Customers say: Quality work

"Craig and his team stand out in what is a very competitive market. Start to finish I was pleased with Craig's professionalism, insight, patience, and quality of work performed. As you would expect with most large jobs his price per head came down as we expanded into other parts of the lawn and his estimate was the price, no surprises.
I highly recommend The Irrigation Company and I look forward to the opportunity of working with them again in the future.

"Juan installed my sprinkle system today. He was on time, professional, and friendly at a very reasonable price. He provides his cell number in case I have any further questions. He adjusted all the heads and tested everything and made many adjustments. He gave me useful information about my front lawn as well as the back lawn. He kept in contact with me throughout the entire process. Mendez Irrigation does the best work at the fairest price. I would recommend him to everyone that asked me about my new lawn. I will use them again! Great job Juan and Team, thank you"

"Great experience! Someone came out to inspect the system identified the issues immediately. The next day they came back to finish fixing the system and replaced several broken sprinkler heads. Reasonably priced and demonstrated expertise in the irrigation space. Would hire again!"

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Whether or not grass will fill in bare spots itself depends on the type of grass you have. For example, grass with rhizomes (e.g., Bermuda grass) and stolons (e.g., Saint Augustine grass) will naturally fill in bald spots as it spreads laterally. However, clump-forming grasses will not spread. 

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.

If you throw grass seed on bare spots, some may sprout on the soil’s surface. However, the germination rate will diminish over time because the grass will not be rooted correctly. You may not get desired results if you toss grass seed on bare spots without proper lawn maintenance and cultivation.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

Choosing between sod and seed depends on your budget, timeline, and maintenance preferences.

Sod:

  • Pros: Provides an instant, lush lawn and immediate curb appeal. It's more resistant to weeds and erosion, can be installed any time during the growing season, and offers a consistent appearance.

  • Cons: Has a higher upfront cost, typically $0.90 to $1.80 more per square foot than seed. It offers fewer grass varieties and must be installed immediately upon delivery.

Seed:

  • Pros: Less expensive upfront, making it a budget-friendly option. It offers a wider variety of grass types and is easier for a DIY installation.

  • Cons: Takes much longer to establish, potentially up to two years for a full lawn. It requires more maintenance, including regular weed control, and is more difficult to cultivate.

Ultimately, if you want a beautiful lawn quickly and have a larger budget, sod is an excellent choice. If you are patient, want to save money, and prefer a wider selection of grass types, seeding may be the better option.
