"This company, Vega Landscape, is amazing! Not only are they professional in every way, but provide a concierge type service that most companies just don't possess in this day and age. We were made to feel that we were not just another client. The job consisted of backyard and front yard sprinkler & timer repairs, and slight changes to the watering system. They were professional, clean, and pricing was fair. Even on a Memorial Day Weekend. Gotta love 'em."

"Juan Lopez did an amazing job on reseeding my back yard lawn, cutting back and treating a huge amount of weeds, laying stone in place of my front lawn, repairing sprinklers and basically revitalizing my garden from a unkempt jungle state. He also took care of a couple of extra things I asked of him during the job at no extra charge, which I really appreciated. Finished the job in the time we agreed and was on the job on the days he said he would be here. . Easy to talk to and work with, gentle natured, and professional. Totally recommended!"

"Rainbow Landscaping did an amazing job on our yard. They put in a new lawn, flower garden, and irrigation. They also cleaned up our side yard by trimming some overgrown ferns and a tree. The plants they choose really compliment the yard and turned it from an embarrassment into a gem. The team was very responsive, listened to my vision, and then executed it beyond what I could picture. Do yourself a favor and call Rainbow for your next landscaping project."

"We're big fans of Hugo! He executed designs we had drawn up to turn our front yard into a zeroscaped area and build a fence. He came in with the lowest offer and we were a little skeptical but he and his team executed the work well and quickly. He was also willing to give us advise about sticky issues including how to save money on aspects of the project and how to make some better choices regarding staining/painting a fence, irrigation, and what kinds of materials to use. I would totally hire Hugo again!"

"5 Star Landscaping really deserves the 5 Star name. They came over right on time and worked non-stop until my sprinkler regulator was installed and programmed. They checked all the sprinkler heads and replaced as necessary and even changed a broken pipe and cut the root that had damaged the pipe. An overall great experience. I will not hesitate to recommend them and call on them again."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's common for lawns to look bare after dethatching. Dethatching brings soil to the surface to create a "bald" look on your lawn. While you may choose to patch or reseed your lawn if bare patches seem excessive, it's normal for a lawn to look bare after dethatching. With the layer of debris that was blocking water, nutrients, and air from reaching your grass now gone, your lawn is likely to grow better than ever.

While it may seem easier and faster to throw grass seed onto dirt and call it a day, that method likely won’t yield great results. Preparing your lawn for reseeding or seeding by clearing rocks and debris, aerating, removing existing grass, or leveling it. You should also plan out the best time to plant your grass based on its type and your location to ensure it grows well. So, if you want your grass to grow successfully, put more time and effort into the project than throwing seed on the ground.

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.

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

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.
