Fall & Spring Lawn Maintenance in St. Louis, MO

If you fail to clean up your lawn and perform regular maintenance in late fall and early spring it can have repercussions later in the year. Fall and spring lawn maintenance will help ensure healthy lawn growth each summer by preparing your grass for the main growing season and the tough summer heat. You have most likely seen lawns filled with brown spots and sparse, patchy growth. This is the result of neglecting lawn care.

Fall and spring lawn maintenance typically take only a few days, but each of these can be a good long-term investment, as it will ensure that your lawn and all of your landscaping is ready to look its best throughout the year.

While each task is typically best performed at a specific time of the year, fall and spring lawn maintenance can include a variety of things such as re-mulching, shrub trimming, debris clean up, dethatching, mowing, re-seeding, and fertilizing.

How Can We Help With Fall & Spring Lawn Maintenance?

At Metro Lawn Sprinklers and Landscapes, we can offer a variety of fall and spring lawn maintenance and landscaping clean up services for customers located in St. Louis and surrounding areas. Here is a list of some of the services we can provide.

• Yard Cleanup: The most basic fall and spring lawn maintenance service is a basic yard cleanup. This includes cleaning up and removing dead leaves, plants, branches, flowers, gumballs, and any other old plant waste from your yard and landscaping. This service is often necessary in the late fall and early spring, although exact timing will depend on the types of trees and plants included in your landscaping and when they lose their leaves.
• Re-Mulching: Mulching is typically done in the early spring. This process includes adding new, fresh mulch or landscape rock to existing flowerbeds and around trees and shrubbery. It will help keep your landscaping looking fresh and prevent weeds throughout the spring and fall.
• Lawn Edging: Lawn edging demarcates the lawn from flowerbeds, sidewalks, and driveways. Edging the lawn will prevent grass from spreading from the lawn and growing over pathways and other landscaped areas.
• Tree & Shrub Trimming: In order to keep your trees and shrubs looking their best, it is important to trim them every spring or fall, depending on the type of pant. This part of fall and spring maintenance is unfortunately often overlooked until plants and bushes have become very overgrown.
• Aeration: Lawn aerating is another important lawn maintenance service, often performed as part of basic fall lawn maintenance, this will help encourage deep root growth and can allow seed and fertilizer to reach deep into the soil.
• Re-seeding: If you have noticed bald patches on your lawn, brown spots, or thinning, re-seeding or lawn overseeding can make such areas green again by encouraging new grass growth. Reseeding the lawn can improve the curb appeal and make the lawn more lush and inviting. Depending on the condition of your lawn, overseeding may be recommended as a fall or spring lawn maintenance service.
• Fertilizing: Fertilizers provide essential nutrients for your lawn to promote the best possible growth. Therefore, lawn fertilization is an important part of both fall and spring lawn maintenance.
