Question 1

What is lawn renovation?

Accepted Answer

Lawn renovation is a structured process used to repair and improve the health, density, and appearance of an existing lawn. It typically involves a combination of treatments such as scarification, aeration, overseeding, and topdressing, depending on the lawn’s condition.

Question 2

How do I know if my lawn needs renovating?

Accepted Answer

Your lawn may benefit from renovation if it is:
 • Thin or patchy
 • Heavily moss-ridden
 • Compacted or slow to drain
 • Full of thatch
 • Struggling despite regular mowing
An on-site assessment allows us to recommend the most effective renovation approach.

Question 3

What lawn renovation services do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Our lawn renovation services may include:
 • Scarification (thatch and moss removal)
 • Aeration (to relieve compaction and improve drainage)
 • Overseeding (to improve density and appearance)
 • Topdressing (to level the surface and improve soil quality)
Not every lawn needs every treatment – we tailor the work to what your lawn actually needs.

Question 4

What time of year is best for lawn renovation?

Accepted Answer

The best times for most renovation work are spring and autumn, when conditions support recovery and seed germination. Some treatments can also be carried out at other times depending on weather, ground conditions, and lawn health.

Question 5

Will my lawn look worse before it looks better?

Accepted Answer

Yes – temporarily. Renovation work can make the lawn look thin or untidy immediately after treatment. This is normal and expected. As the lawn recovers and new growth establishes, the improvement becomes visible over the following weeks.

Question 6

How long does it take to see results?

Accepted Answer

Initial improvement is usually visible within 3–6 weeks, depending on the treatments carried out and weather conditions. Full results develop gradually over time, especially when renovation is followed by ongoing maintenance.

Question 7

Is lawn renovation a one-off fix?

Accepted Answer

No. Lawn renovation sets the foundation for improvement, but long-term results depend on continued care. Regular mowing, seasonal feeding, and appropriate follow-up treatments help maintain and build on the progress made.

Question 8

Do I need to be at home during the renovation?

Accepted Answer

No, as long as we have safe and reasonable access to your garden. We’ll let you know in advance if access, pets, or specific preparations are required before the visit.

Question 9

Will renovation remove all weeds and moss?

Accepted Answer

Renovation reduces moss and creates better growing conditions for grass, but weeds and moss are natural and can return over time. Ongoing lawn care helps suppress them and maintain a healthier, denser lawn.

Question 10

How much does lawn renovation cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on lawn size, condition, and the treatments required. We provide clear quotes following an assessment so you know exactly what’s included before any work starts.

Question 11

Can lawn renovation be combined with a lawn care plan?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Many clients choose to follow renovation work with a structured lawn care plan to support recovery and maintain long-term results. This approach delivers the best overall outcome.
