From season to season our team of dedicated landscapers work hard to keep your lawn looking its best.
Starting in early Spring, we begin with the fertilization process. Toronto’s weather in early April are the perfect conditions for over-seeding when the days are warm but the nights are cool. We use the perfect blend of warm- and cool-season grasses to survive our changing climate.
To maintain a healthy lush lawn, we use sharp blades on well maintained equipment. It is necessary to adjust the cutting height for different seasons to ensure your lawn does not get stressed out and go dormant. We mulch the grass clipping to retain that vital 80% water and nutrients and reduce the amount of water your lawn needs. We know grass and can design a mowing schedule for your lawn that cuts your grass every 5 days in Spring when the grass is growing fastest and slows down to once a week in the Summer.

Lawn Cutting
It’s more than just cutting a lawn! To maintain a healthy lush lawn we use sharp blades on well maintained equipment. It is necessary to adjust your cutting height for different seasons to ensure your lawn does not get stressed out and go dormant. We mulch the grass clipping to retain that vital 80% water and nutrients and reduce the amount of water your lawn needs.
Lawn Fertilizing
Healthy plant material is nurtured through the use of a well-balanced fertilizer. We customize your fertilizing program to meet the needs of your grass to ensure a lush green lawn. Treatments for crabgrass prevention and broadleaf weed control are also available.
Aeration and Overseeding
Aeration has many benefits as it counteracts the effects of soil compaction therefore allowing water, air and nutrients to be more readily available to your lawn's root system. It also gives your lawn resistance against drought during the hot summer months. Aeration works very well with topdressing and overseeding. The best time to apply this treatment is late in April or early May so any bare spots can be treated in the process. ELM Landscaping staff will be happy to ensure soil surfaces are left smooth to maintain a neat appearance.
