Lawn Maintenance Services in Greater Montreal

Keep your lawn healthy and neat with routine maintenance plans for homes and condos.

Consistent lawn maintenance is the foundation of a healthy, attractive property throughout the Montreal growing season, which runs from late April through mid-November. Our maintenance programs are structured as weekly or bi-weekly visits that include mowing at the optimal height of three to three-and-a-half inches, string trimming around obstacles, edging along walkways and driveways, and blowing clippings from hard surfaces. We adjust mowing height seasonally -- slightly higher in the heat of July and August to protect roots from heat stress, and gradually lower in fall for the final cut before winter. Beyond basic mowing, our comprehensive plans include spring dethatching to remove matted organic debris from winter, core aeration in early fall to relieve compaction and improve water and nutrient penetration, and overseeding thin areas with a shade or sun-appropriate grass seed blend. Fertilization follows a four-application program timed to Quebec growing conditions: a balanced spring feed, a slow-release summer formula, a fall root-builder high in potassium, and a late-season winterizer. We use granular fertilizers compliant with Quebec pesticide regulations, which restrict many synthetic chemical lawn treatments. Our crews follow the same route schedule each week so you always know when to expect service. We serve residential properties, condo associations, and multi-unit buildings across Montreal, Laval, Brossard, Longueuil, and surrounding areas.

FAQ for this service

How often should a lawn be mowed in Montreal during the summer?

We recommend weekly mowing during the active growing season from May through September. During peak growth in June, some lawns benefit from twice-weekly cuts. In the slower growth periods of early spring and late fall, bi-weekly mowing is usually sufficient. We never remove more than one-third of the blade height per cut to keep the lawn healthy.

Is lawn aeration necessary and when should it be done?

Core aeration is one of the most beneficial treatments for Montreal lawns. It relieves soil compaction from foot traffic and heavy clay soils, improves water and nutrient absorption, and helps roots grow deeper. The best time is early September when the grass is actively growing and can recover quickly before winter dormancy.

Are chemical lawn treatments allowed in Quebec?

Quebec has strict pesticide regulations that ban most synthetic herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides for cosmetic lawn use. We use approved organic and biological alternatives including corn gluten for weed suppression, nematodes for grub control, and iron-based moss treatments. Proper cultural practices like correct mowing height and aeration are the best defense against weeds and disease.
