"We had a total of 4 bids from different local licensed landscape contractors. The first thing that attracted us to Elliot's Sprinklers and Landscape was their presentation of their estimated bid proposal for our backyard. Mike Elliot himself emailed me in 48 hours and had a 5 page written estimate with each category highlighted in complete detail. Every aspect from design, square footage and materials being used were priced accordingly. You know they took the time and research to make sure that everything is valued accordingly. Most bids we receive from other landscape contractors were just 1 page and only showed the approximate cost. Elliot's Sprinkler and Landscape are also big in water conservation which was also a big plus for me considering California's current drought crisis.
Mike Elliot worked with the design I had in mind and had many helpful recommendations which I would never have thought of doing. He made the necessary adjustments to stay within my budget. His team of professionals who is led by Jon were all courteous, hardworking and answered all of my questions and made sure I have full understanding how each element works in my backyard. All materials used were top quality. The irrigation system used were all water efficient or has water saving features. Workmanship was nothing but excellent, Mike Elliot sets a high standard and has a keen attention to detail where minor imperfections such as a drip system tubing showing above ground will be corrected. The trees and shrubs that were planted in my backyard not only had good variation but also served a purpose. 
One of the most important aspects of backyard landscape that usually gets overlooked at is it's drainage system. A backyard won't function well and can create problems if water can't exit out in the front. When he had some heavy rain a couple of weekends ago, excess rain water were all directed and collected to the 4 drains they had installed. This means that they had planned and graded my soil appropriately where no water will remain stagnant. They even placed 2 drains on my concrete patio.
Elliot's Sprinkler and Landscape stands behind their work and offers 1 year warranty. Dealing with this company is money well spent.

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

As a beginner, start by mowing your lawn in symmetrical rows by turning the mower at the end of each row and overlapping with the previous row. Use an edging tool or weedwacker to make your lawn look sharp and crisp around the edges, and then sweep the debris back into the yard. Take it slow, and know that you can adjust your approach or pattern the next time your grass needs a clip.

You should not water your lawn every day, even in hot weather. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. It is best to water during a drought or when temperatures are high, but avoid watering in the middle of the day or if the temperature exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit. The extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.) when the temperature is cooler.

Signs of an overwatered lawn can be visual, physical, or related to pests and weeds. Visually, the grass may appear yellow, wilted, patchy, or thin instead of green and lush. You might also notice the presence of mushrooms, other fungal growths, or an increase in weeds like crabgrass. Physically, the soil may be waterlogged, soggy, and perpetually damp. An overwatered lawn often feels mushy or makes a squishing sound underfoot, even several hours after watering. Additionally, you may see an increase in pests such as grubs. To prevent overwatering, ensure your lawn has proper drainage through periodic aeration and adjust your watering schedule to meet its actual needs.

If the grass is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. However, you can grow new grass in its place or try the methods mentioned above to revive the grass if it isn’t entirely dead. You can expect St. Augustine grass to come back after moderate droughts, but it will suffer significant nutrient loss after an extended period of drought.

Yes, watering after you level a lawn is essential. Water helps settle the soil, eliminating air pockets and encouraging the newly-applied topdressing to bond with the existing surface. Adequate watering aids in achieving a smoother and more even lawn surface. However, be sure to avoid overwatering, which could lead to soil erosion or compaction issues.
