"Terrible service. Used them for a few years and they would constantly give me the run around on stuff and would take forever to get in touch with me. Would constantly send me bills with no way to pay them for it and then call me and tell me I was late on paying them. Had several leaks in my lawn irrigation system and tried to have them fix it, only for them to come out four different times and NOT fix it but still charge me for every time they came out. Turned part of my yard into a swamp because of this and had to completely reseed it. Then had them do the shutoff and winterization service last fall, only to find out this spring that they didn’t do it correctly and now part of my system is now busted because of it getting frozen over the winter. I now have to have my back flow regulator section completely replaced because of THEIR laziness and screw ups. DO NOT go with this service for your lawn irrigation needs. You’ll end up spending more money than you should for late, lazy, and careless service."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

When it comes to combatting the effects of soil compaction, core aeration does a far better job for a longer period of time—because it actually removes dirt rather than just pressing holes into it. By taking dirt out from under your lawn, core aeration allows more light, air, water, and nutrients to penetrate into the soil below and help your grass’s roots grow even stronger.

The grass could be dying because it’s overwatered or underwater. Additional issues include over-mowing the lawn, compacted soil, or a fungal disease in the lawn. In many instances, regular maintenance can keep grass from dying.

Try the tool test first. A screwdriver or a similarly long, thin tool will work best, as spades and shovels are too big. If something still seems off despite the screwdriver smoothly going into the soil, look for other signs that you need aeration, like thinning grass, discolored areas, and puddles forming on your lawn after light rain. This indicates poor drainage because of too many areas being compacted.

Don't pick up or dispose of aeration plugs. They will break down by themselves in one or two weeks. Rainfall will speed this up, as will watering the lawn. Mowing helps, but don't mow the grass too soon post-aeration. It's unusual that the plugs would remain after three or four weeks, but mowing and raking will break them down by that point.

Speeding up grass seed germination is possible, but it requires quite a bit of extra work and commitment. Keeping the soil moist is key, but here are a few other tried-and-true methods for growing your new grass as quickly as possible:

  • Mist grass up to eight times per day to keep the soil moist.

  • Purchase a moisture-retaining seed coating for your grass seeds.

  • Amend soil that is compacted or in the wrong pH range.

  • Choose the right grass seed for your area’s climate and soil conditions.

  • Avoid planting on windy days or during periods of extreme rain or drought.
