"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 questions, answered by experts

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.

Start your search for a good lawn care company by finding some landscapers in your area; it might be a good idea to research companies that already work on your block, as they’re more likely to be able to fit you into their schedules, given your proximity. Next, conduct a search online to see if they have positive customer reviews, and try to avoid companies that have poor scores or a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, make sure to ask each company about pricing, contracts, scheduling, and any add-on services.

This depends on the type of grass seed, as some types do better in different environmental conditions. Cool-season grasses go dormant during the summer months when the soil temperature exceeds 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Once exposed to regular doses of heat, the germination rates decline, with seedling death not far behind. 

As for warm-season seeds, they come from tropical parts of the world and thrive in heat. They actively grow in warm air temperatures between 70 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and they prefer soil temperatures between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Once temperatures dip and frost rolls in, if you don’t store them properly, warm-season grass seeds will die quickly.

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.

Yes, you can overseed your lawn without aerating it, but results may vary. If you have the time, dethatching or aerating your lawn before overseeding will yield the best results. Overseeding your lawn without aerating will work, but less seed will take root. For the best possible results, aerate your lawn before overseeding it.
