"I’m glad I found a good irrigation company to handle future needs. I had a leak on the side of my house and overwhelmed by it all. They were responsive, quick to come and the leak is now fixed. The two men who came were awesome, friendly and communicative. I’ll see they again come spring!"

"There aren’t many honest, hard working people left in this world that actually take pride in what they do, but Pete Bowen is one of them!!! He worked with me from the beginning in every way you could imagine. He did a great job, he taught me a lot about the irrigation system he installed and we even had a lot of fun along the way. He is always there if I have a question and extremely helpful. If you want an irrigation system, Pete is your man!! He uses a process that does not tear your yard up and is absolutely top notch. I wish I could rate 10 stars. I can’t wait to send him my award winning yard pictures next spring! PETE IS EXCELLENT!!!"

Lawn Irrigation FAQs, answered by experts

It’s best to fix lawn depressions during late spring. You want to wait until after your last frost date and when the yard is not too wet. This also allows ample time for new grass growth once you reseed.

First, you should figure out whether you have dormant or dead grass. Dead grass won’t come back, so you’ll have to reseed if you’re hoping for a lush lawn. However, grass can go dormant if it hasn’t received enough water or if temperatures are too cold. If it’s still decently warm outside, you can revive dormant grass by watering it. But if it’s mid-January in New England, for example, you’ll need to wait until the weather warms up again. If you want to keep grass green in winter, consider a grass like Kentucky bluegrass, which maintains its color year-round.

Yes, but the best approach is to apply fertilizer well before you actually sprinkle the seeds. Apply fertilizer with an NPK ratio somewhere around 10-10-20, or 10-10-10, depending on soil test results and the type of grass you're planting, about six to eight weeks before planting grass seed. This mix added to loosened soil will give the grass seed its best chance of getting off to a solid start. 

Power seeding can be worth it if your existing lawn is looking sparse or patchy. Power seeding can quickly and effectively plant new grass seeds and help grow a thicker lawn. But if your lawn is in pretty good health but could use a little more TLC through dethatching, fertilizing, weeding, or aerating, you may not need to spend money on power seeding costs.

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.
