5 Ways to Deal with Dandelions in your Lawn

Corn Gluten Fertilizer

Our Corn Gluten Fertilizer is one of the most eco friendly yet effective options to prevent the spread of weeds since the ban on pesticides came into effect. Aside from manually trimming weeds, there aren’t many options available to prevent the growth or spread, and the ones available aren’t as effective. Ask us how!

Dethatching

Thatch is a layer of dead grass that stops water, air and healthy nutrients from reaching the soil. If you lawn has an excessive amount of thatch, it is more likely to have problems with diseases. Keeping your lawn healthy means dethatching is required. Our dethatching involves power raking to remove the dead grass. In Vaughan and the GTA, the best time to dethatch is early fall.

Garden Tilling

With the limited gardening season in the GTA, getting your vegetable garden to grow properly can be challenging but with our garden tilling services, we can take preparation in early Spring to optimize results. Our garden tilling includes soil aeration, removing and killing weeds and adding organic fertilizers to prepare your soil for a better crop season.

Sodding, Sodding Repair & Resodding

When you need an instant new lawn, or need to repair or replace a certain area of your existing lawn, our sodding services are time saving solutions for you. Our exclusive farm grown sod is cultivated, pre-grown and nurtured in a controlled environment, so you can trust you’re getting the best options of sod for your instant lawn replacement needs in 1 day.

Gravel and Riverstone Installation

Gravel and riverstones are mostly installed on the sides of your house where grass doesn’t naturally grow. They can also be used for pathways and driveway, making the area look bigger and help with water to flow away from your house.

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.
