September Yardwork: Why You Shouldn’t Be the One Doing It

Let’s be honest—September yardwork is the seasonal equivalent of cleaning out your garage. Necessary? Yes. Fun? Not even a little. And while the crisp air and pumpkin-scented optimism might tempt you to play weekend warrior with a rake in hand, I’m here to tell you: don’t.

Because this month isn’t just about leaf piles and lawn envy—it’s about prepping your outdoor space for winter, protecting your investment, and maybe (just maybe) enjoying your weekends for once.

What September Actually Requires

This isn’t just a quick mow-and-go situation. September is the month where smart property owners get ahead of the game. That means:

  • Aerating and overseeding your lawn so it comes back lush in spring

  • Cutting back perennials and shrubs before they go full jungle mode

  • Cleaning up summer debris (hello, dead annuals and rogue mulch)

  • Fertilizing, edging, and prepping irrigation systems for the cold

  • Tackling leaf buildup before it turns into a soggy, moldy mess

And that’s just the basics. If you’ve got flower beds, hardscaping, or outdoor features that need TLC, the list gets longer—and more backbreaking.

Why DIY Isn’t the Move

Sure, you could spend your Saturdays hauling bags of fertilizer and Googling “how to dethatch a lawn without crying.” But why? Your time is valuable. Your back is valuable. And let’s be real—your weekends should be spent sipping cider, not sweating through yard gloves.

Plus, when you hire pros (like us), you’re not just outsourcing the grunt work. You’re getting:

  • Expert eyes on your property’s health and potential problem areas

  • Professional-grade tools and treatments that actually work

  • A team that knows how to time everything perfectly for Utah’s climate

  • Peace of mind that your yard will look sharp now and bounce back beautifully in spring
