"Derek and his team were great. We did have a mixture of grass used in the yard because we added a section. They had to use a mix in the main part of the yard because they used the Tall Fescue in the added section instead of the main yard."

"Everything went as scheduled from the signing of the contract last September to the installation this spring. Katlyn is very professional and dedicated to getting every detail done perfectly. The gentlemen who did the installation were very knowledgeable and neat in getting the grass returned to its normal condition. Thanks for a job well done. I would definitely recommend Auto Rain to anyone interested in getting a sprinkler system installed."

"The installation of our new home’s sprinkler system in 1990 was flawless. After the installation American National Sprinkler turned our system on in the spring, drained & shut down in the fall, and serviced our system for 30 years. Pricing was always fair. I never felt like they were trying to overcharge. Their service employees were always professional, courteous, and prompt. Customer service was the same and helpful. Our lawn always looked GREAT. Friends, and family always asked why - my response was fertilizing but mostly due to my AMERICAN NATIONAL sprinkler system."

"They are my regular guys. I got them off of Angie's list. It's an ongoing contract, bi weekly in the summer. They do it when I'm not home. They aren't great at returning phone calls. I use them. Don't expect a lot of phone calls from them. I mean its gardening. So basically, everything looks neat and clean. They don't trample on things. I guess attention to detail. They can return phone calls. the thing is, they also provide a snow service. And I asked them about it and I had questions but hey never got back to me to answer my questions. Once you set them up, they do a wonderful job."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

It never hurts to ask a lawn care professional if their prices are negotiable, but generally, they aren’t. However, you might be able to negotiate a deal on bundled services from the same lawn care service. Consider talking to your lawn mowing service provider about discounts on other services, like tree removal, leaf removal, snow removal, or weeding.

The best hardiness zones for St. Augustine grass are USDA growing zones 8, 9, and 10. However, with a bit of extra attention, it'll also grow well in zones 7, 11, and 12.

Carpetgrass is a low-maintenance grass requiring little fertilization that thrives in subprime growing conditions. However, regular mowing is necessary to avoid the growth of unsightly seed stalks, and you may have to water it frequently to prevent drying out the soil. That includes watering the grass over dry winters to help keep it healthy, and it may start dying out in particularly cold climates where it grows poorly. Carpetgrass can also be vulnerable to some types of turf fungus, so it’s important not to overthatch. 

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.

The American ideal of a large, perfectly-manicured lawn is tied to the post-World War II suburban housing boom. In the decades that followed, technological advances made self-propelled mowers more affordable and plentiful. Many Americans came to see reel mowers as old-fashioned, inconvenient, and time-consuming, and they eventually fell out of fashion.
