Autumn
Benefiting from increased moisture and cooler temperatures, Autumn is the most important season for your lawn and landscaping. These conditions promote healthy root development for new plants and provide a proper growing environment for new or renovated lawns. Your landscaping will also need to be prepared for the upcoming harsh winter conditions.

Seed and Plant
Autumn comes with a mix of warm soil and cool air. It is the perfect time for us to for plant grass seed, allowing time for roots to develop before winter sets in.
Clear Debris
Letting leaves remain on your lawn will suffocate the turf, leaving unsightly brown and yellow spots during the winter months and delay growth in the spring.
Dethatch and Aerate
Dethatching and aerating improves air, nutrient, and water penetration into the root zone of your grass.
Clear Gutters
Clogged gutters give rainwater nowhere to run and the overflow will cause damage to both the interior and exterior of your home.
Fertilize
Lawns must be given a proper feeding with a winter fertilizer this time of year to provide the nutrients it needs as it enters the dormant winter period.
Irrigate
Autumn is a good time to think about irrigation and drainage, as the increased rain will reveal problem areas where water is pooling.
Winterize
Irrigation systems and water features need to be prepared for the cold winter months ahead with proper winterization methods.
