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.
