Mark's Yard & Home provides professional lawn care for residential properties throughout Nanaimo. Whether you need regular mowing and edging, seasonal fertilizing, spring aeration, or a full-season maintenance plan, we handle it with the same standard every visit.
Nanaimo's wet winters and dry summers create a lawn care cycle that's different from most Canadian markets. Moss thrives in the damp spring, compaction builds through the wet season.
One of the most common mistakes Nanaimo homeowners make is applying fertilizer too early in spring or aerating at the wrong time of year. On Vancouver Island, core aeration is most effective in late spring or early fall.
Moss is endemic in Nanaimo lawns — it thrives in shade, compacted soil, and the damp conditions BC delivers every winter. Regular dethatching, proper mowing height, and correctly timed treatments keep these problems manageable.
A lawn maintained on a regular schedule by someone who knows the property outperforms a lawn that gets sporadic care every time.
Regular mowing at the right height for BC grasses, with clean edging on every visit.
Seasonal fertilizing timed to Nanaimo's growing schedule, plus iron sulfate and lime treatments.
Mechanical core aeration to relieve soil compaction, improve drainage, and allow fertilizer and water to penetrate grass roots.

During the active growing season — roughly April through October — most lawns benefit from mowing every 7 to 14 days depending on growth rate and your preferences.
Late spring (May to June) and early fall (September) are the best windows for core aeration on Vancouver Island.
Moss in Nanaimo lawns is usually a symptom of compaction, low soil pH, shade, or poor drainage. The real fix involves addressing the underlying conditions with aeration, lime application, and overseeding.
A standard visit includes mowing at the appropriate height, edging along beds and hardscapes, and cleanup. Fertilizing, moss treatment, and aeration are scheduled separately.
No — as long as we have access to the yard, we can complete the work and leave a note if there's anything to flag.
