Your grass doesn’t stop growing in the summer, and it might grow faster than normal with the extra heat and humidity. Some parts of our country get extra heat, while some areas begin their rainy season. Either way, getting a little ahead on your lawn and landscape chores will always be a good thing.
So what services do you need?

Lawn and landscape maintenance
Did you know there is a difference between lawn and landscape maintenance and lawn and landscape care? Each task is designed to make your landscape as beautiful as possible. So let’s start with lawn and landscape maintenance.
In general, lawn maintenance will keep your lawn looking good on a steady basis. Your lawn will look healthy, and your trees, shrubs, flowers, and grass will be healthy due to constant and consistent upkeep.
The constant upkeep will save money. Spotty maintenance will cost more money. Damage repair will cost extra time and materials. Regular maintenance will help avoid extra charges.
Many people, busy people, are turning to companies like Busy Lil Beavers to create and maintain great landscapes.
Lawn and landscape care
Tasks like fertilizing, winterizing, aeration, and overseeding keep your lawns healthy and happy. However, your lawn and the soil beneath sometimes need special services.
Soil gets compacted for various reasons, causing the roots of your grass to stop getting the nutrients, water, and air needed. Taking care of this early is much more efficient and more cost-effective.
Aeration will introduce small holes into the soil and through the root system of your lawn. Overseeding will put new grass seed where it’s needed, and as the water, nutrients, and air have better access to that layer of your lawn, the new seeds will sprout, the old grass will grow again, and your lawn will be the lush green carpet your toes have always dreamed of.
If you see water pooling after rain or irrigation, the lawn care that includes aeration and seeding will help keep the water where it belongs – at the roots of your lawn. In addition, your lawn care team can ensure any new outside elements won’t hurt your landscape.
Did you know that your lawns are brilliant at producing oxygen and cleaning the air? It can also trap dust, clean the air, and give you and your family, your environment, and the area surrounding your house a boost of fresh air.
Sod!
Sometimes, for no reason we can see, a lawn starts failing, with large brown patches, standing water, or other lawn troubles. Sometimes the underlying soil becomes compacted, with thatching of the roots in a thick layer, too thick for aeration to do the job.
You may have inherited lawn problems when you purchased your house and land, and the problems have so far refused to go away. All you wanted was a perfect, thick, luxurious carpet of emerald spreading from house to fence, yard to backyard, tree to tree. So why, oh why, isn’t it working?
It can.
You might think of investing in sod, at least for the part of your lawn that’s most important to look great. It’s a process of several days, but you will have your perfect lawn at the end. Once it roots, you will have the same maintenance, and care needs as the rest of your landscape. The initial investment into your landscape can be a little daunting, but it’s well worth the time and effort. Ask your consultants at Busy Lil Beavers about their sod services, and have your dream lawn.
