"I highly recommend Glacier Irrigation, as Sam and his team have done an exceptional job installing a new sprinkler system on my extensive property spanning over 2 acres. The high-efficiency system they implemented ensures complete coverage and significantly reduces water consumption compared to my previous setup. Moreover, in addition to the sprinklers for the lawn, they expertly installed drip lines for both vegetable and non-vegetable plants. The project was executed professionally, adhering to the agreed schedule and budget. I wholeheartedly endorse Glacier Irrigation for its outstanding work."

"Great Lawns did an excellent job on my sprinkler repair job. David came out to view the problem, diagnosed the problem and gave me a quote to do the repair. I hired Great lawns and set a date for them to come out and do the repair. David and a helper showed up on the agreed on date and proceeded to do the work, it was a pleasure to watch them do the work, yes I watched them every step of the way. They expertly repaired the leak, it was a leaking main valve to my sprinkler system, which was 6 feet underground where it connected to my homes main water line. David made the repairs, tested everything and filled in the hole, which was 5 feet by 5 feet by 6 feet deep. It was amazing to watch an expert work. I would hire David and Great Lawns again in a New York minute, the work was excellent and the cost was very fair. A job very well done!"

Lawn Irrigation FAQs, answered by experts

Unfortunately, no. Grass seeds need a lot of moisture until they become sprouts, so this is an especially sensitive time. While they'll dry out if they get dehydrated, over-watering creates other problems. The grass seeds don't recover because they can just wash away or even rot, making for low germination rates. The ones that do germinate after being pushed under the soil may start to sprout only to die from lack of sunlight.

Whether you’re putting down fresh seed or reseeding, there are a few things to keep in mind when seeding your lawn. Be sure to choose the correct seed for your climate, seed at the right time of year, and water two to three times a day for the first week. Generally, Dudley recommends seeding in spring and fall as it is usually cooler and rainier.

If you spray a DIY vinegar solution that contains high salt, it can disrupt the soil's structure and make it difficult for plants to grow. That's why it's vital to avoid spraying vinegar solution on areas where you are trying to grow plants and flowers. When using a mix of vinegar and soap, some say you can plant a few days after the vinegar dries. 

If it’s been a few weeks and you haven’t seen anything pop up, double-check your seed packet and make sure you didn’t miss any steps. Did they need cold stratification (putting seeds in the freezer and then transferring to water before planting)? Do they have an exceptionally long germination period? 

 If you’ve followed all of the directions closely, you may just have had a bad batch of seeds. (Sadly, it happens.)

If maintained correctly, natural grass should last between five and 15 years, or up to several decades, depending on your home’s climate conditions. You can extend your grass’ lifespan by treating it well, including regular mowing, weeding, watering, and preventative pest control. Consider hiring a local lawn care service to provide everything your grass needs to live a long, healthy life.
