"Original date of installation was Thursday, June 11. They called me to inform me that an opening was available on Monday, June 8. I took it. They came within the window they provided for installation. They did an outstanding job. It was very professional. They worked clean outside and inside. It was almost difficult to tell that the system had been in stalled. The grass was replaced so that it was difficult to see where the ground had been dug up. The whole crew was very polite. Once the system was installed, the team leader instructed me on how to use the system. The next morning the sprinklers came on and worked exactly as they were supposed to. The six zone, 25 sprinkler system watered every inch of my lawn and all the shrubbery and flowers around the house. My wife and I are very pleased. We would rate them A+ if we could. We certainly recommend them for anyone who wants this system put in by a great professional organization.

"I was having  a problem with water leaking out into the yard from an unknown source. Called several companies (I open the system myself) who said it was probably a defective valve or leaking manifold causing the issue. I asked for a ball park number which ranged from $200 to $325 "depending on what would have to be replaced". I called Quality Irrigation who took the time to ask specific questions on the phone. He came up with the same diagnosis but said with any luck it may be repairable without taking apart the manifold. He came out the next day, literally took the valve apart to find that a stainless steel nut was stuck in the diaphragm causing the value to slow leak and flood the yard. He reassembled the valve, boot up the system and it worked like a charm. He charged me just for his time, $85. I now have a new sprinkler service company! Thank you..."

"The job went great! Prior to installation of the irrigation system, Jimmy worked with my landscaper to ensure the new sod and planting beds we were having installed would thrive. The crew showed up at the agreed upon time and were very professional. The supervisor came by to make sure everything was going as expected and was available to answer any questions we had. They came back to our home two weeks later for a two week follow-up. The technician walked us through the system step by step (again) and made necessary adjustments. Unfortunately, a week after our 2 week follow-up visit we discovered an area of our new sod that wasn't getting enough water. All County quickly responded and sent another technician back to our home to adjust the necessary sprinkler heads. We couldn't be happier with our new irrigation system and would definitely recommend All County Irrigation to anyone looking to make their lives easier by installing an automatic sprinkler system. "

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

The amount of time it takes for grass to germinate varies depending on the grass species. Even after germination, it’s going to take a while to see grass blades start emerging from soil. Some grasses germinate quickly and emerge after several days of growth (and healthy watering). Others may take up to three weeks to show themselves. Cool-season grasses tend to take the longest to germinate at one month.

Fine fescue grass can germinate within 12 to 22 days. Of course, factors such as soil and climate can determine how long it will take for your no-mow grass to sprout. New grass seed needs adequate sunshine, oxygen, moisture, and healthy soil for successful germination. The best time to plant fescue grass is early spring or early fall.

If you’re wondering whether grass seed will germinate on top of soil, the answer is yes. In fact, it’s the best way to plant your grass seed. Spread seeds in an even layer on top of loose, fertile soil will allow them to germinate and grow strong roots. Topping them with a thin layer of straw will help them retain moisture and stay put, as well as protect them from getting eaten by animals.

No, it's not a good idea to put grass seed directly on top of dead grass. For successful germination and growth, grass seed needs good soil contact. To prepare the area, start by removing the dead grass using a shovel or a sod cutter. Then, loosen the soil, add soil amendments if necessary, and spread the grass seed evenly. This allows the seed to come into direct contact with the soil, promoting better germination and establishing a healthier lawn.

Properly preparing the soil for planting grass seed may include applying fertilizer several weeks before spreading the seed if you plan to overseed the lawn. However, in most cases involving a brand-new lawn, spreading a starter fertilizer along with the grass seed will give it the best chance of taking root quickly and growing strong.
