Your Spring Checklist for Lawn, Fencing and Patio Maintenance in Stafford
As the Staffordshire winter fades and spring arrives, your garden is ready for a fresh start. Whether you’ve had recent landscaping work or are looking to revitalise your outdoor space, early spring is the perfect time to maintain and protect your lawn, fencing, and patio. A well-kept garden not only looks great but also extends the lifespan of your outdoor features and prepares everything for the warmer months ahead.
Here’s your ultimate spring maintenance checklist, tailored for Stafford homeowners.
Lawn Care: Revive Your Grass After Winter
Stafford’s damp winters can leave lawns looking patchy, compacted or moss-ridden. Spring is your opportunity to get your lawn back in shape.
Scarify and aerate your lawn to remove moss and thatch buildup, improving air and water flow.
Reseed bare patches and apply a spring lawn feed high in nitrogen for lush green growth.
Mow carefully – the first cut of the year should be higher to avoid shocking the grass.
Edge and define your lawn borders to give your garden a clean, professional look.
If you’re short on time or considering a complete refresh, TC Fencing & Landscaping offers turfing services in Stafford, including natural and artificial options for low-maintenance lawns.
Fencing Checks: Protect Your Property Boundaries
Your fencing takes a beating over winter, especially in Staffordshire’s wet and windy conditions. Don’t wait until summer to discover damage or weak panels.
Inspect all fence panels, posts, and gravel boards for rot, cracks, or storm damage.
Tighten or replace any loose fixings, and re-secure unstable posts with concrete if needed.
Clean your fencing with a jet wash or mild detergent to remove algae, dirt, and debris.
Treat timber fencing with a protective stain or preservative to extend its lifespan.
If your fence is beyond repair or no longer provides the privacy and security you need, TC’s fencing installers in Stafford can replace or upgrade it with stylish, durable solutions – from featheredge to decorative trellis panels.
Patio Maintenance: Refresh and Rejuvenate
Your patio is the centrepiece of your outdoor living space, but winter can leave it stained, slippery, or looking tired.
Pressure wash to remove moss, grime, and algae that cause slipping hazards.
Check pointing between slabs for damage or erosion, and re-pointing as necessary.
Clean with a specialist patio cleaner (especially for natural stone or porcelain) to restore its original finish.
Add sealant to help protect the surface from moisture, stains, and weeds.
