Clearing away winter debris and prepping your yard ensures your plants, lawn, and garden beds are ready to thrive. Scapers Landscaping provides professional spring cleanup services to make your Maryland property shine.
1. Remove Debris
Clear out the remnants of winter to give your yard a fresh start:
Rake Leaves and Twigs: Remove fallen leaves, branches, and other debris that accumulated during winter.
Clean Up Garden Beds: Pull out dead annuals, trim back perennials, and remove weeds to create tidy, welcoming beds.
Inspect Trees and Shrubs: Check for broken branches or winter damage, and prune as needed.
2. Refresh Mulch and Edges
Give your beds a polished look:
Reapply Mulch: Add a fresh layer of mulch to suppress weeds, retain soil moisture, and improve the appearance of your garden beds.
Redefine Edges: Use a spade or edger to create crisp borders around beds and pathways for a clean, professional look.
3. Test and Improve Soil
Healthy soil is the foundation of a thriving yard:
Test Soil Quality: Check pH levels and nutrient content to determine what your soil needs for optimal plant health.
Add Amendments: Incorporate compost or fertilizer to enrich the soil and prepare it for spring planting.
4. Tackle Lawn Care
Don’t forget your grass during your cleanup:
Dethatch if Needed: Remove built-up thatch that could block water and nutrients from reaching the soil.
Address Bare Spots: Reseed any thinning or damaged areas to encourage even growth.
Aerate the Lawn: Consider aeration to improve root health and allow better absorption of nutrients.
5. Inspect Irrigation Systems
Ensure your irrigation setup is ready for the season:
Check for Damage: Look for leaks, clogs, or broken sprinkler heads caused by winter freezing.
Adjust Timers: Set your system to water based on the spring weather and your lawn’s needs.
