Scarification is the process of removing surface thatch and moss by use of a scarification machine. 

Moss and thatch can suffocate the roots of the lawn weakening growth, encouraging weeds and lawn disease. 

Removing moss and thatch allows fertilisers, air and water to reach the roots, creating a healthier lawn.

The best time to scarify a lawn is out of season, generally in the autumn, as it can look unsightly following treatment.

Aeration is the process of making small holes in the lawn.

By aerating the lawn you reduce soil compaction which can limit the growth of roots, stunting growth and encouraging moss growth.

The small holes allow nutrients, water and air to penetrate deeper, resulting in a healthier sub-system of root networks.

The best time to aerate a lawn is out of season, generally in the autumn or early spring, as it can look unsightly following treatment.

Our Autumn nutritional spray treatment toughens the lawn to cope with the winter ahead.

This treatment de-hydrates moss. 

For best results, combine with scarification and aeration treatments.
