1) Clear Winter Debris
Remove fallen branches, leaves, and storm residue from lawn and planting areas. Clearing debris early improves turf recovery and reduces moisture-related disease pressure.
2) Inspect Turf Health and Drainage
Check for snow mold patches, compaction, and pooling water. Drainage issues should be corrected before fertilization and reseeding so spring growth is not delayed.
3) Refresh Beds and Edges
Recut bed lines, remove dead plant material, and top off mulch where coverage thinned over winter. Clean, defined bed edges immediately improve curb appeal.
4) Schedule Early-Season Maintenance
Establish mowing, pruning, and fertilization timing based on property use and budget. Commercial sites and HOA properties typically benefit from a fixed service calendar.
5) Plan Repairs and Improvements
Identify cracked concrete, uneven hardscape surfaces, and planting areas due for renovation. Tackling repairs in spring prevents larger mid-season disruptions.
