Top Dressing
Top Dressing is the ultimate solution and can turn the worst lawn into the best lawn. This not only levels the lawn but also improves soil condition. This organic lawn care process is achieved by top-dressing the turf area with organic substances such as compost, topsoil, humus, just to mention a few. Dreamscapes' Top Dressing solutions will increase nutrient uptake of the plants, balance the moisture content of the soil, alleviate compaction, enhance root development, and reduce sports injuries on playing surfaces for humans.
Top-dressing will also aid in reducing animal lameness in horses and racing dogs. Aeration will help to oxygenate the soil. The process of top-dressing a lawn can also help with leveling, repairing turf and lawn areas.
The procedures of top-dressing aim to improve and repair the soil and turf the natural way.

The environmental impact of using whenever possible organic materials (such as humus and compost) is tremendous. Take into consideration that composts and humus consist mostly of leaves, and other garden materials.
