What Landscape Maintenance Services Can be Done in Winter?

December 28, 2020

Without proper planning, the cold season can wreak havoc on your lawn. Protect your investment and keep your landscape beautiful and in peak health with our recommendations for landscape maintenance services this month.

Gutter Cleaning

Did you know that gutter cleaning can save you thousands of dollars in costly home repairs? Gutters provide water and rain damage protection to your home by collecting and draining snow, rainwater, and debris.

Maintaining your Hardscapes

Now is the time to inspect and repair your hardscapes! Seal any cracks and holes so that ice doesn’t get into them and degrade the stonework.

Leaf Cleanup

This season is an ideal time to rid your landscape of dead or dying annuals and foliage. Doing this will reduce the risk of disease and insects spreading to healthy plants.

Fertilization

Ensure that your turf is rich with nutrients going into the winter season. Even in colder temperatures, the grass’ roots remain active. Feed them and help them store more nutrients – and you’ll be thankful you did come spring! Fertilizing during the fall season will also help your shrubs and trees stay healthy during the winter months by supplementing the lost nutrients when you rake those fallen leaves.

Tree Pruning & Trimming

It is easier to spot and cut overgrown or damaged branches now that the leaves are gone. Pruning enhances plant health and makes the tree – as well as your landscape – more beautiful when done the right way.
