More About Us

• How should I mow my lawn?

  Frequent mowing helps a lawn resist weeds, insects and disease. As a rule we never cut more than one-third of the length at a time, and we cut at 2½-3½ inches so the lawn develops a deeper root system and better resists weeds and disease.

• Why and how much should I water my lawn?

  Wind, temperature and sunlight all affect soil moisture. Fresh sod should be watered twice a day for its first two weeks in warm, dry or windy conditions, tapering to once a day after two weeks and every few days after a month.

• Why are Spring and Fall cleanups important?

  In spring, raking and removing old grass and debris lets air and nutrients reach the soil. In fall, clearing leaves and debris before winter prevents excessive compaction and potential winter kill of your lawn.

• Why aerate my lawn?

  Aeration is the secret weapon in a healthy lawn. Coring lets oxygen, water and organic nutrients reach the roots, helps break up thatch, and loosens tight, compacted soil so the root system can grow.

• Why lime my lawn?

  In Nova Scotia we have naturally acidic soils. Adding lime to your property lowers the acidity of the soil, which enables grass to thrive.

• Why fertilize my lawn?

  A timely fertilization program for each season is essential. Proper fertilization feeds your lawn and prepares the grass roots for stressful climate conditions.

• Why should I consider a landscape renovation?

  Landscape renovation is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase the value of a property. Adding soil and mulch to shrub beds along with pruning and fertilizing shrubbery boosts curb appeal and improves the overall health of your property.

• Where do you provide snow removal services?

  At this time, snow removal is offered in the immediate Halifax area. This ensures our current customers receive timely, prompt service during snow storms.
