Lawn Maintenance Programs

Niko’s Gardening offers ongoing lawn care and maintenance services throughout the Spring, Summer, and Fall seasons. Maintenance services include lawn mowing, flowerbed cultivation, and pruning from mid April up until the first snowfall. The following details the specific lawn care services involved in each season:

From April to mid June, we offer spring cleanup in addition to mowing, cultivation, and pruning. Our team will take care of aeration, fertilizing, dethatching, and overseeding as necessary. We make sure your lawn and flowerbeds are ready for all the summer has to offer, including high temperatures, droughts, and increased insect activity.

Our summer cleanup lawn services take place between mid June and early August. We’ll provide scheduled grass cutting, remove weeds, apply a summer fertilizer, and water your lawn. Within the first few weeks of August, we’ll handle grub control as this when the majority of the species are most active. Additionally, we offer driveway sealing in preparation for fall and winter weather.

Throughout September, October, and November, our team will provide fall cleanup services on top of our regular lawn maintenance services, which lasts until the first snowfall. This includes applying a fall fertilizer near the start of September and a winter fertilizer in mid October. We also rack leaves and dispose of debris, including sticks and branches.

Our Yard Maintenance Services

Explore our wide range of lawn maintenance services to discover how our team can help you have a healthy lawn all year round:

Lawn Aeration

When soil becomes too compact, it can prevent proper nutrients from reaching grass roots, turning a green healthy lawn into a brown one. Lawn aeration is the solution to return your lawn back to its healthy state. We do this by driving spikes or creating cores into the ground to bring back an exchange of fresh air, water and nutrients to the roots, allowing the roots to grow and produce a healthier lawn.

Lawn fertilizer and core Aeration

Lawn Fertilization

Fertilizers are essential for your lawn to remain healthy and vibrant. At Niko’s Gardening, we have multiple options of fertilizers that are phosphorus rich, natural and pesticide free. Contact our team to set up your personalized lawn fertilization services.

Lawn Mowing

Lawn mowing is essential to maintain that beautiful look of your landscape and prevent the attack of pests and diseases. Having an overgrown lawn or ignoring its maintenance can affect the state of your lawn. To have a healthy lawn, our mowing services are perfect for you. Grass mowing promotes stronger, healthier grass and creates the picturesque green lawn all spring and summer long.

Nikos Sodding Toronto and the GTA

Lawn Rolling

Having uneven or bumpy grass can affect the results of sodding and reseeding by eliminating air pockets, otherwise taking a longer time for grass roots to be established. Our lawn rolling services can help maximize sodding or reseeding results in early Spring just when grass is coming out of dormancy and the roots are in active growth.

Lawn Top Dressing

Layering your grass with materials like sand or compost is called Top Dressing. It adds an organic layer to the topsoil, improving its structure and quality. Our Top Dressing services involves applying compost, soil, or sand over the surface of your lawn. By adding organic matter to soil, we can improve the soil flora and soil structure, overall reducing lawn diseases and traffic stress on your lawn. This is another alternative to reduce the amount of fertilizer required and less thatch buildup.

seeding in lawn

Seeding & Overseeding

Our overseeding and seeding service is a simple yet effective way to grow new grass in empty spots of your lawn without disruption. We introduce new grass seeds into worn-out, patchy or damaged areas, giving them time to absorb the proper nutrients to grow. By doing so we help you rejuvenate existing turf with minimal disturbance to your existing lawn and you only need to add water.

Mid September 2022 Niko's Gardening installed new sod in our backyard. The crew worked steady through the day while keeping an organized and tidy work area. By day's end we had a great looking new lawn. Niko's provided complete and detailed instructions for us to care for the newly sodded lawn with recommendations for cutting and watering. Eight weeks later (November 2022) our backyard looks great and continues to thrive. We are very happy with the work Niko's Gardening has completed for us. E & G Thomson

Greg and his crew did an excellent job on sod installation and the planting of the boxwood and hydrangea. Greg also provided details such as the type of grass that was installed so the post-installation care was easier to plan for. I have received many compliments from neighbors.

Greg examined the state of our lawn and indicated exactly what was needed to transform it into a lush, green turf. Not only did the sod need to be laid, but the underlying soil had to be replenished and built up so that the lawn was even. The workmen were very courteous and the work was carried out exactly as Greg had stated in his estimate. They worked diligently and completed the job in one day. The lawn looks amazing. and I would absolutely recommend Niko's services.

FAQs

When is the best time of the year to mow your lawn?

Early Spring until late Summer is the best time to mow your lawn. This means you can begin mowing near the end of March to the beginning of April and continue until mid to late October.

How often should you mow your lawn?

The ideal mowing frequency varies based on the season, grass type, and your preferred grass height. In the GTA, it’s common to mow once every 7 days in the Spring, once every 4 to 6 days in Summer, and once every other week as Fall starts.

What is the best way to mow your lawn?

Always use a mower with sharp blades and remember to alternate the direction of your mowing, such as left to right, then right to left in order to prevent the grass from leaning one way.

What time of a day can you legally mow my lawn?

In the GTA, we can mow lawns between 7am and 9pm on weekdays and between the hours of 9am and 9pm on weekends.

Can you mow a wet lawn?

No, it’s never a good idea to mow a wet lawn. Cutting wet grass damages its roots and increases the risk of fungal diseases. Pushing a lawn mower on wet grass is also a slipping hazard and can clog your lawn mower.

How much does it cost to mow a lawn?

The cost of our lawn mowing services varies based on property size. For an accurate price estimate, call Niko’s Gardening.
