"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."

"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

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.

Shade-tolerant grass seed still needs between four and six hours of sun to germinate, and many types require a little extra care to thrive. However, it is possible to plant new grass seed in shaded areas when you choose the right variety.

Yes, Bahia grass spreads on its own thanks to its short stolon system. However, it might not seem like your Bahia grass spreads well due to its slow growth. Bahia grass takes around 3 to 4 weeks to germinate and an additional two weeks to grow thicker. 

During this time, fast-growing, competitive weeds may pop up, so weed your lawn to give your Bahia grass a chance to grow. This grass can take up to two years to become established. Once established, Bahia grass typically does well in suitable climates.

Services typically include mowing, edging, trimming, and debris cleanup. Additional options may consist of fertilization and weed control.

Choosing between sod and seed depends on your budget, timeline, and maintenance preferences.

Sod:

  • Pros: Provides an instant, lush lawn and immediate curb appeal. It's more resistant to weeds and erosion, can be installed any time during the growing season, and offers a consistent appearance.

  • Cons: Has a higher upfront cost, typically $0.90 to $1.80 more per square foot than seed. It offers fewer grass varieties and must be installed immediately upon delivery.

Seed:

  • Pros: Less expensive upfront, making it a budget-friendly option. It offers a wider variety of grass types and is easier for a DIY installation.

  • Cons: Takes much longer to establish, potentially up to two years for a full lawn. It requires more maintenance, including regular weed control, and is more difficult to cultivate.

Ultimately, if you want a beautiful lawn quickly and have a larger budget, sod is an excellent choice. If you are patient, want to save money, and prefer a wider selection of grass types, seeding may be the better option.
