The Ultimate Lawn Care Schedule for Canadian Seasons
Canada’s climate can be as beautiful as it is unpredictable—which means your lawn care routine needs to be just as flexible. From snowy winters to vibrant springs, each season brings unique challenges and opportunities for keeping your lawn healthy, lush, and green.
In this guide, we’ve created the ultimate lawn care schedule tailored for Canadian seasons, helping homeowners like you maintain a thriving yard all year round.
Spring: Time to Wake Up Your Lawn
After months of snow and ice, your lawn is ready to come back to life. Spring is all about cleanup and preparation.
What to do:
- Rake and dethatch to remove dead grass and debris
- Aerate the soil to improve water and nutrient absorption
- Apply fertilizer with high nitrogen content to encourage growth
- Overseed patchy areas for a fuller lawn
- Inspect for pests or mold damage

Summer: Keep It Thriving
Warm temperatures and occasional drought conditions make summer a crucial time for ongoing care.
What to do:
- Water early in the morning (1–1.5 inches per week)
- Mow regularly, but avoid cutting more than one-third of the blade
- Edge garden beds for a clean, maintained look
- Watch for weeds, pests, or fungus
- Apply a slow-release fertilizer if needed
For consistent care, our Lawn & Garden Services are perfect for keeping your yard vibrant during the summer heat.
Fall: Prep for the Frost
Fall is about repairing summer stress and preparing your lawn for winter hibernation.
What to do:
- Rake fallen leaves to prevent suffocation and disease
- Fertilize with potassium-rich mix to strengthen roots
- Aerate and overseed to improve thickness
- Cut the grass shorter for the last mow of the season
- Winterize sprinkler systems and garden beds
Let Groundscape Solutions take care of your fall chores with professional cleanup services that get your lawn ready for the colder months.
Winter: Protect & Plan
Though your grass is dormant, winter is a good time to protect your investment and plan for spring.
What to do:
- Avoid walking on frozen grass to prevent damage
- Shovel carefully to avoid tearing up lawn edges
- Plan your spring landscaping projects
- Schedule early for lawn services to beat the rush
We also offer snow removal and other winter property services to keep your outdoor areas safe and clean throughout the season.
