What about you! Robbie from Premier Lawns -
lawn care company based in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Today we're at a lovely house out in Holywood.
We're doing some aerating, some scarifying
and we're gonna be levelling out
a bit of an area - so stick around!
(The Irish Holywood IS spelt with one "l" ! Hollywood, double "l" is in the USA)

Listen, thanks very much. So. Let's go!
Anyone that follows the Channel, they'll always hear me say
any time I talk about lawn care,
aerating is the number one, best thing you can do for your lawn
so I'll just show you.
We'll take one of these cores here
Take one of these cores
As you see in this lawn, there's very little roots in it.
Over time, your lawn becomes "compacted".
and the roots can't get down.
so, if you don't have good roots in your lawn,
then your lawn can't store a lot of nutrients
If you want a really good lawn, aeration is really key
and it's something you want to be thinking about doing
once a year to your lawn so
let's get back to it.
Daniel 's just done the aerating
I'm gonna come along and do the scarifying.
We'll lift all that up. There's a couple of areas
on it that have got some hollows in it
so we're gonna put some soil in those.
So as you can see
there's a bit of a hole in underneath that.
Sometimes we'd consider digging that out
but I think on this occasion I'm just going to put a lot of soil in there
and then put a load of seed over the top of it.
Right guys. So as you can see, we've started our second pass
so we'll go one way and then we'll go the other.
The tighter you bring the lines together
the less you take out.
Right guys, so we've scarified the lawn once
and now I'm going to show you why we go across it again.
though we have taken quite a bit out.
But as you can see there's still quite a bit of
there's still quite a bit of moss and stuff through that.
So as I was explaining a minute ago whenever we go in lines, like that,
the closer you take the line
then the less harsh you are on the turf.
So because there's quite a bit of moss left in this
and it's going that way, I'm now going to go across it
that way. And as I say that takes the most out.
So we'll do it again and then we'll see if it needs redone after that.
Premier Lawns have been working on my garden for the last year or so,
and I've always found them to be very reliable
always prompt, whenever they say they're coming
they always come and do a very good job
and they're very reasonably priced.
I couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Right guys, welcome back.
Ah, we didn't have time to do this yesterday or space in the van so
we have these humps, ah we have these hollows
in the lawn, where I showed you, yesterday when we put the rake across.
So I have my topsoil, we're just going to fill theses areas in.
Now sometimes I might dig this out
but I think just because they are fairly deep there
I think we'll get away with just throwing the soil in
and standing it down.
Ok so, Daniel and I are just back
standing this in, making sure it's professional, well down in,
We're going to give it a final rake off
and then I'm gonna seed it.
So, we have our grass seed.
There's a lot of Fescues and Ryes in here.
Shade.
Right guys - I hope you've enjoyed this here
renovating this lawn
doing a bit of top dressing, over seeding.
