Grass cutting in Exmouth.
Regular cuts across Exmouth, cut at a height that suits light coastal ground rather than scalping it.
Grass cutting in Exmouth
Exmouth soil is light, sandy and free-draining, which changes how the grass behaves. It greens up early and it browns off fast. A dry fortnight in July does more visible damage here than the same fortnight on heavier ground inland.
The practical answer is cutting height rather than frequency. Taking less off through the dry months keeps a bit of shade on the roots and the lawn holds colour far better than one cut short. We would rather do that than sell you a weekly cut that makes it worse.
Family gardens up through Withycombe and Littleham are straightforward regular-round work. The exposed seafront and Maer Road side is where the wind matters more than the mowing.
Common questions
Grass cutting in Exmouth: common questions.
Why does my Exmouth lawn go brown every summer?
Sandy, free-draining soil holds very little water. Cutting higher through the dry months helps more than anything else, and it recovers on its own once the rain comes back.
Do you cover Lympstone and Budleigh?
Lympstone and Littleham yes, Budleigh Salterton is on the edge of the patch, worth asking.
Can I have a weekly cut?
You can, though on this ground fortnightly plus the right cutting height usually looks better through summer. We will say so rather than take the extra visits.
