"Pierce Shallis Landscaping re-did our back yard and put in a curtain drain along our new deck. The backyard job consisted of filling in a dip in the yard with several cubic yards of topsoil and regrading it, and planting new grass. I was a somewhat “picky” customer. I asked Mr. Shallis and company to do the job in two stages, putting down the topsoil first and then planting the grass after I’d had a chance to kill any weeds that had sprouted from seeds in the topsoil. I wanted them to use salt hay rather than field straw as a mulch/covering, and to use a grass-seed mix I’d selected. (I ordered and paid for the salt hay and grass seed.) Mr. Shallis was very helpful and accommodated my requests cheerfully. His crew worked together well and efficiently; he was involved in some of the work himself, and is obviously respected and liked by his employees. The crew was unfailingly cheerful, good-humored, and respectful. I very much enjoyed having them work on the property. The work was done very efficiently and very well. Mr. Shallis regularly checked with me to see that I was pleased. He made recommendations for follow-up care on our new lawn. I felt that the price for the work we had done was reasonable considering its high quality. I plan to ask Mr. Shallis to work on our property again, and recommend him to others with confidence and enthusiasm."

"Our lawn had not been cut in several weeks, and I needed someone for a one-time job. They were able to come by on two days' notice and did a great job. If I ever need a weekly lawn care service, I'd call them first."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Lawn mower blades should be sharp enough that you can feel the sharpened edge, but not sharp enough to cut you when you touch them. Over-sharpening blades to a fine, razor-edge poses a safety risk and decreases the blade's life because it causes extra wear; the thinner edge is sharper but weaker and will require more frequent sharpening.

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.

Yes, it’s acceptable to water the lawn in very hot weather, but you should try to water between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. for best results. However, watering when the temperature is above 95 degrees is ineffective. If you’re concerned about whether to water your lawn during extreme heat, consult a local lawn care professional who can recommend a watering schedule based on your grass type and climate.

Chiggers thrive in overgrown lawns, so regular mowing will deter these annoying mites. It may not remove every single chigger, however, so follow that up with weeding and trimming any nearby trees and bushes. Pay special attention to moist, shady spots, as these are a chigger’s preferred habitat. When all else fails, sprinkle your yard with diatomaceous earth. It kills chiggers by dehydrating their exoskeletons. Diatomaceous earth is basically ground-up shells, so there’s no risk of injury to animals.

Water your yard a little more deeply after a drought for about two weeks (while still avoiding overwatering). Continue to water in the early morning hours before 10 a.m. You'll also want to invest in some high-quality fertilizer to get more nutrients to your roots and help them grow back stronger and quicker. Look up your grass and soil type, or do a soil test, to see what type of fertilizer you need.
