"Tyler from TMD Irrigation Service was prompt, polite and professional. He accurately diagnosed an electrical issue with our sprinkler valves, repaired two leaking valves and got our system working perfectly in less than an hour. He also walked the property looking for any other sprinkler issues and made a couple of helpful suggestions on how to get the most out of our aging sprinkler system. He is intelligent, honest, efficient and affordable. I've worked with a number good of Irrigation/Lawn Sprinkler professionals over the years. Tyler is one of the best."

"I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from John Wilson Landscaping and Gardening. From the very first consultation, John was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about transforming outdoor spaces. He listened carefully to my ideas and offered creative suggestions that truly elevated the final design. The team was punctual, respectful, and worked efficiently throughout the entire project. Every detail—from the lawn to the flower beds and stone pathways—was executed with precision and care. The end result completely exceeded my expectations. My garden looks absolutely stunning now, and I’ve received so many compliments from friends and neighbors. If you’re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and truly dedicated to their craft, I highly recommend John Wilson Landscaping and Gardening. You won’t be disappointed!"

"When we first approached Stevie with the work we needed done and showed him the space that we needed landscaped - he quickly had a clear vision for it. It was his vision that made us so comfortable and quick to give him the job. They continue to maintain the work that they did and to this day the landscaping looks like it did the day the job was completed. The team at Low H2O has been great! They are friendly with our staff members and clients coming in. I will say that they always do a little bit more than is expected of them when doing our maintenance and it is greatly appreciated. With our experience with Low H2O I would trust them with a project any size. You're in good hands."

"Our landscaping in Menlo Park needed a complete refresh. The team replaced thirsty plants with drought-tolerant options that still provide plenty of color and curb appeal. We're using much less water without sacrificing appearance."

Lawn Irrigation FAQs, answered by experts

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

Reseeding your lawn can help eliminate thin or patchy portions of grass. If you’re paying a professional to aerate your lawn, it’ll cost you an additional $50 to $80 on average to reseed it  in the same trip. Reseeding a lawn yourself can cost between $500 to $1,000, meaning you’ll probably save time and money hiring a professional service. 

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.

If you use a starter fertilizer designed for this purpose, you can overseed and fertilize at the same time. If you opt to use a fertilizer for established grass or one with a weed control component, it's best to wait at least four to eight weeks after seed application to allow the new grass to take hold and establish itself. 

No, it's not a good idea to put grass seed directly on top of dead grass. For successful germination and growth, grass seed needs good soil contact. To prepare the area, start by removing the dead grass using a shovel or a sod cutter. Then, loosen the soil, add soil amendments if necessary, and spread the grass seed evenly. This allows the seed to come into direct contact with the soil, promoting better germination and establishing a healthier lawn.
