallow for a year, it is less likely to have the ability to come back from these pressures. Therefore, you should continue with regularly scheduled applications of fertilizer on your lawn every year.
