Lawn Scarification - Moss & Thatch Control

Scarification: The Key to a Healthier—And Greener—Lawn

Scarification, also known as de-thatching, removes the buildup of thatch, moss, and dead material from your lawn, helping air, water, and nutrients reach the grass roots. Without it, thatch can starve your lawn of essential resources, leading to thinning grass, patchiness, and even disease.

By clearing away this unwanted layer, scarification stimulates new growth—helping lawns in Ilkley, Leeds, Wetherby, and Knaresborough look thicker, greener, and healthier.

What more do you want?

I have been using Lawn Force for about 20yrs. At one time they 'raised' Lawn that had sunk in one area, a couple of years after landscaping had been done. People told me it couldn't be done - but Lawn Force did it and the following year you couldn't 'see the join'! They are a great company who charge a reasonable price and are really good at communication. I would highly recommend them.
