What’s Included In Our Lawn Winterization Package
At Jay-Lan, our team is focused on ensuring your lawn is ready for the winter. The process we take in ensuring your lawn is winterized is in-depth, and focuses on maximum grass care and preservation of health. The focus during our team’s process is to make sure your lawn stays healthy, retains color, and is kept immaculately. This makes it easier for your lawn to be maintained and restored to its optimum state when the weather turns cold. Below are some of the key actions we take when winterizing your lawn:
- Fertilization: We will apply a winterizing fertilizer that helps strengthen the root system of your grass while also promoting nutrient retention throughout the winter.
- Aeration: We believe aeration is key for proper winterization, and allow this before winterizing to prevent soil compaction and help with improved water absorption.
- Overseeding: Our goal in overseeding is to help spread new seeds and improve the density your lawn will have when temperatures get warmer.
- Mowing: Before we finish up for the winter, we will cut your grass to a height that is optimal for preventing disease. This helps prevent stress and keep your grass healthy. We will also remove excess debris for a cleaner lawn.
- Winterization Of Sprinklers: Lastly, our winterization package also ensures your sprinklers and other irrigation systems are ready for the freezing temps. This includes blowing out sprinkler lines to ensure freezing does not occur, which can severely damage your water lines.
As you can see, it takes quite a bit of effort, knowledge, and time to truly winterize your lawn. Our team of professionals is trained in all of these skills and will work with you to ensure your lawn is as prepared as it can be come wintertime.
Benefits Of Professional Winter Lawn Care
The harsh reality of cold Midwest temperatures is why so many take the time to have their lawns winterized. Cold temperatures can destroy lawns, leading to poor aesthetics and a lack of functionality. Furthermore, a damaged lawn can lead to an increase in pests and an environment in which weeds grow rapidly. Below are some of the key benefits that come along with professional winterization of your lawn:
- Strengthens Roots: By protecting your lawn and applying winter fertilizer, you can help strengthen roots that will face harsh conditions in colder temps. This ensures that when Spring rolls around, your grass has a great starting point to grow back again.
- Prepares For Dormancy: Some grass types, such as fescue, enter dormancy in the winter. This means the grass needs the proper nutrients and structure in order to survive this dormancy period.
- Reduces Winter Damage: The damage from cold temperatures stresses grass. This comes from frost damage and snow compaction. This damage can lead to poor drainage and a better environment for unwanted weeds and pests to thrive.
- Prevents Disease: Snow mold, winter weeds, and other diseases caused by the cold weather are avoided with proper winterization.
These benefits all lead to a lawn in the Spring that is able to grow more densely and offer a much better green color. Furthermore, the benefits shared above ensure your lawn is fully functional, making it ideal for the many uses you may have for it during the warmer months of the year. Proper winterization helps with a better overall lawn when you need to use it in the Spring and Summer.
