"I really can’t say a single bad thing about my irrigation installation experience. Chris came out for the quote and was very knowledgeable, professional and listened to my needs. I asked where heads would go because I was considering some hardscaping in the near future and didn’t want placement to be an issue. He actually recommended a company to me and the two companies worked with each other on my entire backyard makeover The installation crew was meticulous with adjusting the heads and I love the different styles of heads placed around the property. Chris’ communication was awesome from start to finish. The technician programmed my controller for me and the system has worked beautifully. I hydroseeded and began to see grass after just a week with a sprinkler system. The whole experience was seamless and I couldn’t be happier."

"Jose and his whole team did a fantastic job on our back yard project. We had a 90 ft retention wall put in, multiple trees cut down, our entire back yard leveled out, and a sprinkler system installed. His team was always on time, hard working, and cleaned up after themselves. Jose’s team was able to get our project done in less than 3 weeks, and we were very impressed with the quality of their work. They also ended up building us a smaller rock wall that was not originally part of the plan and looks beautiful. I included before and after pictures here, but I can say that the pictures don’t do it justice."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

Properly preparing the soil for planting grass seed may include applying fertilizer several weeks before spreading the seed if you plan to overseed the lawn. However, in most cases involving a brand-new lawn, spreading a starter fertilizer along with the grass seed will give it the best chance of taking root quickly and growing strong.

In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. 

Soaking grass seeds in water before seeding is called pre-germinating. It’s not necessary but can be very helpful in some cases. Some grasses like are very slow to germinate, and basic seeding on the ground is unlikely to be effective—that’s especially true of cool season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass, rye grasses, and Bermuda grass. Soaking these seeds in a bag or bin of water for one to four days beforehand can give the grass the start it needs to survive.

Seeding can be DIY, requiring patience and knowledge of proper preparation and care, to ensure successful lawn establishment.
