Clearing Your Property & Garden For The Upcoming Summer
With the summer months approaching, getting your garden in shape now will allow you to make the most out of your outdoor living space in warmer weather. Even if your current space has become extremely overgrown, there are a number of tools and equipment you can use to get your garden back to its former glory. This article contains a number of useful practices from our overgrown garden clearance London experts to help you regain your outdoor space.
Cleaning The Patio Or Decking
Clearing your patio or decking can feel like a daunting task, but with a bit of preparation it can be completed quickly transforming its appearance. Over the years your outdoor surfaces will have accumulated algae, moss, dirt and weeds, which is why it’s so important to make sure they are maintained.
When you attempt to clean your patio or decking, a pressure washer will be your best friend. Start the process by sweeping any loose dirt or leaves from the surface. You will then be able to begin pressure washing, apply lukewarm soapy water to the surface and let it soak for up to 30 minutes. If you do not have a pressure washer you will have to manually scrub it. After you have thoroughly pressure washed or scrubbed the surface your patio will look completely different. You may have to remove weeds or dirt from the cracks but this can be done with minimal effort.
Reviving The Lawn
The lawn is the centrepiece of most gardens. Making sure that your grass is regularly trimmed and seeded is a great way to improve the aesthetic of your garden. Mowing the lawn can be time-consuming and tiring but it’s also an essential part of maintaining a healthy garden. Before you begin the mowing process you should check what height the blades are at, cutting the grass too short could damage the root leaving your lawn susceptible to disease. You will likely find areas where grass no longer grows, seeding these spots and adding grass clippings will promote growth.
Strimming & Edging
After you have mowed your lawn you will likely find that borders still have tufts of grass that are hard to reach. Using a strimmer will allow you to tackle these hard-to-reach spots with ease. Edging your garden involves creating a clear separation between lawn areas, flower beds, walkways or other hard landscaping features such as patios or decking. Creating borders between the features in your garden is a great way to make your garden look neat and tidy.
