Nurturing Lawns for Hanover’s Unique Environment
Hanover, MA’s residential landscapes face a variety of environmental challenges shaped by the region’s climate and geography. Winters bring salt exposure from road treatments along Main Street and Circuit Street, which can damage turf and ornamental plantings. In the summer, lawns in neighborhoods like Forge Pond Park and Walnut Hill often experience drought stress, requiring careful irrigation and drought-tolerant grass varieties. Shaded lots beneath mature oaks and maples, especially near Luddam’s Ford Park, demand specialized care to prevent moss and thinning grass. Additionally, sloped properties along the North River are prone to soil erosion, making proper ground cover and drainage solutions essential. For more information on local landscaping guidelines and environmental initiatives, visit the Town of Hanover's website.

Top Hanover Lawn Problems (and How We Solve Them)
1. Poor Drainage & Wet Areas:
Many Hanover lawns are prone to soggy spots after heavy rain. We solve this by re-grading, installing French drains, or recommending water-tolerant grass varieties.
2. Soil Compaction & Thin Turf:
Residential development and foot traffic can leave lawns compacted. Our aeration and overseeding services rejuvenate tired lawns for thicker, healthier grass.
3. Shade from Mature Trees:
Areas like Forge Pond and Luddam’s Ford Park have dense tree cover, causing patchy turf. We select shade-tolerant grass mixes and recommend selective pruning.
What Makes Lawns in Hanover Different From the Rest of Massachusetts?
Hanover lawns benefit from a mix of well-drained uplands and low-lying wetlands, requiring a careful balance of soil amendments and moisture management. Unlike sandy coastal towns or denser city yards, Hanover’s properties demand site-specific solutions for drainage, soil health, and sun exposure. We adjust our approach for each neighborhood—whether it’s a shady lot by the river or an open yard on Columbia Road.
