Hydroseeding in Frankston

Sandy heathland to the east

Frankston is the gateway to the Peninsula, and much of the ground around Langwarrin and Carrum Downs is sandy, former heathland.

Sandy soil drains quickly and holds few nutrients, so a new lawn needs help holding moisture in its first few weeks.

What we recommend for Frankston yards

• Organic matter and a moisture-holding mulch on sandy blocks
• Extra tackifier on sloping Frankston South blocks
• Clay prep and topsoil on newer estates in Carrum Downs
• A watering plan with shorter, more frequent sessions on sand

Frankston South's hills

Frankston South rises into steeper, leafier streets with views over the bay. On sloping blocks we add extra mulch and tackifier so seed stays put, and shape the soil so water drains evenly rather than rushing down to the fence.
