đIf your lawn doesnât look as impressive as it did just a couple of months ago, itâs time to take action!
By late August, most lawns across Central Massachusetts have been through a lot. Heat, dry stretches, heavy rain, foot traffic, and long days in the sun all take their toll.
Here are a few signs your lawn might be asking for a little attention before fall:
â
Brown or thinning areas that aren't bouncing back
â
Soil that feels hard and compacted
â
Weeds are starting to take over
â
Water sitting on the surface after it rains
â
Bare spots where grass isn't filling back in
The good news is that fall is one of the best times to help your lawn recover.
Sometimes that's as simple as aeration and overseeding. Other times, it might mean taking a closer look to figure out what's really going on.
If you're not sure what your lawn needs, we're happy to walk the property with you, answer your questions, and recommend what makes sense. If everything looks good, we'll tell you that too.
