"Answers to this review are not really fair to the contractor because I have two valve problems to be corrected, a front lawn and a back lawn. The back lawn valve problem has not been completed, has only been confirmed there is a need to replace valves and this contractor is very busy and has not returned for the second valve replacement."

"Amador and Green Touch Lawn Care did a wonderful job on my front yard. It was filled with patches of weeds that were going to turn into foxtails and prickly spikes. They de-weeded/uprooted everything and then carefully tilled my entire front yard and surrounding areas. It is now ready to plant a new lawn and further landscaping. They don’t know this yet but I’m going to see if they can fit me in for another job (tree removal) because they did such a great one the first time. Highly recommend."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

The average cost to seed or reseed a lawn is about $1,100, with prices typically ranging from $450 to $1,700. The final cost depends on factors like your lawn size, the type of seed used, and local labor rates. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $0.10 and $0.20.

Here are some cost estimates based on lawn size:

  • 500 square feet: $50–$100

  • 2,000 square feet: $200–$400

  • 4,000 square feet: $400–$800

  • 5,000 square feet: $500–$1,000

  • 1 acre: $3,000–$5,880

  • 2 acres: $6,000–$11,760

  • 5 acres: $15,000–$17,640

Popular seed types for residential lawns include bahia, fescue, and Bermuda. Compared to installing sod, seeding is generally a less expensive option, especially for larger areas.

Additional services can add to the total cost:

  • Fertilization: $80–$400

  • Soil testing: $700–$2,100

  • Yard cleanup and leaf removal: $200–$560

  • Weed treatment: $110–$325

  • Mowing: $50–$210

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.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.

The best time of year for power seeding depends on your local climate. The soil should be warm, but the air should be cool. If the weather gets too hot after you grow new grass seed, it can die off easily. The best time for power seeding warm-season grasses is late spring to summer, and the best time for power seeding cool-season grasses is in the fall.
