"Joe and his team installed grass from scratch in our Carmel Valley home. They took away old dried up grass, re-leveled the area, installed a mesh under the grass to prevent more gophers from making holes, and installed new Marathon. It looks great! Joe and his team were very professional, and completed the work in the time they said they would. Joe cares a lot regarding the quality of the job and has excellent communication. He is both knowledgeable and friendly. When they came in we were still ruffled from a prior difficult experience with a hardscape company, and Joe and his team helped put us to ease. We had a great experience with them and highly recommend Joe and his team to anyone else."

"At the start, Desi did a great job with my yard. Subsequently, he has been very non-communicative and somewhat rude. He has not been very responsive when I have texted him questions. There were issues with some of the work he was doing so I wanted him to come when I was home. I also wanted him to come on a monthly timeframe. After that, he didn't come at all. I have tried reaching him only to be told to send me my address and he would get back to me. He never did. I don't recommend using their services."

"Jay and his team at Greenland did a great job for me! I would highly recommend them! They installed a paver walkway and patio in the backyard, including a border around my grass area.

"This is my second experience with Angi. The first was EXCELLENT. This was the opposite. I hired Romero Landscape to do an initial trim and clean-up of my yard, followed by service every 2-3 weeks. His guys (not the guy I had been corresponding with) finally arrived today (after lots of back and forth and many texts left unanswered) while I was away from home and cut back my jasmine bushes and my raised garden bed (I was clear the raised garden bed was not part of the job). No weed pulling. No tree trimming (I was clear that was the main thing I needed). Clipped two irrigation lines. Made a small effort to clean up. So, I texted saying, "I'm assuming someone is coming back tomorrow to finish the job." I got a bunch of angry aggressive texts and ended up blocking him. Ugh. There's obviously a reason they only have one review. LESSON LEARNED."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won’t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. 

Aeration improves soil health, enhances water and nutrient absorption, and promotes stronger grass roots.

Yes! Aerating your lawn during its dormancy period—usually over winter and early spring—can cause a disturbance that the grass may not easily recover from. Instead, you should aerate your lawn during its peak growth period, usually in the late summer or early fall (though with some variation based on specific grass type).

Throwing grass seed on existing lawn isn’t likely to germinate, grow roots, or become healthy grass. You need to prep the soil, spread fertilizer with your seed, and sow the seed into the soil. Water the seed every day for two weeks to ensure it germinates and grows roots. Be sure to stay off the area and wait to mow until it reaches optimal height.

If your lawn hasn't been aerated in over a year, or the soil is incredibly compacted, do two passes with the aerator. The first pass should follow your mowing pattern and the second one should form a perpendicular angle relative to the first. Stick to 20 to 40 holes per square foot as a rule of thumb.
