Real lawns, real transformations

Want that flawless, picture perfect lawn? Moss and thatch can suffocate your grass leaving it brown, patchy and spongy underfoot.

Our moss and thatch control service, often referred to as scarification, cuts through the build up fast, restoring firmness and boosting growth for a lawn that’s ready to enjoy again.

Why choose our moss and thatch control service:

Moss and thatch act like a barrier, blocking sunlight, water, and nutrients from reaching your grass. Our treatment clears that layer, so your lawn can grow thick, healthy, and vibrant, not just now, but season after season.

 

In cases of heavier moss and thatch build up, we may recommend our intensive moss and thatch control to address the specific condition of your lawn.

Left untreated, moss and thatch create the perfect conditions for weeds and insects to take over. Our targeted treatment clears away the build-up so your grass can thrive. It’s a smarter way to keep your lawn looking its best.

Moss and thatch hold water on the surface, causing soggy areas and patchy growth. Our treatment removes this layer, improving drainage and nutrient uptake, leaving you with a stronger lawn that is easier to maintain.

A thick layer of moss and thatch can make your lawn feel soft and uneven. By clearing it away, we leave your lawn firmer, more level, and more enjoyable to walk, run, and play on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Interested in moss and thatch control for your lawn?

The first sign to look out for is if your lawn has an uneven colour or doesn’t look as green as you would like, alongside any issues with your grass not growing properly. Our experts can fully assess your space to check for moss and thatch, before deciding on the most appropriate control methods and treatments to give you a beautiful-looking, healthy lawn.

All of our treatments are safe for pets and children, so they can get outside and enjoy the lawn the way they’re supposed to. If there are any recommendations for keeping pets off the lawn for a period of time, then our experts will advise you on everything you need to know.

Our experts will also remove any debris, leaving your space clean and tidy ready to be enjoyed again.

It’s important to keep on top of moss and thatch control. We recommend annual treatments to keep your garden healthy and thriving. With a monthly lawn care package, we will carry out moss and thatch control as part of your ongoing lawn care plan.

There are several benefits to having ongoing moss and thatch control, including improving the drainage of your soil, promoting new grass growth, controlling weeds, reducing the risk of disease, and making your lawn more resilient to wear and tear.

Moss can also create a dreaded ‘spongy’ feeling underfoot. By eliminating moss from your lawn, you can get a firmer, more hardy lawn that the whole family can enjoy.

I would highly recommend Greensleeves

I would highly recommend Greensleeves who restored our baron-looking lawn which had been eaten away by chauffer grubs to a lush green fantastic lawn in a matter of months and we now have them every few months to keep our lawn looking lush and beautiful by treating it. Also lovely pleasant and helpful staff. Thank you Greensleeves.

Greensleeves have done a fabulous job…

Greensleeves have done a fabulous job on the lawn in our new house – turning it from a weed-infected patch of green to a true grass lawn. All in the space of a few months during initially very challenging weather conditions. Very happy with the progress that has been made – thank you.

Good service and good people!

I have been using Greensleeves for a few years now and I am pleased with both their products and service and they definitely know what they are talking about. They come on the day they say they will come, they execute their work quickly and efficiently and above all our lawn has really benefitted from their service.

Excellent service

We have only just started using Greensleeves but our impression of the company so far is very good. All contact with them has been dealt with promptly and professionally. The first lawn treatment was carried out as arranged today and my husband had a couple of queries regarding the lawn and these were answered in a friendly and informative manner.

Highly recommend

This Company do a great job of keeping my lawn in tip-top condition. They are very knowledgeable and I feel very reasonable for a job that definitely requires a level of expertise. I initially tried treating my lawn myself but got nowhere near the results of Greensleeves. Would highly recommend.
