"Matt and his team did a fantastic job of turning my failed effort to grow grass into a yard my family loves. Im amazed how quickly a yard of dirt has been transformed into a yard with lush green grass, a fully automated sprinkler system and a great area of decomposed granite for a gathering area. Matt was very accommodating in additional requests I had and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. Additionally, Matt has check back on the yard to ensue the new sod has rooted and provided additional fertilizer. His responsiveness after the work has been completed speaks says a lot about him and how he values his business and his customers."

"William installed a new sprinkler system in my front and rear yard. He also seeded the areas needed for new grass, added decorative rocks, and mulch in places we requested. The price for all we had done was lower than expected, and very competitive with other estimates i received from other landscaping companies. He is very professional, and a great person to reach out to if you need landscaping done at your residence. You will not be disappointed with the end result!!!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to mow wet grass, including grass with morning dew. Mowing when wet can damage your lawn, your mower, and potentially cause injury. Wet grass blades are more likely to be torn rather than cut cleanly, which can lead to brown tips and increase the risk of fungal diseases. Additionally, wet clippings can clump together, smothering the grass underneath, and can clog your mower. For best results, wait until the grass is dry to the touch, which is often about two hours after morning dew has evaporated. Regular lawn mower maintenance is also important for a clean cut.

Your St. Augustine grass might look bad due to cold winter months, drought, pest invasion, or lawn disease. The first step is properly identifying the problem. Once you’ve figured out what’s making your grass look bad, you’ll need to employ the correct treatments. These treatments may include:

  • Properly mow your lawn and keep the clippings on the lawn as organic matter.

  • Use healthy irrigation techniques.

  • Use the right amount of fertilizer.

  • Keep up a good, regular maintenance routine.

  • Use fungicides.

Professional lawn care can increase your home’s value, as it beautifies your exterior and improves curb appeal. Potential buyers who pull up to a house that looks neat and clean will get a great first impression, and savvy buyers will know that a well-maintained exterior is probably indicative of proper care for other things, like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. Ultimately, a lawn that’s professionally cared for can boost your home’s appearance and lead buyers to offer more for your house.

There are a few ways to fix your lawn on a budget, including:

  • Identify the lawn care problem and learn how to seed, fertilize, and aerate your lawn. 

  • Reseed old, damaged lawn with new grass that fares better in your environment. 

  • Remove grass from your yard so you no longer need to worry about lawn care costs.

You can mow the grass when it’s dry to the touch, usually between 2 and 5 hours if it was a light rainfall or morning dew. If the rainfall was significant, you may need to wait up to 2 days until the grass is dry. Touch the grass and soil to determine if it’s dry. Be sure to check in shady areas too, as those can take longer to dry out.
