Preparing Your Commercial Landscape for Spring

As the days get longer and the temperatures begin to rise, now is the perfect time to give your outdoor spaces the attention they need. At Brewood Landscapes, commercial landscapers in the Midlands, we know how important it is to prepare your grounds for spring whether you're managing a business park, retail site, school, or public facility. A well-maintained landscape not only enhances your site's appearance but also promotes healthy growth and reduces the risk of costly repairs later in the year.

Why Spring is Crucial for Landscape Health

Spring is a pivotal time in the landscape calendar. After winter’s harsh conditions, your green spaces may be showing signs of wear: compacted soil, overgrown hedges, debris buildup, and struggling turf. A proactive approach now will ensure your outdoor areas are safe, tidy, and flourishing by the time summer arrives.

Seasonal landscaping also helps with:

• Encouraging new plant growth

• Controlling pests and diseases early

• Reducing long-term maintenance costs

• Improving first impressions for visitors and clients

  
  

Essential Spring Landscaping Tasks

Our team of Midlands landscaping contractors recommends the following key tasks as part of a spring clean-up:

1. Debris Clearance & Lawn Recovery

Leaves, twigs, and winter litter should be removed to allow lawns and borders to breathe. Aerating compacted grass areas and applying an early feed can help revive tired-looking turf.

2. Pruning & Trimming

Shrubs, hedges, and trees benefit from early spring pruning to promote healthy regrowth. It also helps maintain a neat, professional appearance for your premises.

3. Mulching & Bed Preparation

Fresh mulch helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and gives planting beds a clean finish. Now is the ideal time to tidy up flower beds and apply soil conditioners where needed.

4. Seasonal Planting

Spring is the perfect opportunity to refresh your landscape design with colourful, seasonal plants. From bedding displays to container arrangements, thoughtful planting enhances kerb appeal and employee wellbeing.

5. Irrigation & Drainage Checks

Spring is a good time to test irrigation systems and assess any drainage issues caused by winter rain. Catching problems early prevents water-logging or dry patches in the warmer months ahead.
