Even though winter might have your lawn care routine on pause, it’s actually the perfect time to prepare your yard for a healthy, vibrant spring. At Back Your Yard, we believe in proactive care, so we’re here to offer a few key tips to keep your lawn in top shape—even when the grass isn't growing.
1. Clean Up Fallen Leaves and Debris
Winter winds and snow can bring a lot of debris onto your lawn. Taking the time to remove leaves, twigs, and other clutter now can help prevent mold and mildew growth. Plus, it prevents your lawn from becoming suffocated under a blanket of dead organic material when the thaw comes. If you’re not up for the task, our exterior cleaning services can help clear your yard efficiently.
2. Rethink Your Landscaping for the Year Ahead
While you might not be planting anything new during the colder months, winter is a great time to start thinking about landscaping updates. Whether you’re dreaming of a new flower bed or considering a complete garden redesign, now is the time to get your plans in place. We can help you map out a strategy that’ll make sure your outdoor spaces look their best when warmer weather arrives.
3. Prune Trees and Shrubs for Healthy Growth
Did you know that winter is the perfect time to prune certain trees and shrubs? Dormant season pruning reduces the risk of diseases and encourages stronger, healthier growth come spring. Let Back Your Yard help you trim your trees and bushes, ensuring they’re ready to thrive when the temperatures rise.
4. Protect Your Lawn from Winter Damage
Even in the off-season, your lawn needs a little TLC. Prevent winter kill by aerating and overseeding in late fall. If you’ve missed this, no worries—our team can help assess your lawn’s needs and set you up for success in the spring with tailored treatments. This small investment now will lead to lush, green grass when the snow melts.
5. Stay Ahead of the Curb Appeal Curve
While many homeowners are hibernating during the winter months, this is a great time to focus on improving your home’s exterior curb appeal. Whether it’s power washing your driveway, deck, or siding, or giving your fences a touch-up, we can handle all those exterior cleaning jobs that keep your property looking its best—even when the temperatures dip.
6. Set Yourself Up for a Successful Spring Lawn Care Plan
Winter downtime is also the perfect opportunity to plan for spring lawn care. Getting an early start ensures that you’ll be the first on the list when the snow melts, so your lawn gets the care it needs right away.
