Moss usually appears as coarse, loose green or yellow tufts between the grass. It provides the grass with a very uneven colour and surface and makes the ground feel very spongy to walk on.
It actively competes against grass for growing space and depending on conditions it may well win which will leave your lawn with brown dead patches when it dies off in the summer. 
Some of the causes of the problem are mowing too close and mowing infrequently as well as poor drainage and shady areas. 
Once the moss has been removed, the lawn will need some help to recover. Aeration and fertilisation with some overseeding will keep the moss at bay and provide the lush green lawn you want. 
The green waste which is removed from the garden normally goes for composting but the moss is spread in the wood as it is ideal nesting material for birds.

Although stripes on the lawn aren’t necessary...…they do look good. Striping the lawn comes as standard with the annual mowing and lawn care package we offer.
One of the next services this lawn will receive is an aeration in April.  As well as relieving compaction, aeration also allows air, rain and nutrients to penetrate a hard surface, improves bacterial activity and helps reduce thatch. It also improves drainage from the surface, increases the water holding capacity and therefore stimulates rooting and root depth giving a more drought tolerant lawn.

The field maple, Acer campestre, is Britain’s only native species of maple. Normally found in woods or countryside hedgerows it can live up to 350 years. In a couple of years these sticks will become a thick field maple hedge round a domestic garden. It is not your usual garden hedge choice, but it is fairly quick growing and the colour changes of the leaves are amazing. Valuable for wildlife the field maple will bring plenty of aphids and their predators including ladybirds, hoverfly and birds and the flowers will provide nectar for bees.

​Now is the best time to get a deciduous hedge planted round your garden. One option is a Beech hedge (Fagus sylvatica). A very popular, relatively fast growing, deciduous hedge with delicate leaves, initially a soft golden green, turning bright green and finally coppery brown in the winter. The leaves are retained on the plant until they are pushed off by the new growth in the spring.
