As fall approaches, giving your lawn the care it needs to transition into winter is critical to ensuring a healthy, vibrant yard in the spring. At Linehan Landscaping, we specialize in comprehensive fall lawn care services that prepare your yard for the harsh New England winter, ensuring it stays strong and ready to flourish when the snow melts. With our expert team and decades of experience, we offer all the necessary services to ensure your lawn is in optimal condition before winter sets in.
Aeration and Overseeding
One of the first steps in preparing your lawn for winter is aeration. This process relieves soil compaction, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeply into the root system. Aeration creates small holes in the soil, which improves overall soil health and provides a stronger foundation for your grass to survive the winter. Once the lawn is aerated, we recommend overseeding to fill in any thin or bare patches, thickening the turf and giving it a lush appearance come spring. Overseeding ensures that new grass takes root before winter dormancy, helping your lawn bounce back even stronger.
Fertilization for Root Growth
Fertilizing your lawn in the fall is essential to support root development before the grass goes dormant. At Linehan Landscaping, we use a specially formulated fall fertilizer high in phosphorus and potassium, which encourages strong root growth and helps your grass store vital nutrients. This promotes a healthier, hardier lawn that can withstand the cold and recover quickly once spring arrives. Timing is everything, and our team ensures your lawn is fertilized at the optimal time to maximize its benefits before the first frost.
Leaf Removal and Mowing
As part of our fall lawn care package, we offer regular leaf removal services. Fallen leaves can smother your lawn, blocking out sunlight and trapping moisture, which can lead to diseases and pests. Our team efficiently clears your yard of leaves, keeping your lawn healthy and reducing the risk of winter damage. In addition, we continue mowing throughout the fall, gradually reducing the grass height to the ideal length for winter. Shorter grass prevents matting under snow and reduces the risk of snow mold, while still keeping the root system insulated and protected.
Weed and Pest Control
Weeds and pests can wreak havoc on your lawn, especially in the fall when your grass is trying to store nutrients for the winter. At Linehan Landscaping, we offer targeted weed control treatments to eliminate broadleaf weeds like dandelions and clover. Fall is the perfect time to apply herbicides, as weeds are actively absorbing nutrients in preparation for winter, making the treatment more effective. We also monitor your lawn for pests, such as grubs, that can cause extensive damage. Our pest control services ensure that your lawn stays pest-free and ready to thrive come spring.
