If winter, pets, or kids have left their mark, a fast-acting patch repair seed is the way to go. These mixes are designed to germinate quickly and fill in bald spots, so the lawn looks even and healthy again in no time.
For lawns that get a lot of foot traffic - think football, barbecues and grandchildren - a hard-wearing seed is a great shout. These mixes are tough, resilient and built to bounce back.
Every garden has those tricky spots - under trees, along fences, or on heavy clay. A specialist mix for shady areas or poor drainage helps Dad get grass growing where it usually struggles. No more excuses for that mossy patch in the corner!
Help him get the timing right. Spring and summer feeds are rich in nitrogen to encourage thick, green growth, while autumn feeds prepare the lawn for colder weather by strengthening the roots and toughening up the turf.
Some fertilisers focus more on long-term grass health. These improve colour, density, and resilience - great for lawns that need a bit of extra love without harsh treatments.
Short on time? An all-in-one product that feeds, kills weeds, and controls moss is a lifesaver. These blends are easy to apply and give visible results fast - perfect for dads who like things done properly, with minimum fuss.

Weeds and moss are the lawn’s biggest enemies - but Dad doesn’t have to go into battle alone. Here’s how to help him win the war:
Designed for lawns, these target broadleaf weeds like dandelions, daisies and clover without harming the grass. Ideal for regular lawn care when weeds start creeping in.
Perfect for paths, patios, gravel, and driveways - anywhere you want a completely clean slate. These kill everything they touch, so best kept away from lawns!
Moss thrives in damp, shady spots and can smother healthy grass. A dedicated moss killer helps clear it out fast - or choose a combination product with feed and weedkiller for a complete tidy-up in one go.

Sometimes it’s not what you use, but how you use it - and the right kit can make lawn care quicker, easier, and much more satisfying.
Handheld SprayersLightweight and easy to use, these are ideal for smaller lawns or for treating specific areas with weedkiller, fertiliser, or even water. Great for precision and quick jobs, without the need to drag out a big kit.
For bigger lawns or more regular applications, a knapsack sprayer is the way to go. Worn like a backpack, they make covering large areas a breeze - especially when applying liquid feeds or moss control products. If Dad’s serious about his lawn, he’ll love the ease and even coverage.
For the lawn-loving dad who likes to know why things grow (or don’t), a soil tester is a brilliant addition. These small tools help check pH levels and nutrient balance, so he knows exactly what the lawn needs. It’s a bit of science that makes a real difference - and he’ll definitely enjoy showing you the results.
