First question to anyone is what rate lawn have you got?. lets put them into three ratings,
First rate, second rate and worn out lawn,
both these pictures are from a second rate utility lawns, mainly perennial Ryegrass and broad-leaved turf, which is common in the Essex and south east area. Do not confuse this with the first class bent and fescue grass for show lawns.
To prevent your lawn from becoming worn out, as much or if not more care should be shown than you do to your plants in your boarders.
make sure you treat your lawn with a nitrogen rich fertilizer in spring or early summer.
Mow your lawn regularly, not every two weeks, but weekly.
Rake or scarify during spring and again in the Autumn.
Water before the grass goes brown.
Kill weeds with the relevant treatments when they appear
