"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.

"After Grasshopper Irrigation turned on our watering system earlier this year, we had some sod laid and I noticed that it appeared that some jet6s were not covering needed areas on our lawn. I scheduled a visit to fix the problems. The customer rep (David) spent time with me watching how each watering jet was working and he identified several issues and then fixed them all. David was very knowledgeable and we ran tests of all jets when he finished his work. Very pleased with his servicing our watering system."

"The workers worked hard and were quite efficient. They did more than I expected. With leaves gone, beds cleared, shrubs trimmed, and mulch, the garden and yard look tremendous. They also put fertilizer on the lawn and gave me instructions when to water it. We have a small yard, and a team of 5 finished the work in 2 hours."

"My yard was nothing but scrub trees, roots, rocks, a badly placed stone wall and old tree stumps - a haven for woodchucks and almost too difficult to mow - coupled with poor drainage and a badly deteriorated front step. The work that Dan, his crew and subcontractors accomplished in just a couple weeks is unbelievable. While always professional, hard working, and "no nonsense" while on the job, they were also always very pleasant and easy to talk to. Dan was personally on site to direct and/or participate in every aspect of the project. They removed several dangerous trees and tree stumps, a truck load of boulders, excavated the woodchuck burrow, replaced the badly deteriorated front step with beautiful bluestone, and regraded and filled the front and side yard areas to resolved serious drainage issues to preserve the home before installing the new lawn and plantings. The end result is a true transformation. Dan is an artist when it comes to landscape design, from selection and placement of each plant set off by gorgeous stones, an outer farmer's wall to define the front line, beautiful new trees, and a flower garden that is a balm to my soul. He was sensitive to relocate and use existing plants that had special meaning to me. He is responsive to my questions, has guided me in proper lawn and garden care and returns to check on how the lawn and plants are doing. No one can control the weather, but Dan is there for the long term to make sure the end result is beautiful. His pricing is detailed, transparent and fair. He explains every item carefully both before the contract is signed and after the work is completed. The only slight negative is that because he is so good and in demand, one may have to wait awhile for work to begin - but the wait is worth it. I definitely plan on using him again."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.

In most municipalities, lawn care and mowing companies require at least a business license to operate legally. However, requirements can vary by location, and some areas mandate that landscaping companies be licensed, insured, and bonded, or even hold a general contractor license. Before hiring any lawn service, confirm they are fully insured. This protects you from liability for injuries on your property and also protects the company's employees. You can use Angi's state license lookup tool to verify a company's licensing status in your area.

While it's a good idea to water your grass during a drought or when temperatures are high, you should not water your lawn every day. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. Avoid watering in the middle of the day or when the temperature is above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, as the extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water your lawn in the summer is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening, such as between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., when it's cooler.

If your lawn and general landscape are struggling, consider calling a local landscape specialist to suggest lawn amendments, local plants, and hardscape changes to boost the long-term health of your outdoor space. While you may be able to take on small projects yourself—such as reseeding your lawn or testing the soil—a professional can help you build a plan to bring a struggling yard back to life quickly.

Yes, Bahia grass spreads on its own thanks to its short stolon system. However, it might not seem like your Bahia grass spreads well due to its slow growth. Bahia grass takes around 3 to 4 weeks to germinate and an additional two weeks to grow thicker. 

During this time, fast-growing, competitive weeds may pop up, so weed your lawn to give your Bahia grass a chance to grow. This grass can take up to two years to become established. Once established, Bahia grass typically does well in suitable climates.
