"David and his son, David (Great Lawns Landscaping) upgraded a very old distribution box of our irrigation system, which was installed personally by a previous owner, so that it would operate like a brand new system. They took on a job that most irrigation contractors would only shake their heads. Not only did they intelligently determine how to make a tricky repair, but they did it right away at a very reasonable cost. They will be my first choice for irrigation issues in the future. I highly recommend them."

"Glacier Irrigation went above and beyond to install a new 11 head 2 zone irrigation system with a Rachio timer. This was a new instal that required piping ran in the house to the main line. Sam, the owner, used the best available equipment to instal the lines outside so they did not tear up the grass like all other installers would do. He uses high efficient sprinkler heads to get proper coverage without eating into the monthly water bill. Sam has an excellent plumber, Liberty, who he uses to complete any of the plumbing that needs to be done from the house to outside. The best part of Glacier irrigation is the communication you will receive from Sam. So many companies don't answer their calls, but he is responsive and quick to give an appraisal. I will continue to recommend Glacier irrigation to anyone looking for their lawn to come back to life."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

You should not water your lawn every day, even in hot weather. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. It is best to water during a drought or when temperatures are high, but avoid watering in the middle of the day or if the temperature exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit. The extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.) when the temperature is cooler.

Signs of an overwatered lawn can be visual, physical, or related to pests and weeds. Visually, the grass may appear yellow, wilted, patchy, or thin instead of green and lush. You might also notice the presence of mushrooms, other fungal growths, or an increase in weeds like crabgrass. Physically, the soil may be waterlogged, soggy, and perpetually damp. An overwatered lawn often feels mushy or makes a squishing sound underfoot, even several hours after watering. Additionally, you may see an increase in pests such as grubs. To prevent overwatering, ensure your lawn has proper drainage through periodic aeration and adjust your watering schedule to meet its actual needs.

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.

Overwatering won’t just hurt your wallet with the water bill; it’ll impact the longevity of your lawn. 

Too much water on your grass will deprive the root system of oxygen, stunting its growth and even killing it. Stunted root growth means a weak and disconnected root system. That means the lawn is weaker, making it more vulnerable to diseases and drought.

Hiring a professional lawn care service is generally worth the cost, especially if you have limited free time. Lawn care professionals can ensure your lawn receives the vital nutrients it needs to grow and thrive, guaranteeing a healthy, beautiful, and well-maintained yard with professional-looking results. While some homeowners enjoy doing the work themselves, hiring a company frees up your schedule. The decision also depends on your budget and whether you already own the necessary lawn equipment, as doing the maintenance yourself can reduce monthly costs. Additionally, many lawn care companies offer other services like snow and leaf removal to keep your property in top shape year-round.
