While San Antonio doesn't experience a dramatic fall like more northern climates, there are still important landscaping tasks to undertake to prepare your outdoor spaces for the cooler months and ensure a healthy and vibrant yard next spring.
Leaf Management:
While not as intense as in other areas, fallen leaves can still smother your lawn and harbor pests. Rake or blow leaves regularly.
Gutter Cleaning:
Fall leaves are a primary culprit for clogged gutters. Ensure they are clear to prevent water damage from any unexpected fall or winter rains. (Read more about gutter cleaning benefits.)
Pruning Trees and Shrubs:
Fall is a good time to prune certain trees and shrubs, removing dead or diseased branches and shaping for better growth next season.
Lawn Care:
Continue mowing your lawn as needed. Consider overseeding with cool-season grasses if you want a green lawn throughout the winter.
Winterizing Irrigation Systems:
Protect your sprinkler system from potential freezing temperatures by draining it properly.
Fence and Deck Check-up:
Inspect your fence and deck for any damage from the summer heat or storms. Make necessary repairs before winter. (Our outdoor services include fence and deck repair.)
