How To Fix Lawn Dips While Fixing Your Tired Lawn

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

How to fix lawn dips while fixing your tired lawn. A simple guide to lawn levelling.
In this video, I will be showing you how to fix all the various dips and bumps in your lawn. This is carried out during the renovation stage of creating a nice new lawn.
The dip levelling process begins at 23:45, however if you watch all the video parts you can see what order and how I carry out each part (and why).
The end result will be a lawn that looks so much better, and will be much flatter and easier to maintain.

2:04 Unloading - Getting everything where it needs to be
2:46 The 2 parts of a lawn to think about
5:17 Explaining what aeration is and scarification and why we do them

8:51 Clearing up the thatch and moss
10:15 hand scarifying round the edges with the Wolf Garten tool
12:12 How do you know when enough is enough scarifying (when you are only scarifying you don't need to go to this extent)
19:52 Aerating and scarifying the side and rear lawns
20:06 OMG - lunch was amazing!
23:45 LEVELLING the dips
33:22 The rebuilding of the lawn outline (fert, seed, dress)
35:01 Fertiliser spreading using my hand held spreader
36:27 Spreading seed on the lawn
38:37 Spreading compost over the seeds
41:01 Using a lute then a roller to work the mix on, and firm it all down
42:44 Seed, dress, lute and press the side lawn
43:02 Seed, dress, lute and press the front lawn
43:30 Applying Emerald Green to the lawn, and final thoughts
The following tools are what I personally use during my lawn renovations:
In this video, I mention using a Wolf Garten hand scarifying rake and also a compost spreader.
You can get the rake head here: amzn.to/3iReFMN and handle here: amzn.to/3tV9Jgr (these come with a 10-year warranty)
You can get the compost spreader here: www.gardenimports.co.uk/produ... or available here on Amazon: amzn.to/4aJoKUX
Compost used for topdressing:

Other tools used:
Hand held lawn aerator: We love the JNJ premium one here (amzn.to/42PFvLm) but it's sold out - you can watch the review of it here : • A More EFFICIENT Hand ...
in-depth hand-held aerator comparisons: Premium ones: • I bought 2 premium law... Budget ones: • Testing 4 BEST Manual ...
Lawn lute: amzn.to/4cLUVVG

    The only thing better than learning from someone who explains as well as you, and is as clearly knowledgable as you, is getting to listen to your very charming and lovely accent. So nice to know what I've been doing right, and what I can do in addition to improve my lawn. I recently moved to the Pacific Northwest (Washington State, USA). My lawn has shady spots full of moss and sunny spots full of weeds because it was stressed by lack of water a couple of years ago. I wish I could hire you to help me out, but at least I feel like I know what to do now! Thanks so much!

    I am in Washington also and am 77 and my daughter is letting me landscape and work in her yard. She hates yard work. My son mows for her but like your lawn, hers is full of clover and some tiny weeds that flower and dandelions. I need to do all of the things he just showed us but don't have any tools like he has so will have to improvise. I hope it's not too late to get started. I did see some stuff at Home Depot that is soil with seed in it that I might get to join a couple of the steps he showed us. Thank heavens her front and backyard aren't a huge lawn. I first need to find that aerator tool. Wish me luck.

    the largest issue in the pacific northwest is drainage...Very very few lawns were built... they at best had top soil placed on top of what was there and added turf or seed. Lawns are built! there are many people and companies who show you how to build from baser to PGA grass or Lawn Bowling grass!

    This care you’re giving to what appears to be a rather complex lawn is levels above what I’ve seen as typical landscaping work in the U.S. We tend to do mowing and very little else. Oh, yes. I do see amazing lawns here, but I also wonder how costly it is for the full TLC someone like you provides.

Shaved the grass to almost bare soil, threw down the soil and roller it as flat as a could but think iv compacted the soil far to much as when I water the grass seed the water just puddles up. Can't be arsed digging it up and it's almost 2 weeks since I the the seed down and only minimal has germinated lol

    Hi it may push through depending on the depth of soil but I'd probably want to seed.. If I was doing that without seeing I would just add a cm or 2,and bruhd it in between the blades.. Within the dip.. Let the grass grow taller then repeatevery few weeks

    Yes absolutely small amounts work well.. Just grab a bag of topsoil once a month and work it into any dips.. But no more than a cm or so each time so you don't smother the grass.. In time you'll be adding a cm a month to build up the dips and the grass will grow longer
