As a handyman, my skills encompass a wide range of tasks related to home maintenance and repair. Key skills include basic plumbing (fixing leaks, unclogging drains), electrical work (replacing outlets, installing light fixtures), carpentry (repairing furniture, building shelves), painting and drywall repair, and general maintenance tasks like cleaning gutters, repairing appliances, and assembling furniture. Over years of DIY projects, I’ve developed a proficiency in using various tools and an understanding of safety procedures are also essential. It’s difficult to find someone to show up on-time with a smile and good work ethic, let alone show up at all. This is why I chose to seek out projects I can help others with who have gone through the same painstaking process many of us have to find reliable help.

Lawns questions, answered by experts

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

No, it's not a good idea to put grass seed directly on top of dead grass. For successful germination and growth, grass seed needs good soil contact. To prepare the area, start by removing the dead grass using a shovel or a sod cutter. Then, loosen the soil, add soil amendments if necessary, and spread the grass seed evenly. This allows the seed to come into direct contact with the soil, promoting better germination and establishing a healthier lawn.

Yes, you can throw seed on a lawn and hope it grows, but taking a few steps beforehand, such as dethatching, aerating, or raking, will give the seed a better chance of germinating. While it sounds like it’ll save time, throwing seed on the lawn without doing anything will require much more seed than any other method.

Before you put down grass seed, you should cultivate your soil or add two inches of topsoil. You should also put down fertilizer at the same time as your seed to prompt healthy growth. Be sure to water after you put down grass seed, especially for the first two weeks.

Post-seeding care involves regular watering, mowing when appropriate, and occasional re-seeding to cover sparse areas.
