At Greensleeves we are your local lawn care experts, devoted to keeping lawns everywhere beautiful and healthy.

This is why we’ve built this FAQ’s page, to answer the questions that we often get asked and give you some useful bits of advice. Lawn care can be complicated, but we are here to help you on your journey to achieving your perfect lawn.

If you don’t find the answer to your questions below, then please don’t hesitate to contact our friendly team – we will be more than happy to assist you in any way we can.

The first sign to look out for is if your lawn has an uneven colour or doesn’t look as green as you would like, alongside any issues with your grass not growing properly. Our experts can fully assess your space to check for moss and thatch, before deciding on the most appropriate control methods and treatments to give you a beautiful-looking, healthy lawn.

It’s important to keep on top of moss and thatch control. We recommend annual treatments to keep your garden healthy and thriving. With a monthly lawn care package, we will carry out moss and thatch control as part of your ongoing lawn care plan.

All of our treatments are safe for pets and children, so they can get outside and enjoy the lawn the way they’re supposed to. If there are any recommendations for keeping pets off the lawn for a period of time, then our experts will advise you on everything you need to know.

Our experts will also remove any debris, leaving your space clean and tidy ready to be enjoyed again.

There are several benefits to having ongoing moss and thatch control, including improving the drainage of your soil, promoting new grass growth, controlling weeds, reducing the risk of disease, and making your lawn more resilient to wear and tear.

Moss can also create a dreaded ‘spongy’ feeling underfoot. By eliminating moss from your lawn, you can get a firmer, more hardy lawn that the whole family can enjoy.
