Martin Services' spring cleanup includes leaf and debris removal, garden bed cleanup, the first mow of the season, edge cleanup along hard surfaces, and optional add-on services like dethatching and mulch application. A proper spring cleanup sets the foundation for a healthy, attractive property throughout the entire growing season. After five months of Northern Ontario winter — with heavy snow loads, ice, wind, and freeze-thaw cycles — your property needs systematic attention before the lawn and gardens can take off. Martin Services provides comprehensive spring cleanup services across Powassan, North Bay, and surrounding areas, and every cleanup is tailored to what your specific property needs.
Standard Spring Cleanup Services
Every Martin Services spring cleanup covers the core tasks that Northern Ontario properties need after winter. We start with a thorough removal of leaves, branches, and debris from the entire lawn and all garden bed areas. Leaves that sat under snow all winter mat together and smother grass, creating dead spots if not removed promptly in spring. We rake and clear matted grass areas to promote air circulation and encourage new growth. All garden bed edges along driveways, walkways, patios, and garden borders are cleaned and re-defined. We perform the first mow of the season once the grass has started growing and the ground is firm enough to support mowing equipment without leaving ruts. All debris collected during the cleanup is hauled away — you are not left with piles of leaves and branches on your curb.
Optional Add-On Services
Beyond the standard cleanup, Martin Services offers several add-on services that many North Bay area property owners find valuable in spring. Dethatching removes the layer of dead grass stems and roots that accumulates at the soil surface, opening the lawn to air, water, and nutrients. Garden bed mulch application refreshes the appearance of your beds and provides weed suppression and moisture retention for the season ahead. Garden bed edging creates clean, sharp borders between lawn and garden areas. Shrub and hedge pruning addresses any winter damage and shapes overgrown growth before the active growing season. Lime application corrects soil pH on acidic Northern Ontario soils, improving nutrient availability for your lawn. With 35 years of experience, Martin Services assesses your property during the spring cleanup and recommends any additional services that would benefit your lawn and gardens — without pressure to add services you do not need.
