Local lawncare

Our lawn care services cover Fareham and its surrounding areas such as Locks Heath, Portchester and Whiteley.

Fareham, located in Hampshire, is known for its beautiful green spaces and residential gardens, but maintaining a healthy lawn in this area can be challenging due to its soil type and climate. The predominant soil in Fareham is clay, which is nutrient-rich but can become compacted and waterlogged during periods of heavy rainfall. Clay soils hold onto moisture longer than sandy or loamy soils, which can lead to drainage issues, moss buildup, and poor root development for your lawn.

To care for your lawn in Fareham’s clay soil, it’s essential to follow proper lawncare techniques that cater to these conditions.

  • Mowing Tips: Regular mowing is essential. Keep grass at 2-3 inches tall to protect against frost and stress.
  • Aeration: Aerating your lawn once a year, preferably in autumn, will help break up the compacted soil and improve water penetration, ensuring that your grass roots can grow deeper and healthier.
  • Fertilising: Fertilising your lawn with a nitrogen-rich formula in the spring and a potassium-rich feed in the summer will also help counteract the challenges of heavy clay soil, promoting strong, drought-resistant grass.
  • Weed Control in Hampshire: Common weeds like dandelions and clover should be promptly treated with a selective herbicide to stop them from competing with your lawn.
  • Moss Prevention: Moss control is another important aspect of lawncare in Fareham. The high moisture retention of clay soil can lead to moss growth, particularly in shaded areas or parts of the lawn that don’t drain well. Applying a moss control during late winter or early spring will help keep moss at bay and allow your grass to thrive.

With the right lawncare approach, you can maintain a lush, green lawn in Fareham, despite the challenges posed by the local soil type.
