Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

Yes, watering after you level a lawn is essential. Water helps settle the soil, eliminating air pockets and encouraging the newly-applied topdressing to bond with the existing surface. Adequate watering aids in achieving a smoother and more even lawn surface. However, be sure to avoid overwatering, which could lead to soil erosion or compaction issues.

DIY is possible for small properties. Professional services ensure consistent quality and proper maintenance for large areas.

St. Augustine grass grows fast thanks to its dense mat-like structure and vigorous root system. If you've laid St. Augustine sod, it'll put down roots, get itself established, and start to spread in 14 days.

If you’re wondering when to mow new grass, you should be able to mow roughly eight weeks after seeding or two to four weeks after laying sod. Wait until grass reaches three to four inches in height. Be sure to check the ideal grass height for your particular type of grass, and never mow more than one-third of the grass height at once.
