"Cipriano has been working with us for 7 years on maintaining our yard. He has a wealth of knowledge on plants, flowers, and trees. He landscaped our front and back yards, which included fencing and irrigation and drainage. When dealt with a problem he is able to provide workable ideas to solve it…which he has done several times for us. He has a “good eye” for what works best and a real passion for gardening and landscaping."

"It has been about 5 weeks now and the lawn looks great! Better than we had expected. All of our neighbors saw it looks really good. We would definitely hire again and recommend Conrad and his crew. They worked hard and did an excellent job."

"This is the second review I am writing for RainforestLA in reference to a second job they have just completed for my wife and I. We can now confidently say that our backyard is now the most aesthetically pleasing part of our house, as well as the most enjoyable part in which to spend time, thanks to the beautiful work done by Yosef and his guys at RainforestLA. They produced quality work quickly. As has been our experience, Yosef kept us up-to-date with daily progress reports. Because of our earlier experience with the company, we felt free to trust their suggestions and my wife and I are, once again, extremely grateful to RainforestLA for transforming our backyard into the perfect place to lounge. We plan on hiring them again, and cannot recommend enough."

"mY recent exemplary experience with this company warrants a very strong endorsement. Dealing with Diego Castenada, COO of Dario Landscaping was a rare treat in this era of unreliability and poor performance on representations. He is a very likable gentleman who was punctual, delivered comprehensive proposal in days as promised and proceeded to perform as promised. The job, a walled garden that included street exposure, was completed in the time projected by an excellent professional team and the finished product was exactly what we had in mind. All said, an enjoyable experience with an outstanding result."

"Antonio was professional and personable. My puppy had chewed through the wires that connected the backyard sprinklers to the controller in the garage. Antonio presented a creative solution to install a portable controller for the valves controlling the backyard sprinklers so that we didn’t have to break up concrete to put down new wires to connect to the controller in the garage. He also replaced the backyard valves, fixed a broken irrigation pipe, and replaced a number of broken sprinkler heads. Very pleased with his work."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering whether grass seed will germinate on top of soil, the answer is yes. In fact, it’s the best way to plant your grass seed. Spread seeds in an even layer on top of loose, fertile soil will allow them to germinate and grow strong roots. Topping them with a thin layer of straw will help them retain moisture and stay put, as well as protect them from getting eaten by animals.

If your lawn and general landscape are struggling, consider calling a local landscape specialist to suggest lawn amendments, local plants, and hardscape changes to boost the long-term health of your outdoor space. While you may be able to take on small projects yourself—such as reseeding your lawn or testing the soil—a professional can help you build a plan to bring a struggling yard back to life quickly.

While it’s possible to grow grass seeds by throwing them down, this isn’t the best way to plant them. By amending and prepping the soil beforehand, you’re providing optimal contact between seed and soil for a better chance at germination. If you throw them down without preparing the soil beforehand, seeds are more likely to blow away, get eaten by hungry birds, or never grow.

In most municipalities, lawn care and mowing companies require at least a business license to operate legally. However, requirements can vary by location, and some areas mandate that landscaping companies be licensed, insured, and bonded, or even hold a general contractor license. Before hiring any lawn service, confirm they are fully insured. This protects you from liability for injuries on your property and also protects the company's employees. You can use Angi's state license lookup tool to verify a company's licensing status in your area.

The best hardiness zones for St. Augustine grass are USDA growing zones 8, 9, and 10. However, with a bit of extra attention, it'll also grow well in zones 7, 11, and 12.
