be, such as over signage, onto footpaths or into car parks. It’s also important to trim hedges and trees regularly to maintain good access.
Something else to consider is your outdoor lighting. Keeping overgrowth away from sockets or lighting will reduce fire risks and other safety hazards.
Lawn health Lawns need to have a slightly higher cut in the summer to reduce stress on the grass and conserve water. It can also be helpful to aerate any compacted soil to encourage deep root growth and to reduce water run-off.
Plant care Your plants should be regularly inspected for any signs of plant stress, disease or damage. You can remove dead flower heads and trim overgrowth to encourage fresh new blooms. A top tip is to use mulch around plants to retain moisture. This also helps to regulate soil temperature on hot days and supresses any weeds.
Get ready for autumn Now is a good time to start preparing for autumn and the summer clean-up so think about booking in with an expert landscaper in advance to prepare for the challenges of the next season.
