Why it matters

What makes our fertilizing different

01

Canadian lawns face a tough combination of wet winters, shaded yards, and soil that can quickly turn acidic, all conditions that moss loves and healthy grass doesn't. Our franchisees start by assessing what your lawn actually needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all treatment, then apply a seasonal blend of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium suited to your soil and the time of year.

02

Where moss has taken hold, we combine environmentally responsible moss control products with lime applications to rebalance soil pH and make the ground far less hospitable to future moss growth. We'll also clear away dead moss and debris so nutrients and water can actually reach the soil instead of getting trapped above it.

03

Because fertilizing works best as part of a bigger picture, your Jim's Mowing franchisee will also share practical advice on mowing height and watering habits, and flag when aeration or dethatching would help your lawn get more from every application, all aimed at avoiding common problems like fertilizer burn and uneven growth.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How often should my lawn be fertilized?

Most lawns do best with a seasonal fertilizing program, typically a few applications spread across spring, summer, and fall, timed to match your grass type and local climate. Your local franchisee can recommend a schedule based on your lawn's current condition.

Can fertilizing help with moss or bare patches?

Yes. Balanced fertilizing strengthens grass so it can out-compete moss and weeds, while lime applications help correct the soil pH that lets moss take hold in the first place. It pairs especially well with aeration or dethatching for bare or thinning areas.

How much does Fertilizing cost?

The cost depends on the size and condition of your property and how often you'd like the service done. Request a free, no-obligation quote and your local Jim's Mowing franchisee will put together pricing specific to your property.

Are Jim's Mowing franchisees insured and trained?

Yes. Every Jim's Mowing franchisee operates independently but is trained and held to the same standards for reliability, professionalism, and workmanship, and carries appropriate insurance for your peace of mind.
