"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."

"Edison and his team quite literally saved our back yard. We had major flooding and ponding issues for the last two years, so much so that it killed off about half of the grass in our yard. These guys installed a new drainage system, regraded, and seeded our yard all within a matter of a couple weeks. We went from a marshy duck pond back to a lush green pasture and have had no signs of ponding or flooding since. Canâ t thank them enough!"

"Fantastic job. From beginning with the estimate to finishing up the installation of the new lawn everything went smoothly. Aurelio and his assistant returned the next morning in the snow to complete the last section of lawn. A true professional goes that extra mile for his customers."

"Anthony came and we talked about the project I wanted done. He was very professional and knowledgeable about what I wanted. He arrived with his crew on time and ready to get started. Anthony told the crew of four what to do and they all got started. They worked very hard and well with each other getting the job done. What a job they did my front yard and back yard are looking great with no leaves or papers that were blown in. I have hired Anthony to mow my lawns every other week thatâ s what an impression he and his crew made on me. Thank you â Thunderâ"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.

You should wait about seven to 10 days after you top dress your lawn to mow. This will give the ground ample time to absorb the nutrients from the sand, topsoil, and compost, and help facilitate growth before you trim the existing grass. It’s also best to water the lawn frequently in the week or so after you top dress and before you mow.

No—in fact, it can be beneficial to your lawn if you maintain a routine. By flipping blades of grass in the opposite direction, you’re allowing that side to absorb more sunlight than it normally would. Alternating the mowing directions will help your grass gather sunlight more evenly over time, leading to a more vibrant and healthy lawn. 

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

Sometimes, pulling nutgrass can cause it to spread. If you do not discard the plant and rhizomes, the nutlets attached to the roots may each sprout. However, if you pull nutgrass repeatedly over the course of several weeks and discard the plant each time, it will weaken the plant significantly, eventually leading to its disappearance.
