"We had a sprinkler system installed by Go Green Lawn & Sprinklers last week. We are still in awe of how incredible it is.  No more watering, moving around sprinklers, etc., etc.  From start to finish, this has been a great experience!  While checking around and getting bids, we were lucky enough to find Joe at Go Green Lawn & Sprinklers. He came to our home, surveyed our property, answered all of our questions (and then some) and we knew that he was the man/company for the job.  His team worked so hard to get the job done professionally and efficiently.  Once the job was completed, Joe came out again to go over everything with us, he checked to make sure everything was in order (which it was), helped us set up the app and the zones correctly, along with every little intricacy that goes along with a system like this.  He also took the time to once again answer all of our questions. We are so happy that Go Green installed our new sprinkler system.  We absolutely love it and would highly recommend them!!  Thank you, Joe!!"

"Took four of us 20 minutes to clear away some junk which would have taken all weekend by myself. Then they graded away weeds and organic garden debris and leaves. Then they leveled out fresh top soil and provided proper grading for drainage. Then they laid and watered fresh dormant fescue sod, and gave me instructions for care. Worth every penny, took thier 4 man crew 6 hours to do a job which would have taken me a lifetime"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

In general, cool-season grasses such as fescue grass, ryegrass, and Kentucky bluegrass are best for creating a striped lawn. Warm-season grasses like bermuda and zoysia grass don't curl as much, so grass stripes aren't as easy to see. If you live in a climate that’s better suited for warm-season grass, zoysia grass will typically be your best option.

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

It is not recommended to mow wet grass, including grass with morning dew. Mowing when wet can damage your lawn, your mower, and potentially cause injury. Wet grass blades are more likely to be torn rather than cut cleanly, which can lead to brown tips and increase the risk of fungal diseases. Additionally, wet clippings can clump together, smothering the grass underneath, and can clog your mower. For best results, wait until the grass is dry to the touch, which is often about two hours after morning dew has evaporated. Regular lawn mower maintenance is also important for a clean cut.
