Our Property Maintenance Services

Dartmouth Landscaping Localturf is a full service lawn care provider.  We offer any and all of the services required to keep your lawn healthy and beautiful, from snow removal services and residential lawn care to garden installations.  The following are a few of our most commonly requested  lawn care services, but this list is by no means all that we can do.  Do not hesitate to reach out to us with even the uniquest of needs!


Power Raking and Lawn Fertilization

Dartmouth’s chilly, coastal climate makes occasional power raking a necessity for a healthy lawn.  As grass and other foliage dies and decomposes, it forms a layer of organic material between the grass and the soil.  This layer is known as thatch.  While a thin layer of thatch is good for your lawn, too much can prevent water and nutrients from passing between your grass and your soil while simultaneously providing the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow.


When the thatch in your yard becomes more than ½ inch thick, it is time to power rake.  Power raking slices up and removes the thatch with minimal damage to your grass.  Once its connection to the soil is restored, we recommend fertilizing your lawn to ensure that it has all the nutrients it needs to thrive.  Even yards that have not just been power raked can benefit from lawn fertilization - if your grass looks less than its best, call us today to see if power raking and fertilization is right for your yard!


Lawn Overseeding and Top Dressing

Do you find yourself being grudgingly grateful that your grass is thin because it allows you to avoid stepping in the holes and sunken in spots that cover your yard?  Or has a new pet dug and destroyed your once pristine lawn?  Overseeding and top dressing can solve these problems and many more.  If your lawn is patchy, thin, or uneven, we have a highly effective repair process.


First, we will spread a thin layer of soil and other organic material over your entire yard.  If there are holes or low spots, we will fill these in with rich top soil until your yard is level.  Once this nutrient-rich blanket is in place, we will spread grass seed over your entire yard.  The fresh soil ensures that both new and existing grass has everything it needs to grow into a thick, lush ground covering.  If you would like, we can even return to water your new lawn regularly until it is ready to thrive on its own!  With a little help from our Dartmouth lawn care experts, your yard will be healthy and free from tripping hazards in no time.

Weed and Moss Control

Weeds can easily overtake any yard, and Dartmouth’s coastal location makes our yards especially susceptible to moss.  You don’t have to resign yourself to occasional patches of moss in the corners of your yard, however.  We have proven weed and moss control methods that will keep pesky plants out of your yard all season long.  All of our weed and moss control solutions are organic and non-toxic, so you never have to worry about harm coming to yourself, your pets, or your desirable plants.  Call us today for a free quote, and say goodbye to weeds and moss!


Paver Installation and Repair

You might have an impressive collection of greenery in your backyard, but what good is it if you can’t leave your porch for two days after every rain?  Every garden needs tidy walkways that will allow it to be tended to and enjoyed.  Our Dartmouth gardeners can do much more than just care for your plants - they can install garden hardscapes as well!  Whether you need safe, easy access to your front door or a winding path through your garden, we can install pavers that will meet your needs in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible.


Even the best laid pavers don’t last forever, unfortunately.  If your pavers are cracked, crooked, or simply weather-worn, we can repair and restore them so that they look like new.  Removing and replacing pavers can be an expensive and time consuming task, not to mention the damage it can cause to nearby grass and plants.  Before you start digging your old pavers out, give us a call.  Restoration will save you time, money, and a potential backache!


Retaining Wall Installation

Retaining walls serve a variety of purposes, both aesthetic and practical.  You might think that you need to hire one of Dartmouth’s construction companies to install a retaining wall, but our landscapers are more than capable of building a retaining wall that will stand the test of time.  And unlike many construction companies, we understand the effect that a retaining wall has on your foliage - a well designed retaining wall can bring new life to a struggling yard, but a poorly designed one can cause drainage nightmares.


The most important part of a good retaining wall is a strong foundation.  Our installers dig deep to ensure that not even the strongest rains and winds will bring your retaining wall crashing down.  With a strong foundation in place, the above-ground section of the wall can be built from a variety of materials to match the design of your home and other landscape elements.  For a retaining wall that is as functional as it is beautiful, call your local Dartmouth landscaping company today!

Landscaping Irrigation and Drainage

You can spend a good deal of time and money on garden maintenance and landscaping, but without a good irrigation and drainage system, you will spend just as much on maintaining your landscape as you did on installing it.  Improper drainage can also contribute to soil erosion and root rot, both of which are guaranteed ways to kill your foliage.  Proper irrigation is an integral part of lawn maintenance in Dartmouth!


A good irrigation and drainage system guarantees that your lawn and each of your plants gets exactly the water it needs when it needs it.  When heavy rains come, it guides excess water through your yard so that no harm is done to your landscape.  While the methods will vary based on your yard’s needs and your preferences, the result will be the same - flourishing plants, stable soil, and a stress-free lawn.


Landscape and Garden Design

Your yard should be a reflection of your style and personality.  Our local landscape designers are experts at bringing out the natural beauty of your space in a way that will make you excited to walk outside every day.  A few tasteful touches of green can make a huge difference in even the smallest of yards.  If bright and bold is more your style, we can fill your yard with vibrant colors and one-of-a-kind decorations. 


Whatever you hope to achieve with your garden landscaping, we have landscapers in Dartmouth who can make it happen.  We will handle your landscaping project from start to finish, so you don’t have to waste time searching all over the city for lawn contractors to complete each step of your yard makeover.  From design to the finishing touches, call us today to schedule the best landscaping Dartmouth, NS has to offer!


Commercial Landscaping and Lawn Care

Our services are not only for residential lawns - we also offer commercial lawn care and commercial landscaping in Dartmouth!  The lawn outside your business is one of the first things your clients will notice when they visit, so it is very important to have a well-manicured lawn.  If you have the space, an eye-catching landscape design can even cause people to notice your business as they pass by (and landscaping is much more cost effective than advertising!).


From small strips of grass near the curb to sprawling lawns, contracting with our Dartmouth lawn care and landscaping experts will remove lawn care from your to-do list and give you more time to focus on what you do best - meeting clients and growing your business.  Let us put our skills to work so that you can make the best use of your skills.  Call us today to see how easy and cost effective professional lawn care can be!
