Signs It's Time to Call a Maitland Lawn Care Professional
2025 is the year that you take on the opportunity to have your lawn and garden looked after by a professional.
Having a beautiful lawn or garden is every homeowner’s dream. A well-maintained outdoor space not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your property but also boosts its value. While many people make an effort to water their plants and mow their lawns regularly, proper lawn care requires more than just these basic tasks. Neglecting essential maintenance can lead to common lawn issues that diminish the health and appearance of your garden.
If you want your lawn to stay lush, green, and healthy year-round, it’s important to recognise the signs that indicate it’s time to bring in a professional.
At Fluro Gardens, we specialise in expert lawn care services in the Hunter Valley, ensuring your outdoor space always looks its best. Here are some key indicators that you should hire a lawn care expert:
Grass won’t magically change over night. You need a plan in knowing when to mow, how to mow and what to look for.
1. Discolored Grass
If your lawn is turning brown or yellow, this is a major red flag. Discoloration can occur due to a variety of reasons, including lack of nutrients, overwatering, under-watering, compacted soil, or even pests. A professional lawn care service can diagnose the issue and provide solutions such as aeration, fertilisation, and pest control to restore your lawn’s health. Don’t risk heading to Bunnings, wasting money and putting your lawn, garden, pets and yourself at risk. We offer services to care for your lawn and garden in Maitland have experience in common soil based issues.
2. Persistent Weed Growth
Weeds can quickly take over a neglected lawn, competing with your grass for nutrients, water, and sunlight. If you notice excessive weed growth, it’s time to call in experts who can implement weed control treatments and improve your lawn’s overall health. Mowing height can also be tricky here, as it can impact the growing cycle of your lawn, while letting weeds move on in.
3. Patchy or Thin Grass
Does your lawn look uneven with thin or bald patches? This can be caused by compacted soil, improper mowing techniques, or lack of proper seeding. Professional lawn care services can help by overseeding, improving soil conditions, and applying fertilisers that promote even and healthy growth. You may also need a slower approach to fixing this issue over a few weeks or months, which can be offered in your lawn care services.
4. Insect or Pest Infestation
Too many bugs or visible lawn damage from pests like grubs, beetles, and ants can ruin your yard. If you see unusual brown spots, dead patches, or signs of insect activity, a lawn care professional can assess the situation and apply targeted treatments to eliminate pests without harming your lawn. We remember dealing with ‘army grub’ here in the Hunter Valley a few years back - and boy was that an issue with so many lawns!
5. Seasonal Lawn Damage
Each season brings its own challenges. Hot summers can cause drought stress, while heavy rains in winter can unfortunately lead to water logging and fungal growth. Professional lawn care can help prepare your lawn for each season, ensuring it remains strong and resilient year-round. Lawn coring, scraficing and top dressing is also part of our services, and gives your lawn even more resilience to take on these future events.
6. You Simply Just Don’t Have the Time
