What a hot summer, I know everybody’s lawn and landscape is in tatters from the tremendous heat we’ve had; and if your lawn is full of crabgrass, don’t worry, you’re not the only one. With the warm days and cool nights approaching, September is the best time to install the turf and landscaping that you’re looking for. You can view the full range of services we provide at www.barkerconstruct.com.
Trees and bushes will perform best if they’re planted now, which will give them several months to take root before winter sets in. Other “must” do chores for September include mulching your beds and trees, fertilize and over-seed the lawn, and reduce the amount of daily watering on the timer. Don’t forget those fall “bulbs” (tulips, iris, daffodils, etc.), nothing tells you Spring is on the way like a patch of Daffodils popping up.
Give us a call for a free deck check up. Now’s the time to repair or replace old weathered decking and rails; maybe with the newer, maintenance free composite decking; or just give it a good coat of stain for the long winter ahead. When planning your landscape, don’t forget the hardscape items as well. Now is a great time to “extend” your backyard patio with a beautiful paver patio, or stamped concrete. Enjoy the beautiful September weeks to come and give us a call if we can help you out.
