"One of the very best companies that I've hired over the past 30 years. Extremely professional and the entire crew was very hard working. They quickly made any changes that I wanted to the original plan. Great communications. The irrigation system is easy to use and the lawn coverage from the overlapping sprays turned out perfectly. I really can't say enough good things about Hydro-Tech Irrigation Co."

"The person carrying out this winterization is someone I had not used previously as my previous irrigation company dissolved. This individual at Atlantic has over 20 years working with the company and was superb in carrying out the winterization and in one instance where the top of a fixture was missing creating a situation for large leak (that I wished repaired at this time) he found the missing part nearby and replaced it...without charge !! Needless to say...after arriving the morning after I made a request for an irrigation company...with cold weather arriving the following day...I couldn't be more happy with the result and service. I will retain and contract this company for all of my lawn irrigation needs in the future...!!"

"Very pleased with the outstanding customer service provided by Geary Powell and The Irrigation Professionals team. I submitted an Angi request to have a sprinkler system installed Monday afternoon September 11. Geary called me the next morning and was at my home four hours later to survey my property. His estimate was more than $1,500 less than the other two I received and included a highly rated Rachio wireless control box. After Geary completed the estimate, he told me they had an opening to install the system the following Wednesday, September 20. The team arrived at 8 a.m. and worked diligently for the next eight hours to install 40+ heads in eight zones. The foreman/plumber also did an excellent job plumbing in the backflow preventer, which required him to route the tubing through an enclosed ceiling in the basement. When the team was finished, they re-compressed our turf back and seeded the bare spots to restore our lawn back to normal. After the installation was complete, the foreman showed me how to download the Rachio application to my cell phone, walked me through the process of programming each zone to account for vegetation, sun exposure, land slope, etc., and did a quality check with me. Following his advice, I set up the irrigation profile to run before sunrise the next morning. The system worked perfectly, even telling me when and for how long each zone ran. I'm amazed by how irrigation technology has progressed over the years, as the Rachio controller connects to the weather service, which combines with the rain sensor to stop watering when it rains. And of course, the convenience of controlling our system via phone is an added plus. While the foreman was connecting the system to our water supply, he had to cut a 9 by 9 inch hole in the basement ceiling to insert a 90 degree connector into the tubing. His cut was very neat, he preserved the drywall, put down plastic to catch the dust, and told me the company would send someone out to repair the hole. The next morning Geary called to see if we would be available for someone to take care of it between noon and 1 p.m. that day. A very courteous young man arrived at 12:30 and less than two hours later (which included time for the mud to dry), just like the irrigation project, the work was completed flawlessly. In fact, you canâ t even tell a repair was made. Bottom line: from initial contact to delivery I couldn't be happier with the service we received from The Irrigation Professionals. The professionalism and outstanding customer service displayed by Geary and his team definitely live up to their name!"

"The work was done very well as discussed previously. Pablo was very conscientious with his work. Trees and bushes were trimmed to allow light for the grass. French drain to capture water runoff was installed. Work was done efficiently. Grass seed and cover were put down. Sump pump runout needs some more work as per photo."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Those who live in between zones may have summers too warm for many cool-season grasses and winters too cold for warm-season grasses. Grasses selected for these climates must be well adapted to both conditions, so opt for tall fescue if your area is more prone to very cold temperatures or kikuyu grass if your home has notably hot summers.

Seeding a lawn offers several advantages over laying sod, primarily related to cost and variety. Seeding is less expensive upfront, making it a more budget-friendly option. It also provides a much broader selection of grass varieties, allowing you to choose the best type for your specific climate and soil. Additionally, seeding allows grass roots to establish directly in the native soil, and the installation process is typically less labor-intensive than sodding. However, it's important to consider that sod offers better immediate protection against weeds and erosion.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

Bermuda grass is one of the fastest-growing warm-season grasses because of its system of aboveground stems (stolons) and below-ground stems (rhizomes). Adequate water and sunlight in a warmer climate will nurture the spread of Bermuda grass. This rapid growth rate makes Bermuda grass resilient and effective at choking weeds. However, this aggressive advancement can also make the grass difficult to contain and control.

There are several possible reasons why your Bermuda grass is not thick, with the biggest reasons being too little water, too much shade, compacted soil, drainage issues, and too few nutrients in the soil. Bermuda grass needs frequent and direct sunlight to stay thick, so thinning grass is likely the result of a lack of sun.
