"Victor was the most professional company that came to give me a bid. He was the only one who gave me a detailed written estimate. He took the time to completely ck my sprinklers made sure of what exactly needed to be repaired or replaced. Planted new flowers, plants & transplanted for me. All new soil where needed. The price was good. I would have been disappointed with any other company. He's charged me a good price for my monthly service. I will only hire him to do the back 1/2 acre. I highly recommend his service."

"Luis Vela and his crew did a fantastic job. Professional, punctual, polite, kept job site clean, fair pricing, extremely hard working. Luis checked in frequently, to be sure we were satisfied as the work progressed. Especially appreciated that he was true to his word, and did not try to upsell unnecessary services. They built a beautiful, low retaining wall, carefully planted a steep hill, cleaned weeds, revived an irrigation system, and corrected the disaster of a job left behind by a previous contractor. Highly recommend."

"Darvin and his crew did a fantastic job of land clearing of my property for a reasonable price. His crew were out working and got the job done quickly. They cleaned everything up around my property and treated it as if it was their own. I will definitely call on him again."

"I needed my irrigation system updated before the hot weather sets in. I met with Stephen from Scott's Landscaping on Wednesday, May 21st, and discussed what I needed done. Stephen started work on Thursday, the 22nd. He did a phenomenal job, and left the job site very clean. I am very happy with all aspects of the irrigation overhaul. I would definitely recommend Scott's Landscaping and would hire them again in the future."

"Quetzal Landscapes is honestly one of the best companies I’ve had the pleasure of working with. They built a fantastic looking and incredibly strong retaining wall in my backyard. I had a host of companies come out and bid and I’m so happy I ended up going with Quetzal. They were by far the best choice. Every person involved truly cared about the project and it shows in their end product. I will absolutely be calling Kris and Quetzal again the next project I want to do!"

"I received a phone call within minutes of requesting a quote. Mr. Ruiz came out the same day (Sunday). Showed him the problem on the surface. (Which was an irrigation problem) .He had to dig up some dirt and found the issue. After getting the parts to fix the problem, he showed up the next morning and not only did he complete the requested job. He fixed some wires someone else had cut doing another job. I was manually turning on the sprinklers and using the hose to water the grass. He looked at all my sprinkler heads. He set up the timer on the sprinkler system to ensure my system was working perfectly. The PRICE was RIGHT!! I was holding my breath on how much this would cost. After I paid for the services, I went inside and did a happy dance. I have funds left over to order take out for dinner. I also found out that he provides other lawn services like installing artificial turf and retaining walls. I will definitely hire again. I also appreciated that Mr. Ruiz wore a mask during this uneasy time. (Covid-19)"

"What a pleasure to work with a professional. Various conversations about types of sod, decorating, costs and time estimates. Suggested things I would have not thought of, I was going to buy a plant for the corner of the lawn, he said he would pick one up, was perfect. Color and type to do all I wanted. He was on time every morning. Was respectful and friendly with my dogs. I joked with Wes and said that when I came home I walked out front to check the address because the backyard was so BEAUTIFUL. Thank you Wes and Boney's Landscape for an incredible job. You are highly recommended."

"Jacob was very professional. He would update me and let me know when they would be there to start the job and when the job would be completed, they took down both trees I asked for and left my property in good shape. I would definitely hire him again if I had trees to be removed."

Lawn Irrigation FAQs, answered by experts

Overseeding typically involves spreading grass seed either manually or with a machine that sprays the grass seed out and onto the soil. With overseeding, the grass seeds sit on the soil, and some may fall deeper into the soil if you aerated beforehand. With power seeding, a machine cuts narrow rows into the soil and pushes the grass seeds directly into the soil.

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. 

Aerating a lawn before seeding it or adding new grass seed is a smart decision. By loosening up compact soil and allowing it to take in more air and water, your seeds will have an easier time establishing roots and growing. Aerating beforehand also means your seeds will have better contact with the soil, so more of your seeds have a chance to germinate. If you do plan to aerate your lawn before seeding, aerate about two days before you plan to start seeding.

Some grass types grow better than others on hard dirt. For example, hardy grass types like perennial ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass will grow better on tough soil. Keep in mind that you should still consider your area’s climate when deciding on a grass type.

Clover lawns stand up better against dog and cat urine than traditional turfgrass. If your pets love to hang out on the lawn on a sunny day—or if you find yourself with a lot of visiting neighborhood dogs—you could save yourself from yellow and brown patches by making the switch to a clover lawn.
