Lawn Mowing
Sapphire Lawn Care can offer a one off mow, or regular mowing. The mower is equipped with a roller for that quintessential striped look
Fertiliser Treatments
Like people, grass needs food to live. The main nutrients needed for a healthy sward are Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium, but many other micronutrients could be required to keep your lawn happy. We can provide a tailored fertilising programme to suit every lawn, for every time of the year. We can even send soil samples off to be analysed to find out exactly what is missing.
Moss Treatments
Moss is every garden lover’s enemy. It creeps in during winter when the ground is damp, shade is prevalent and grass cover is poor. We will treat the moss at the correct time of year. Couple this treatment with scarification and seeding for best results.
Weed Killing Treatments
Whether on a lawn or on a hard surface, we can all agree that weeds have no place in any garden. Sapphire Lawn Care will use specialised products to kill weeds dead.
PGR Treatments
A PGR or Plant Growth Regulator, is applied as liquid through summer. It will stunt vertical growth and promote lateral growth. This means a thicker lawn, with less mowing requirements.
Wetting Agent Treatments
Having worked on golf courses for many years, I have seen the results of using wetting agents during times of drought. When applied, they allow any rainfall, dew or irrigation water to be kept in the ground allowing the roots to access it. Mixed with seaweed will not only give your lawn a lovely colour, but will also aid root development.
Over-Seeding/wildflower Seeding
Over-seeding a lawn is an easy way to fill in bare spots, improve the density of turf, establish improved grass varieties and enhance your lawn's colour. Only the best seed will be used!
Wildflowers are a great way to give natural colour to your garden. They also provide a critical habitat for pollinators, beneficial insects and wildlife, which is important for ecosystem function and pollination.
Scarification, Verti-Cutting & Aeration
All very important factors when trying to keep a lawn healthy. It allows the removal of dead material (thatch), moss and weeds. Again, like humans, grass also needs air to live. A great aeration programme will be one of the most beneficial practises for your lawn.
Sapphire Lawn Care offers a renovation package consisting of;
-Moss Control
-Weed Control
-Scarification
-Aeration
-Over-Seeding
-Topdressing
-Fertilisation
This is followed up with visits at regular intervals to check on the recovery of the lawn and to check that any seed is germinating.

Topdressing
Adding topdressing to a lawn will provide a great bed for new seeds to grow in. Combined with hollow coring (the removal of a core of old soil), it will provide a great environment for new roots to develop, plus will aid water infiltration.
Turfing
If your lawn is beyond repair, Sapphire Lawn Care will remove the old lawn and replace it, using some of the best turf available.
