Professional scarification and overseeding across South East London.
Organic, child and pet-friendly methods. From £249.
If your lawn is patchy, mossy, or just not looking its best, the problem is almost always thatch. A dense layer of dead material sitting below the surface, blocking water and nutrients from reaching the grass roots. No amount of lawn mowing or watering will fix it.
Our professional lawn treatment tackles the root cause. Scarification strips out the thatch and overseeding fills in the gaps with hardy, child and pet-friendly Sprogs and Dogs grass seed. One visit, genuinely beautiful results.
One-visit lawn treatment from £249. Priced by lawn size, not by the hour. Every visit includes the full process below.
Grass seed is not included but can be purchased as an add-on when booking.
We mow the lawn short so new seeds have the best chance. Then our professional scarifier strips out the thatch and moss that is suffocating your grass.
All thatch and debris raked up and cleared. Bare patches hand-raked to loosen the surface for better seed germination.
Premium grass seed designed for children and pets, with strong germination in shady or sunny gardens. Professional seed spreader for even coverage, with a double pass on bare patches.
We water the seeds in and leave you with clear aftercare instructions. Your lawn needs a few weeks to reach first-mow height, then it thickens up beautifully.
One professional visit gives you a thick, lush, green lawn that you will genuinely enjoy spending time on. Our specialist scarifier and seed spreader, combined with pet-friendly Sprogs and Dogs seed, deliver lasting results in a single session. Organic, child and pet-safe methods mean your family can enjoy the lawn worry-free from the moment it is established.

Book online and we message you on WhatsApp to ask for pictures of your lawn. This lets us plan the best approach and check if extra seed is needed for bare patches. On the day, we work through the full process - mow, scarify, rake, seed, and water - then leave you with clear aftercare instructions.
For the best results, book once in early spring and once in late summer or early autumn. By next year your lawn will look completely different. It is a one-and-done service each time - no ongoing commitment, no follow-up visits needed.
Grass seed is not included in the price. You can add it as a booking add-on or supply your own.

Early autumn or spring are ideal, but we can improve lawns year round with appropriate techniques.
New grass seed germinates within days. Your lawn then needs a few weeks to grow to the right height for its first mow (around 8 to 10cm). For the best results, book once in spring and once in early autumn - by next year your lawn will look completely different.
Never. All our methods are organic, safe for children, pets, and wildlife while being highly effective.
Moss takes hold when thatch builds up and blocks water and nutrients from reaching the grass. Professional scarification removes the moss and thatch layer completely, and overseeding introduces fresh grass that fills in the space. With proper aftercare, the moss does not come back as strongly because the grass is thick enough to outcompete it.
Scarification is the process of removing the layer of thatch and dead moss that builds up below the surface of your lawn. We use a professional electric scarifier that cuts through this layer and pulls it out. Even a small lawn produces a surprising amount of material. Once removed, water, air, and nutrients can reach the grass roots again, and new seed has the best conditions to germinate.
Completely. We use Sprogs and Dogs grass seed which is specifically designed for family gardens with children and pets. All our methods are organic with no chemicals. Your family can use the lawn safely once the new grass has established and reached mowing height.
No, grass seed is not included in the service price. You can either purchase it as an add-on when booking via our online calendar, or supply your own. If you already have seed, we are happy to use it. If not, we use Sprogs and Dogs seed which is child and pet-friendly and germinates well in South East London conditions.
