Keep your lawn looking luscious right through the summer heat
Towards the end of the summer months, blazing sun on top of increased use can lead to lawns looking a little sorry for themselves if not properly cared for. At this time of the year, our service really focuses on giving your lawn everything it needs to stay looking its absolute best in the heat, so that you can really enjoy it right up until the end of the warm season.
Why choose our seasonal late summer lawn treatment?
Control weed invasions
Late summer is when your garden is most active, which sadly includes hard-to-control weeds. Our late summer treatment focuses on getting rid of weeds such as White Clover, Yarrow, Lesser Trefoil and Woodrush. We also offer weed control for your hard garden surfaces.
Keep it green
The combination of long hot days, dry spells, and rapid growth can begin to sap the colour from your lawn. Our seasonal treatment at this point enriches the soil with specially formulated slow-release fertiliser that will help the grass maintain that deep green we all want.
Prevent insect and disease damage
It’s not just weeds that can harm lawns at this time of year. A variety of grubs and larvae, such as chafer grubs, as well as diseases such as Red Thread, can infest your lawn and do massive damage. Alongside our seasonal treatment we can combat these threats with specialised products.
Protect your lawn and avoid scorching
The products we use in our late summer treatment are specially formulated to avoid scorching your lawn. Using these products as well as aeration, hydration, and other targeted techniques, our experts will keep your lawn protected from the impact of blazing sun all season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our late summer treatment focuses on keeping your lawn green, avoiding scorching, and keeping your lawn healthy despite the summer heat. We achieve this by applying nitrogen-rich fertiliser which is packed with all the nutrients your lawn needs, alongside effective weed control.
We recommend that all lawns have a one-off late summer treatment, as it gives your lawn the boost it needs to keep it healthy for the rest of the season. However, in addition to our late summer treatment, we recommend regular lawn maintenance and watering to keep your lawn looking its best.
All of our treatments are completely safe for children and pets long-term – a lawn is meant to be enjoyed after all! We may recommend leaving a short period of time before allowing children, pets, or grazing animals back on the lawn, to allow products to absorb or dry. Our experts will advise you on everything you need to know in this regard when they carry out your treatment.
While our late summer treatment gives your lawn the nutrients and TLC it needs, it’s vital that you continue to regularly mow and water your lawn to keep it healthy in between our visits. This is especially important during the hot summer months when just a few days without water could leave your lawn looking worse for wear! We recommend watering your lawn heavily once or twice a week at this time of year, rather than little-and-often, and if you have any questions about caring for your lawn then our experts will happily give you all the advice you need.
