"Dean and his crew are the BEST! He was very thoughtful in his landscape design and truly designed a stunning yard for us. Breath-taking flower and plant choices make our backyard an oasis for us to enjoy. Having moved from a house in Newton, Ma with a backyard the size of a postage stamp, I really had very little knowledge about gardens and landscaping. Thank goodness we found Dean. He really cares about the job and made excellent recommendations throughout the whole process. We know that all of the sprinklers and lighting he put in will last for ages because he cares about the work. He is one of a kind- if you are planning on fixing up your yard- he is the one to call!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Many experts say anytime before 10 a.m. is a good time to water grass, but this does depend a bit on the climate conditions where you live. For example, if you live in South Florida and it’s already 95 degrees by 7:30 a.m., it may simply be too hot to effectively water your lawn, regardless of what the time is.

Mowing at least once a week during the growing season is a good general rule. However, every lawn is different, and factors like frequent rain and fertilizer use can cause grass to grow faster, potentially requiring mowing as often as every four days. When you mow, always follow the 'one-third rule': never cut more than one-third of the grass blade's height at once, as this can weaken it and prevent it from taking in proper nutrients. For most grass types, the ideal height is around 2 to 3 inches, though some warm-weather grasses do better when kept shorter at about 1.5 to 2 inches.

Using a pro guarantees correct tools and expertise, preventing potential household mishaps.

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

Depending on the local climate and time of year, you only need to water your lawn by hand once or twice a week. It takes about 25 to 30 minutes with a hose and/or watering can. It doesn't require any electricity or complex irrigation systems and provides some exercise and time outdoors for free. You can also go for longer between waterings during rainy times.
