The heat is on . . .
All lawns need some special care during hot, dry weather. When deprived of water, lawn grasses are likely to stop growing and start to brown. This is more likely if the top 10cm (4 inches) of soil becomes dried out.
If well maintained, the lawn will come back, usually once the autumn arrives bringing rainfall, however, in extended periods of drought or where little or no maintenance is carried out lawn grasses will become weak and the roots will suffer and deteriorate.
Added to this if the hot weather continues, as predicted, water may also become a limited resource.
What you can do to help your lawn survive . . .
Autumn is the time to renovate and repair lawns after a long, hot summer. If you would like a free of charge, on-site survey of the lawn with a view to having regular lawn care treatments, please call 0800 848 8055.
