Lawn Care Services We Provide in Colchester

Lawn Treatment Programme

Our 4-visit annual treatment programme provides consistent, year-round care for your lawn. We apply targeted weed and moss control alongside seasonal feeds that keep your grass thick, green, and resilient. From £20 per visit.

Lawn Scarification

Thatch and moss build up in most Colchester gardens, particularly during damp winters. Our professional scarification clears this layer in spring or autumn to let air, water, and nutrients back into the soil. From £60.

Lawn Aeration

New build properties in and around Colchester are particularly prone to compacted, nutrient-poor soil. Our hollow tine aeration loosens the soil profile and creates the conditions for strong, healthy grass root growth. From £40.

Leatherjacket Pest Control

Leatherjacket infestations are common across the Colchester area. They cause patchy, thinning turf that can be difficult to recover without professional treatment. Our licensed application targets larvae directly, stopping further damage. From £75.

Full Lawn Renovation

For lawns that have declined significantly, our full renovation service provides a complete reset. We improve soil quality, resolve underlying issues, and overseed with a premium grass mix tailored to your garden's conditions.
