As the Perth winter winds down, many homeowners start noticing that their lawns don’t look as lush and vibrant as they’d like. That’s where vertimowing comes in. Spring is the perfect time to give your lawn this treatment and set it up for strong growth heading into summer.
Over time, lawns build up a layer of thatch – dead grass, roots, and debris that form just above the soil surface. A little thatch is fine, but too much stops water, air, and nutrients from reaching the roots. Vertimowing uses special blades to cut vertically into the turf and remove that layer, letting your lawn breathe again.
Spring in Perth provides the ideal conditions for recovery. The soil is warming, daylight hours are increasing, and lawns like couch and buffalo are actively growing. This means your lawn will bounce back quickly after vertimowing and thicken up before the hot summer sun arrives.
Vertimowing is a once-or-twice a year job, and spring is the best window for Perth homeowners. By investing a little now, you’ll have a lawn that not only survives summer but thrives in it.
