SPRING
During the spring natural environments need a helping hand in order to provide the best conditions for the landscaped environment.
Plant beds are ready to have their protective fall leaf debris removed and may need to be topped up with mulch, bedding soil or aggregate.
Lawns need to be power raked and may also need to be aerated, especially in high traffic areas to ensure a healthy growing environment. Damaged areas due to pests or vehicles may also need to be repaired or replaced.
This is also a great time to assess if plantings have suffered from disease or winter damage and if they need to be replaced.
Spring is also the best time to prune back any damaged braches from your trees and shrubs.
Planting during the spring provides the most ideal conditions as the trees, shrubs and perennials are beginning to come out of the dormant state.
Spring fertilizing may need to be done depending on soil and plant conditions.
Hardscaped areas of your property may also need attention after the long winter months.
Spring is the ideal time to remove the winter accumulation of sand and gravel from the parking and surface areas of your property.
High water volume can occur during spring run-off which can result in damage to asphalt and concrete surfaces.
Curbs, patio’s, decks, and fences may also need attention.

SUMMER
The summer season is a time when nature flourishes. In order to maintain the curb appeal of your business or residence these elements must be maintained and controlled.
Lawns need to be cut, hedges need to be trimmed and weeds need to be pulled on a regular basis to ensure the best look to your property.
Trees and shrubs on the property may be intruding into undesirable areas such as power lines, gas lines, foundations etc., and may need to be pruned or removed.
During the hot and dry months of mid-summer it also extremely important to make sure the plants, trees and lawns have the water they need water in order to survive.

AUTUMN (FALL)
Fall is the time of the year when nature begins to prepare for the long and harsh winter months.
Landscaped elements of your property also need a hand to prepare for winter
Professional maintenance is very important during this critical time of the year as each tree, shrub and plant needs individualized care in order to successfully make it through the winter.
Fall is aptly named because of the large amount of leaf debris that “falls” to the ground during this season. Much of this leaf debris can be removed but this is also nature’s way of insulating the ground in order to protect plants from the winter conditions.
Plants need to be pruned and insulted carefully depending on the specific type of plant
If your property has irrigation, the lines need to be blown out to eliminate the potential for expensive damage
- Plant bed winter prep
- Leaf debris removal
- Irrigation line blow out
