"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."

"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..."

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.

The first step in re-doing a bad lawn is correctly diagnosing the problem. That’s why we recommend calling a licensed and trustworthy lawn care company that can help turn your damaged lawn around. Once the problem is diagnosed and fixed, you’ll want to keep up with lawn maintenance by watering, mowing, and feeding your lawn the proper nutrients.

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. 

Water daily, avoid heavy foot traffic, and mow when the grass reaches 3-4 inches.

Choosing between sod and seed depends on your budget, timeline, and maintenance preferences.

Sod:

  • Pros: Provides an instant, lush lawn and immediate curb appeal. It's more resistant to weeds and erosion, can be installed any time during the growing season, and offers a consistent appearance.

  • Cons: Has a higher upfront cost, typically $0.90 to $1.80 more per square foot than seed. It offers fewer grass varieties and must be installed immediately upon delivery.

Seed:

  • Pros: Less expensive upfront, making it a budget-friendly option. It offers a wider variety of grass types and is easier for a DIY installation.

  • Cons: Takes much longer to establish, potentially up to two years for a full lawn. It requires more maintenance, including regular weed control, and is more difficult to cultivate.

Ultimately, if you want a beautiful lawn quickly and have a larger budget, sod is an excellent choice. If you are patient, want to save money, and prefer a wider selection of grass types, seeding may be the better option.
