Lawn care in Bearsden, from front lawns to shaded back greens
A broad, even front lawn is part of the look of many Bearsden houses, and it shows quickly when it slips. Our lawn care here ranges from routine cutting to bringing a tired lawn back into condition.
Routine cutting
Lawns are cut on a regular cycle from spring to autumn, with the height set for the time of year and every visit finished by edging along paths, drives and borders. On a large lawn, clean edges make as much difference to how it looks as the cut itself.
Bringing a lawn back
Lawns under the large trees found across much of Bearsden often thin out and fill with moss. Renovation usually means scarifying out the moss and thatch, aerating ground that has packed down, then top dressing and overseeding thin areas, then feeding. It takes a season to show its full effect, and we are clear about that from the start.
Feeding and weeds
Feeding and weed treatment are scheduled through the year so the grass grows thick enough to crowd out weeds and moss by itself.

Lawn and grass maintenance in Bearsden: common questions
How often should a Bearsden lawn be cut?
In the main growing season, usually every week or fortnight. Growth slows in a dry summer and almost stops in winter, so the schedule changes through the year.
Can a mossy lawn under trees be saved?
Sometimes. Where the shade is light, scarifying, aerating and overseeding can bring it back. Under dense canopy grass may never hold, and planting or artificial grass is the more honest answer.
Do you lay new turf in Bearsden?
Yes. The old lawn is stripped, the soil levelled and prepared, and new turf laid close-jointed and rolled firm, followed by aftercare advice.
