Lawn Renovations

Lawn renovations are essential for maintaining a healthy, vibrant lawn, especially after periods of heavy use or seasonal stress. Renovating involves practices such as dethatching, aerating, re-seeding, and top dressing, which help improve soil structure, promote better water absorption, and encourage robust grass growth. The best time for lawn renovations in Australia is typically during early autumn or early spring when soil temperatures are moderate, and rainfall is more predictable.

Dethatching your lawn means removing the dead grass, roots, and debris that block water and nutrients from reaching the soil. This helps your grass grow healthier, stronger, and greener. It's the first step to giving your lawn a fresh, healthy start.

DETHATCHING

Aerating your lawn is the key to a greener, healthier yard. It makes small holes in the soil so air, water, and nutrients reach the roots. This loosens the soil, helps roots grow stronger, and keeps your lawn looking lush and vibrant. Whether you’re starting new or keeping up a nice lawn, aeration helps your grass thrive.

Topdressing your lawn means spreading a thin layer of good soil over it. This helps your grass grow stronger roots, absorb nutrients better, and improves soil health. It also fixes bare spots, evens out the ground, and helps with drainage. At Kingston & Co. Lawn Care, we know a healthy lawn starts with a strong base, and topdressing is a simple way to make your lawn look great.

Overseeding your lawn gives it a fresh start to grow thick, green, and healthy. By adding new grass seeds to bare or thin spots, it fills gaps and makes your lawn fuller. This easy step boosts your yard’s look and strength, so you can enjoy a beautiful outdoor space all season. Whether recovering from winter or getting ready for summer, overseeding helps your lawn stay healthy and vibrant.

Fertilising your lawn during renovation helps feed new grass and revive old turf. The right fertiliser supports strong growth, deep roots, and better resistance to stress. At Kingston & Co. Lawn Care, we mix fertilising with topdressing to improve soil and nutrient supply, helping your lawn recover fast and stay healthy. A well-fed lawn during renovation creates the base for thick, green grass you’ll love.

FAQ’s

  • Lawn renovation is a process of improving a tired, patchy, or weed-infested lawn without starting over completely. It typically includes aeration, dethatching, and overseeding. The best time for lawn renovation in most climates is in mid-spring or early autumn. This allows new grass seeds to establish strong roots before the harsh winter weather arrives, and it's also a time when weed competition is minimal.

  • The cost of lawn renovation services depends on the size of your lawn and the specific services you require. We offer transparent pricing for a custom package that may include aeration, dethatching, and overseeding. A typical lawn rejuvenation package may cost more than a standard mow, but it is a significant investment in the long-term health and appearance of your lawn.
