"While on vacation a pipe ruptured which sent a substantial amount of sooty water under our home slab and flooded our house. After the restoration company trenched the water main and irrigation pipes we identified a break in the main water line as the culprit. We had several companies come out and seeing our predicament tried to gouge us. On a whim I filled out a request on Home Advisor. Shortly after I received a call from Raul Jr Fernandez fron New Horizon Landscapping. To make a long story short, we agreed on a time for him to come out and confirm the scope of work and the effort needed. Raul arrived on time and was professional. Since the irrigation piping was uncovered, in addition to the broken water main pipe, I asked if he could replace my old irrigation controllers, some of the old irrigation pipes and sprinkler heads. Also install a shut off valve for the irrigation system where it tees of from the main water line. Raul provided an estimate that was more affordable than I was expecting. He arrived 2 days later as agreed upon on time. He completed the job in a timely manner, job site was clean and the work meet or exceeded expectations. Raul even did a few extra fixes with out charging me. The bill was exactly what he estimated and more affordable than other estimates I received over the phone. Raul was friendly, professional and kept the work site neat. I Definitely recommend Raul and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to rehire New Horizons Landscapping."

"Mike is amazing. He came by to give my husband and me an estimate and, a few days later, he was over to install our irrigation system at a very reasonable rate. He arrived right on time, both times. He was highly professional and knowledgeable, sharing his expertise by offering invaluable advice for our backyard project. He was a pleasure to do business with, and we highly recommend his services. Thank you, Tobyn and Nathalie! :)"

Lawn Irrigation 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. 

First, you should figure out whether you have dormant or dead grass. Dead grass won’t come back, so you’ll have to reseed if you’re hoping for a lush lawn. However, grass can go dormant if it hasn’t received enough water or if temperatures are too cold. If it’s still decently warm outside, you can revive dormant grass by watering it. But if it’s mid-January in New England, for example, you’ll need to wait until the weather warms up again. If you want to keep grass green in winter, consider a grass like Kentucky bluegrass, which maintains its color year-round.

Even the most shade-tolerant turf grass needs at least three or four hours of full sunlight or a good amount of partial sunlight throughout the day. You might want to look at other gardening options for full shade, like plants that can survive in full shade, hardscaping, or structural architecture, to still get that yard of your dreams without compromising on your landscaping design. 

Because it’s native to the central United States and Canada and is drought-tolerant, it typically is not difficult to grow. It requires very little maintenance and minimal watering beyond rainfall. Its hardy nature and unique look make it a favorite choice among people living in the western United States and other dry regions of the country. 

Post-dethatching, lawn recovery includes watering, fertilizing, and reseeding as necessary to restore health and promote growth.
