5 Signs Your Lawn Needs Professional Help

If your lawn has areas where grass simply refuses to grow, it’s often a sign of deeper issues. Soil compaction, poor drainage, pests, or low‑quality seed can all cause patchy grass. While reseeding may seem like a quick fix, bare patches often return without addressing the root cause. Lawns at new build properties will often struggle due to being laid on poor soil quality that will often contain rocks and rubble.

Professional lawn repair specialists use aeration, soil improvement, and tailored reseeding techniques to restore growth. By improving soil structure and applying lawn treatments, experts ensure new grass establishes properly and blends seamlessly with the rest of your lawn.

Weeds in lawn areas and moss growth are more than cosmetic problems—they compete with grass for nutrients and moisture. DIY weed killers or moss removal products often provide temporary relief but fail to tackle the underlying conditions.

Our professional lawn treatments are safe, targeted solutions that protect your grass while eliminating invasive weeds. As lawn care specialists, we also focus on improving soil health and drainage to stop moss and weeds from returning.

Yellowing or thinning grass can signal nutrient deficiencies, poor soil quality, or even lawn disease. Without proper diagnosis, homeowners risk wasting money on generic fertilisers that don’t solve the problem.

Experts conduct soil testing to identify exactly what your lawn needs. Tailored feeding programmes, often using organic lawn treatments, restore colour and vitality while protecting the environment. Professional care ensures your lawn receives the right balance of nutrients for long‑term health.

Chafer grubs, leatherjackets, and other lawn pests can devastate grass roots, leaving unsightly patches and attracting birds or wildlife that dig up the turf. Spotting pest damage early is crucial, but DIY solutions rarely provide lasting control.

TopGrass can help to diagnose pest problems accurately and provide control methods, like that of our Grub Control Treatment, that protect your garden without harming pets or children. Professional intervention not only removes pests but also strengthens your lawn against future infestations.

Fungal infections such as red thread or fusarium can spread quickly, leaving your lawn weak and discoloured. Our Red Thread Treatment helps to tackle both red thread and fusarium, enabling your lawns recovery from these diseases.

Professional lawn disease treatment combines accurate diagnosis with tailored solutions, from improving airflow and drainage to applying safe treatments. By addressing the conditions that allow disease to thrive, specialists prevent long‑term damage and restore your lawn’s resilience.
