What
is the LawnTender service?
The key to a great lawn is regular feeding, weed and moss
control, disease control and mechanical treatments (aeration
and scarification). And that's what we do! All you need
to do then is mowing and watering to have that beautiful
lush lawn you always dreamed of.
What
is special about it?
Just like the best golf courses around the world, we are
using the leading fertilisers, pesticides and professional
machinery to treat your lawn. Our specialist non-scorch
fertilisers are only available to professionals and provide
significantly more nutrients than products available in
retail stores. And our pesticides are only available to
licensed contractors.
Do
I need to sign-up and pay for a full course of treatments?
There is no contract to sign and you only pay us after each
individual treatment.
Is
it really cost effective to use LawnTender?
Absolutely. Having access to professional treatments and
specialist equipment enables us to treat your lawn for less
than doing it yourself. Our price includes all feeds, weed
and moss control, as well as VAT.
Can
you remove my troublesome weeds?
Yes, right down to the root. After our first weed control
treatment you will see the weeds starting to die after about
a week.
What
about my moss problem?
We address moss problems with our specialist moss control
treatment. In addition, we also look at the reasons for
moss such as thatch and soil compaction.
Are
LawnTender licensed to treat lawns?
By law, contractors must be licensed to apply lawn pesticides
(weed, moss, pest and disease control). We are licensed
by the National Proficiency Training Council (NPTC) to apply
these treatments.
When
is a good time to start to use LawnTender?
Achieving a healthy, lush lawn is a year round activity
– even in late autumn! You see, at this time your lawn
needs energy to protect against disease and help with other
problems like moss. So, anytime is a great time to start
using our service.
Do
I need to be in when you visit?
No – generally we have agreement from our customers
to access their garden and carry out the treatments without
them needing to be in. We then leave you a letter with details
of the treatment and a payment slip.
But
I think my lawn is beyond saving?
Lawns are rarely beyond saving – with a regular programme
of treatments that will be tuned to your lawns needs, you
will be surprised at how fast the transformation will be.
How
long before I see a difference in my lawn?
You will see a difference within a couple of weeks of the
first application of our specialist fertilisers and pesticides.
The lawn will generally be greener and show signs of stronger
growth.
Is
the effect on my lawn just skin deep?
No!!! Unlike some lawn care services, we focus on both the
above and below ground health of your lawn. That's why we
carry out an initial detailed assessment and recommend a
programme that includes key nutrients for grass growth,
root development and disease protection. We also focus on
regular aeration and scarification – vital for short
and long term grass health.
Following
a treatment, when can children or pets go on the lawn?
Our products are children and pet safe, however, for best
results we ask that you keep off the lawn for about a couple
of hours so that the applications can settle into the lawn.
Do
I need to water following a treatment?
Our feeds are slow release and work by absorbing small amounts
of water from the environment. Therefore, you do not need
to do anything.
After
hollow-tine aeration, why do you leave the soil cores on
the lawn?
Simple
– the cores will breakdown within a week or so and,
as they are full of nutrients, they act as an ideal top
dressing for your lawn.
Will
my gardener do the same as LawnTender?
LawnTender have access to specialist lawn fertilisers and
pesticides, as well as investing in the very best machinery.
Typically, this significant focused investment in your lawn
actually complements your gardener's
work.
What
about watering and mowing?
We do not do this but it is good practice for you to water
your lawn "deep down" once a week – not lightly
every night! This will ensure a deeper and healthy root
system. Regular mowing encourages growth and thickening
of the lawn – cut to a height of about 1 inch high
each week.
