FAQs

How often do you cut the grass?

For a Glasgow lawn care business the season can vary significantly from year to year. Most jobs are fortnightly cuts from March to November. The higher quality lawns are cut weekly. The start and end dates are set to suit the weather and growth.

Are the weed killers you use safe for pets?

I use glyphosate on most weeds around hard areas. This is safe once dry, so I would recommend dogs are not allowed to wander onto wet areas of spray. The same applies to selective weed control for lawns and residual (or pre-emergent) weedkillers when used.

 How do you take payment?

Most clients prefer to pay for the year’s services by 12-monthly standing order. Less regular work can be paid for by cash, bank transfer or paypal.

I was going to call a lawn company to scarify the lawn, do you do this?

Dan Frazer Gardening is a specialist lawn care business. I have an in-depth understanding of grass and lawns and supply the full range of lawn care services. I offer a superior quality service compared to national companies. My scarifying service, for example, involves removal of a lot more moss from the lawn, which will always be either put in the green bins, put in a suitable composting spot in larger gardens, or removed for a fee. The main lawn care franchise does not (picture driveways lined with bin bags full of moss and left for the client to deal with!).

As a caring independent Glasgow lawn care service there are NO shortcuts taken, no cheap materials or unsuitable fertilisers used and only professional, well-maintained machinery is used.

Do you need access to an electrical plug when you visit?

No. All professional equipment is petrol-driven.

Do we need to be home when you visit?

No, as long as I have access to the garden I can continue as normal.

How much do you charge per hour?

I give a set price per visit/task and do not charge per hour. Clients appreciate knowing exactly what they will be paying each visit, and they understand that I arrive on site, work hard and use the proper equipment to do an efficient and thorough job. I offer very good value for money and will not sacrifice the quality of work for an early finish.

Do you know a tree surgeon?

I am fully trained and insured to carry out a wide range of smaller tree works, and will happily refer you to trusted experts in anything else.
