One tired lawn, one owner who couldn’t leave it alone.
Mr Lawn started with Denton’s own lawn. After moving to the Leatherhead area and leaving corporate life behind, he grew so frustrated with his patchy, moss-ridden grass — and the off-the-shelf products that never fixed it — that he trained professionally in lawn care and the safe use of pesticides and spraying equipment.
Today Mr Lawn is Denton — owner-operated, deliberately independent, and drawing on more than twenty years of lawn care experience. We diagnose what’s actually wrong with a lawn — moss, weeds, compaction, drought stress, disease — then treat it season by season until it comes back. Customers stay for years, and 49 of them have left us a five-star review.
Our promise
The 100% Satisfaction Guarantee
We stand behind our work 100%. If something isn’t right, we come back and put it right — no contracts to sign, no commitment, no fuss. We can say that because we diagnose before we treat, so we know what your lawn needs before we start.
100%
behind our work — if it's not right, we put it right
Start with the symptom
What's wrong with your lawn?
Don't know your scarification from your aeration? Start with what you can actually see. Pick the problem that looks like yours and we'll tell you what's causing it — and how we fix it.
What we do
Everything a lawn needs, in one team.
01
Seasonal Lawn Treatments
Four named seasonal visits — Spring Starter, Summer Guard, Autumn Reset, Winter Protect — that feed and protect your lawn all year.
02
Weed Control
Targeted, professionally applied treatments for the broadleaf weeds that off-the-shelf products leave behind.
03
Moss Control & Removal
Killing off the moss, raking out the dead growth, and fixing the shade, compaction and drainage that let it take hold.
04
Scarification
Raking out the dead thatch and moss that suffocate a lawn, so air, water and feed can reach the roots.
05
Aeration & Spiking
Relieving compacted soil — solid or hollow tine — so roots can breathe, drain and grow deeper.
06
Overseeding, Seeding & Hydroseeding
Fresh, mixed grass seed to thicken thin lawns and fill bare patches — including hydroseeding for large or uneven areas.
07
Lawn Renovations
A full rescue plan for lawns that are too far gone for a single treatment.
08
Fertilisation & Feeding
The right feed, at the right rate, at the right time of year — for deep colour and strong growth.
09
Lawn Pest Control
Leatherjackets, chafer grubs, moles, ants and the birds they attract — treated at the right time of year.
10
Lawn Disease & Patch Treatment
Diagnosing and treating red thread, fungus and mould, dry patch, brown/yellow patches and dog-wee burn.

Why independent matters
A small local team, not a national franchise.
Treatments matched to your soil
No head-office product mandates. We choose what to apply based on your soil, grass and problem — not a national spec sheet.
The same person every visit
It's Denton — owner-operated, not a rotating pool of technicians who've never seen your lawn. No contracts, no fuss, just the same trusted face each time.
Qualified in safe pesticide use
Fully qualified in the safe use of pesticides and spraying equipment, so we can use professional products applied at the correct rate.
We diagnose before we treat
Every lawn starts with a survey. We find the real cause — moss, compaction, disease, drought — before spending your money.
A report after every visit
Reminders before, a written note after — what we did and what to expect next. One reviewer specifically loves the reminders.
Customers who stay for years
18 months and counting for some, restored lawns holding up through wet winters and dry summers. Five stars, 49 times over.
In their words
“This small local lawn care company has managed to restore our lawn to its former beauty after a very dry summer and previous aggressive treatment which left numerous brown and dead areas. We have full confidence in Lewis and Denton's approach to restoring and maintaining our lawn.”
★★★★★ — Jacquie Chalmers, via Google
“We've been using these guys for over 18mths now and they've transformed our lawn. Denton & Lewis super helpful and would definitely recommend them if you're looking to revitalise your garden. Still looking good even after such a wet January.”
“Excellent service. Lawn that was ruined by house renovations is now lush and green. I get reminders when treatment is due. Lew is helpful and very knowledgeable. Lawn has survived last summer's drought and this winters constant rain and still looks good.”
“Mr Lawn visited in April — the before and after photos tell it all. I'm delighted with the result.”
“Really good early results from the Mr Lawn team on a lawn that needed a lot of help.”
