What You Need To Know About Lawn Care In Currie
Currie climbs from the Water of Leith towards the Pentlands, and plenty of its gardens climb with it. Sloped lawns, river-valley shade in the older parts, and hill-edge weather give grass here a proper workout.
On slopes, water and nutrients migrate downhill and the top of the lawn quietly starves while the bottom stays damp and mossy. We work both problems: aeration and feeding rebuild the thin upper ground, scarifying and drainage-minded care sort the soggy lower edge, and mowing runs that suit the gradient stop the scalping that ruins sloped lawns.
Currie is easy reach off the bypass and shares runs with Balerno, Juniper Green and Colinton. Regular cuts, seasonal treatments or a full renovation, it all starts with us walking the slope and being straight about what will fix it.
What’s Included
Everything Your Lawn Needs
Build the plan around what your lawn actually needs. Most customers are on the regular treatment and maintenance plan; renovations and one-off fixes are priced after a quick look.
Weed & Moss Control
Targeted treatments to tackle common lawn weeds and suppress moss growth, applied at the right points throughout the year.
Scarification
Mechanical removal of thatch and moss buildup that chokes your grass. Essential for any lawn that has gone without treatment for a season or more.
Aeration
Core and spike aeration to relieve compaction, improve drainage, and allow nutrients to reach the root zone more effectively.
Overseeding
Seeding of thin, worn, or bare patches to restore density and give your lawn an even, consistent finish across the whole surface area.
Soil Conditioning
Topdressing and soil treatment to improve the growing environment beneath the surface, tailored to your specific soil type and condition.
Lawn Care advice
Davie’s Advice before you spend a penny
What Davie tells every customer, whether they book us or not. Free to ignore, but he’s usually right.
Mow little and often.
Never take more than a third off in one cut.
Moss is a symptom, not bad luck.
Unless shade and compaction are dealt with, it comes back.
Water deeply and rarely.
A daily sprinkle grows shallow roots.
Don't feed a stressed lawn.
Fertiliser in a drought does more harm than good.
Sharpen your blades.
Blunt ones tear the grass and it browns at the tips. Or let us worry about it.
Autumn is when good lawns are made.
Scarify, aerate and overseed while the soil is still warm.
Got a question these don't cover? Ask Davie. He answers everything himself.

Reviews
What Currie Folk Say About Us
Real reviews from Lawn Care customers around Edinburgh and the Lothians.
We started with a very sad, new-build lawn that had suffered from a winter of neglect. After just a few months on their treatment and maintenance plan, it has completely turned around and looks absolutely great. Davie and the team turn up without fail and nothing is ever too much bother.
PaulGoogle reviewFabulous company, Davie and his team have treated my lawn and I am delighted with the results. I now have a maintenance plan and they regularly treat the grass for a very competitive price and I would thoroughly recommend them.
NicolaGoogle reviewDavid and his team visited us a few weeks ago, from the initial call to talk through what was required I knew this was the company for me! Very informative; helped me understand where I had been going wrong with my grass. DSM Turfing & Lawncare have given my grass a new lease at life, without blowing a hole in my bank balance. Thank you for everything

Lawn CareLawn Care in Archerfield
We did a little repair work on these lovely lawns at Archerfield, near North Berwick, back in March, sorting out the bare, worn patches. They've been on our treatment and maintenance plan ever since and they're improving by the week. Now they're thick, green and taking a proper stripe right across the garden.

Lawn Care in Musselburgh
This might be our favourite turnaround yet. This front lawn in Musselburgh was covered in yellow weeds, with clover coming through. No new turf and no reseeding, just treatments and cutting on our treatment and maintenance plan. Now it's thick, green, clear of weeds and takes a proper stripe. Being on the plan has well and truly paid off.

Lawn Care in Newbattle
Even with these lawns full of moss at the start, we managed to swing them round over the season with regular treatments and cutting. No re-turfing, just the right treatments at the right time and a mower on them all season.

Lawn Care in Currie: the local detail
What Matters Here for Lawn Care in Currie
The gradient
Currie climbs from the Water of Leith towards the Pentlands, and most of its gardens climb too. Sloped lawns are the local speciality: dry and thin at the top, damp and mossy at the foot, and easy to scalp in between.
Working the slope
We treat each band of a sloped lawn on its own terms: feed and seed for the starved high ground, air and moss work for the wet low ground, and mowing patterns that follow the contour instead of fighting it.
The valley trees
The older river-side gardens carry mature trees and their shade. Those lawns get the woodland treatment: harder scarifying, tolerant seed, and autumn clear-ups on time.
Getting started
Currie is minutes off the bypass on our southwest run. A free assessment walks the whole slope before we promise anything, because on a gradient the diagnosis is half the job.
