"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

While hydroseeding is typically meant for bare soil, it is possible to hydroseed over an existing lawn with some adjustments. For the new seed to germinate and thrive, it needs good seed-to-soil contact. Without it, most of the seed may not take root and will die. To improve your chances of success when repairing a patchy area, mow any existing grass as low as possible and loosen any exposed soil before application. It is also recommended to use a finer mulch mixture when spraying, as this will help the seeds reach the soil and root without suffocating the existing grass.

It costs $1,500 on average to hydroseed a 1/2-acre lawn professionally. DIY hydroseeding costs about $300 to $500 for the machine rental, plus the cost of your seed, mulch, and fertilizer. Often, it makes sense to hire a local lawn seeding service to hydroseed for you to ensure the best coverage and growth.

Common options include Kentucky bluegrass, fescue, and ryegrass. Choose based on climate and lawn usage.

While it’s possible to grow grass seeds by throwing them down, this isn’t the best way to plant them. By amending and prepping the soil beforehand, you’re providing optimal contact between seed and soil for a better chance at germination. If you throw them down without preparing the soil beforehand, seeds are more likely to blow away, get eaten by hungry birds, or never grow.

Because it’s native to the central United States and Canada and is drought-tolerant, it typically is not difficult to grow. It requires very little maintenance and minimal watering beyond rainfall. Its hardy nature and unique look make it a favorite choice among people living in the western United States and other dry regions of the country.
