Services to check of your "to-do list" around the property
Right now is a great time to get a game plan going for what work you need done around your property. Spring is a perfect time for planting, cleaning up the lawn and garden for the summer time, and repairing any walkways/patios. Make sure you reach out to us if there is anything specific you need help with this Spring. Hope this list helps take some stress away!
J&J Lawn Cares "To-Do List" For The Spring
Ensure your gutters are not clogged, especially if they haven't been cleaned recently. If your home isn't surrounded by many trees, you may be fine, but if that's not the case, make sure to have them cleaned. It's always better to manage gutter maintenance before any issues develop.
Schedule a spring cleanup in March or April so your lawn and plants receive the necessary sunlight and nutrients. Avoid having sticks and debris scattered across your lawn and garden beds. A spring cleanup also prepares your lawn for family and friends to enjoy during the summer.
Apply mulch to your garden beds. Mulch improves the appearance of your property and supplies essential nutrients to plants and shrubs. You have many mulch options: Brown, Black, Cedar, Hemlock, and our favorite, SWEET PEET MULCH. Sweet Peet is a completely organic brown mulch that decomposes by year-end, nourishing your plants.
Contact us if your lawn needs aerating or seeding. If you seeded your lawn in the fall, you likely only need some patch seeding. If your lawn wasn't aerated or seeded in the fall, you should have it done.
Is there a company handling fertilizer and weed control for your lawn? This is crucial to keep the lawn free from weeds and diseases, resulting in a healthier lawn.
Have you discussed any new plantings for your property with us? Whether it's seasonal flowers for your porch or garden beds, or privacy screening, we can create a plan for you. Spring is an ideal time to plant due to the cooler temperatures. Feel free to text or call us at (203) 695-7790
Have you addressed any drainage issues in your lawn? We can assist in resolving any drainage problems on your property. We install French drains, catch basins, and perform grading wherever necessary.
Do you notice any damage on your walkways, patios, or walls? Over time, stones may become dislodged or cracks may appear. It's important to resolve any issues promptly. Our team of masons has over 30 years of experience in Greenwich, CT.
Do you have someone providing weekly mowing for your property? Proper lawn mowing is essential for a healthy, green lawn. Avoid clumps of grass on your lawn, as they can kill the grass beneath. Delaying mowing when the grass is too long can stress the root system, leading to dead patches. Decide who will handle your lawn mowing to save time and stress this season.
