"Our sprinkler system is newly installed so I cannot rate customer service other than for the period prior to and during installation. The initial encounter with Martin was very positive and he was responsive in addressing my follow-on questions and concerns. I chose Burge after evaluating 3 companies. While there were minor differences in the approach of the 3, the price and details were similar. Burge stood out based on reviews of their customer service over multiple years as well as their provision of an online capability that worked for our family. The installation was very professional and initial results meet our needs."

"Super easy to schedule! They were on time and did a fantastic job aerating my yard. The Toro stand-on aerator they used is far superior to the push/walk behind aerators. Definitely recommend MD Decking for your aeration."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Instant greenery, erosion control, and no waiting for germination make sod a preferable choice.

Provided you're using an appropriate starter fertilizer for grass seed, you can put down seeds and fertilizer at the same time. However, putting them down separately, one after the other, on the same day will help to avoid over- or under-applying the lawn food. Avoid using a fertilizer with weed control elements, as these will likely keep the grass seeds from starting.  

Fine fescue grass can germinate within 12 to 22 days. Of course, factors such as soil and climate can determine how long it will take for your no-mow grass to sprout. New grass seed needs adequate sunshine, oxygen, moisture, and healthy soil for successful germination. The best time to plant fescue grass is early spring or early fall.

Shade-tolerant grass seed still needs between four and six hours of sun to germinate, and many types require a little extra care to thrive. However, it is possible to plant new grass seed in shaded areas when you choose the right variety.

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.
