"Prior to starting the job, Dig Safe was notified and scheduled a survey of vital areas on the property.
Day 1 started with the removal of the plastic edging and flag placement for all sprinkler zones.
The next day the garbage was removed from site and there was a wait until Dig Safe survey was completed.
In the weeks to follow, Excavation was conducted in a logical way as to minimize large machinery travel over the lawn.
My immaculate lawn was pretty much destroyed and Rick assured my that it will return to normal.
I want to note that at the end of there work day the work areas were cleaned up and areas that were potentially hazardous were roped off with yellow tape.
The patio was the first to be completed, followed by parts of the house perimeter sailor border then the pool perimeter border.
The front steps were brought in next and they encountered issues with the Granite pieces. Gagne and Sons were quick in the response of getting replacement pieces the next day.
Finally, the asphalt driveway was removed and the excavation had begun.
With the Driveway installation completed, They tied in all the sailor border areas that were not yet completed and focused on lawn repair.
The Lawn repair was also coordinated with irrigation relocation and repair. This was a little frustrating due to the scheduling difficulties. I have to say the Ronnie of Casco Bay Irrigation worked several weekend days to get things ready between different stages of the project.
I am quite pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Organics Lawn And Landscape to anyone.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.

No, it's not really possible to completely prevent weed growth. Weeds are incredibly resilient—all they usually need is a tiny bit of dirt to sprout, so their eventual appearance is pretty much inevitable. However, you can definitely keep them at bay by getting rid of weeds as soon as you notice them. The longer you let them sit and grow roots, the more they'll spread.

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.

The best way to keep voles from tunneling in your yard is to keep grass trimmed and bushes cut back from the ground at least 5 inches. Cleaning up yard debris, wood chip piles, and brush piles can also help keep voles at bay. If you notice vole activity, you can also remove bird feeders since these are a ready source of food for the tunneling rodents.

Buffalo grass is not a dense grass, so weeds can grow between the buffalo grass plants. However, as long as you don’t overwater your lawn, weeds have a hard time growing. If you do notice weeds, you can use granular herbicides that are safe for buffalo grass in early and late summer.
