The Best Yard Upkeep Tasks to Do in the Summer

In between time at the lake and pool, don’t forget to tend to your own outdoor oasis!

Let’s face it. Sticky summer weather is not ideal for doing yardwork. However, if you plan to hire someone… there are a few summer yard upkeep tasks you may want to add to your list.

While you sit back in the air conditioning or relax by the water, many outdoor maintenance companies have extra space in their schedule mid-summer (July and August) as grass dries up and mowing isn’t needed as often. This means you can typically get on the books fast.

So, take advantage of the extra time in the Services By Bright schedule and consider booking these summer yard upkeep tasks in July or August! 

Landscape Bed Maintenance

Keep your flower and landscaping beds in tip-top shape throughout the summer. First, make sure you pull those pesky weeds to ensure your blooms can thrive. 

Next, refresh your mulch. In addition to giving your yard a serious hit of curb appeal thanks to fresh mulch, you’ll be discouraging new weed growth and helping your soil retain moisture. 

Skip the hours on your hands and knees for this tedious work and hire Services By Bright to complete any of these services! 

Good to Know: If you need new mulch, Services By Bright can do that too!

Trimming

When foliage gets unruly, a simple trim is all it takes to restore it to its former glory. Hire Services By Bright to trim your shrubs, hedges, and small trees.

Manicured flora is key to keeping your home looking put-together when the leaves are green and the flowers are blooming.

Brush Clearing

If you have any brush crowding your yard, say goodbye to the visual clutter and clear it out!

This can be a hefty undertaking, but don’t sweat it. Services By Bright is at your ready to take care of this pesky task. Request a quote to get the process started.

Landscape Lighting

Finally, summer is a great time to add some landscape lighting to your yard. Make the evenings more enjoyable with a soft glow that highlights your home and landscaping in all the right places.

Additionally, it may come as a surprise, but summer is a great time to install JellyFish permanent lighting on your home.
