Frequently asked questions
If a liquid treatment is applied, our calling card will advise how long to keep off the treated areas. This is typically 2 hours, or until the product has dried. Grazing pets, such as rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoise, etc, should be kept off the grass until after it has been mown 3 times.
After granular treatments (fertiliser) the lawn can typically be used immediately, but any pets such as chickens or ducks that may peck at the granules, should be kept off until the fertiliser granules have dissolved. This can take anywhere between a week to a month, depending on the treatment and time of year.
We suggest arranging a “no-treatment” area on lawns that are frequently used by grazing animals/pets.
All green waste generated from our services will be neatly bagged-up in returnable bags for your disposal, or we will move it to a composting area if available on-site.
Although we do not dispose of green waste ourselves, we can arrange for green waste to be collected from your property by a licensed waste contractor for green recycling.
We do not provide a leaf clearance service as standard and recommend that leaves are regularly cleared from lawns to prevent die-back and disease.
If there is excessive leaf cover during a scheduled visit, we may be unable to perform the planned treatment. In such cases, we will contact you to reschedule.
For small dips and hollows, we can help by applying a top dressing to smooth out the surface.
A very uneven lawn may need considerably more work, sometimes several tonnes of topsoil/top dressing, or even starting from scratch by rotovating and regrading the area before reseeding or turfing. We do not provide those soft landscaping services but are happy to advise you on the available options
