Raked the yard front and back and two side yards to incorporate new soil and make everything smooth and flat and level. Covered bare sweet gum maple roots. Removed all ruts and shallow holes in back yard creating a smooth flat surface the grandkids can play on. Seeded with quality, Kentucky Best grass seed and laid a layer of straw for protection. Cleaned off asphalt driveway cracks filled with weeds and debris. Sealed cracks in old asphalt (2.5 car) driveway. A layer of new asphalt was added for a smooth black clean surface. Cleaned off the curb on the street side of grass and weed debris. Installed drainage system to include 4 French drains using gravel line ditched, used drainage pipe from each corner end of the house which fed water underground and to the street. They also removed 11 Shepherd’s hooks which had hanging flowers and bird feeding stations to move the dirt and level the yard with heavy equipment. The bird feeding stations I could were deep in hard dry soil and the descendants of Roman gods made quick work of sheperds hooks and bird fountains. Now we can put them back once we have grass growing. Yes, we thought their price was higher than previous quotes from others. But we have been waiting a year plus to get this done and no one could get to it till January 2023. They were well recommended and completed the work in 7 hours with a great team of hard-working, very polite, and skilled young men."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

Herbicide application, manual removal, and landscape fabric are common approaches.

Crabgrass is very resilient, and homemade solutions like vinegar may not be strong enough. Typically, hand-weeding is the most effective option that doesn’t involve harmful chemicals. You can use corn-meal gluten as a natural pre-emergent herbicide, but it’s not as effective as chemical weed killers.

Look for a broadleaf herbicide, one that has been formulated specifically for dandelions and is considered grass-safe.
