"From the initial visit to the clean up after the project, the team was amazing. All my questions were answered timely. I would highly recommend Pacific Lawn Sprinklers to my friends and family. It was a great experience all around and I look forward to having them winterize the system for years to come."

"The sales person who came out to assess my yard and provide an estimate impressed me by being very knowledgable. They really seem to understand and care about the biology of it all. I was disappointed that they couldn't provide me with a time window when the initial work would be done during the day, and more disappointed when they missed the first scheduled day. However, they showed up the following day and got the job done efficiently. Hopeful about the future health of the lawn but time will tell..."

"the service guy, garry, was on time, fast, and knowledgeable. He replaced 5 sprinkler heads quickly without damaging much of my lawn. The price is great though i was a bit skeptical at first because the service call is charged by the hour instead of a flat fee. nevertheless, I am happy with Sprinkler Surgeon and will use them in winterizing this autumn :-)"

"Outstanding service! Our local lawn sprinkler unexpectedly and without warning stopped providing service, and we were left stranded. I reviewed new candidates and selected Greg Tanzer. Couldn't be more pleased. They were extremely responsive, informative, professional, and very affordable. We will be switching our business to Greg's business."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Mowing at least once a week during the growing season is a good general rule. However, every lawn is different, and factors like frequent rain and fertilizer use can cause grass to grow faster, potentially requiring mowing as often as every four days. When you mow, always follow the 'one-third rule': never cut more than one-third of the grass blade's height at once, as this can weaken it and prevent it from taking in proper nutrients. For most grass types, the ideal height is around 2 to 3 inches, though some warm-weather grasses do better when kept shorter at about 1.5 to 2 inches.

Yes, you can overwater your lawn. While water is essential for growth, too much can be damaging. Overwatering keeps the soil saturated, which can suffocate roots, kill beneficial bacteria, and starve the grass of nutrients and oxygen, leading to root rot. This can occur due to a leaky irrigation system, a rainy season, or using a sprinkler too often. In addition to harming your lawn's health and longevity, overwatering can also increase your water bill.

St. Augustine is a hardy grass that’s relatively easy to grow, but it requires regular lawn maintenance to stay healthy. It’s best to keep up with a regular fertilization schedule during the growing season, plus a yearly dethatching to help it properly absorb air and moisture. Watering is also important, so be sure to water it enough to keep the soil moist.

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.

You can leave grass clippings on the lawn, depending on their length. You don’t want to completely cover new grass and block it from sunlight, or encourage moss crowd out the more delicate grass. However, short clippings are usually fine to leave on the lawn. In some cases, they can be beneficial: Clippings can be a source of fertilizer and help protect the ground as young grass blades develop.
