An Unexpected Blizzard

Surprise Snow Day? Here’s What to Do About Your Lawn Care Service

Just when you thought spring had arrived, Mother Nature throws a curveball—a surprise snow day! If you’ve already scheduled lawn care services, you might be wondering what to do next.

Should You Pause Lawn Care Services?

Absolutely. Snow-covered grass isn’t ideal for mowing, aeration, or fertilization. Walking or working on frozen turf can cause damage, leading to dead patches and compacted soil. Most professional lawn care companies will automatically reschedule services when unexpected snow falls, but it’s always a good idea to check in and confirm.

What Happens Next?

  • Wait for the thaw – Once the snow melts and the ground dries, lawn care can resume as normal.
  • Adjust your schedule – If treatments like fertilization or pre-emergent weed control were planned, your provider may need to tweak the timing for best results.
  • Keep debris in check – Snow can bring down branches or scatter leaves. A quick cleanup once the snow melts will help keep your lawn healthy.

Final Thought

A little patience goes a long way when the weather is unpredictable. If a snow day delays your lawn care service, rest assured it’s a temporary setback. Soon enough, your lawn will be back on track for a lush, green season ahead!
