Lawn care program

The best lawn in the street.

Perth lawns grow on sand that repels water and holds almost no nutrients. Fertiliser alone won't fix that. Our program builds the soil first, so your lawn stays green through summer on less water.

Our approach

Air, Biology, Carbon

A

Air

Compacted soil starves roots. We core, mow at the right height for your grass and keep thatch under control so water and oxygen get in.

B

Biology

Healthy soil is alive. Kelp, humates and the right fertiliser at the right time feed the soil life that feeds your lawn.

C

Carbon

Perth sand holds almost nothing. Organic matter, mulched clippings and soil wetters help it hold water and nutrients through summer.

Through the year

What happens each season

Every treatment is timed to Perth's seasons and matched to your grass, whether it's buffalo, kikuyu or couch.
