"After a huge sinkhole appeared in my front yard, I struggled to find someone capable of permanently fixing the problem. That was before I was introduced to Ken. He was immediately able to devise a plan to repair the damage and install a drainage system that permanently re-routed water flow. He and his team worked quickly over two days to clean the area, install the drain, add rock to the surrounding area, replant displaced plants and make the whole thing look amazing. All of this for a very reasonable cost. Ken is an absolute pleasure to work with, I plan on using his services again in the future and would recommend to everyone."

"Shane was amazing! He was thorough and really did a great job on the project - which was not easy! We had a lot of unexpected things happen - remodeling an older house and things that were not in Shane's control - and he handled each challenge professionally and reasonably! I really enjoyed working with him and will continue to use his services for other projects!"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Buffalo grass is not a dense grass, so weeds can grow between the buffalo grass plants. However, as long as you don’t overwater your lawn, weeds have a hard time growing. If you do notice weeds, you can use granular herbicides that are safe for buffalo grass in early and late summer.

Adding vinegar to your lawn increases the acidity of the area, which can kill quack grass present above the ground. However, putting vinegar in your yard will also kill the grass. Unfortunately, the below-ground quack grass rhizomes remain very much alive in the presence of vinegar and will soon sprout again.

Water the lawn thoroughly, apply fertilizer, and overseed if necessary to promote healthy growth.

Purchase a selective herbicide that targets clover and similar weeds but doesn't take out your grass. You can also keep it from growing with corn meal gluten or remove clover from your lawn manually at the start of the season as part of your lawn maintenance checklist.

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.
