"This Mom & Pop business Needs Work. The Wife is easy to talk to very nice customer service skills. The Husband is a No Mannered Brute. He comes to do the work always in a hurry, for 2 seasons I have complained about a leak in my system, he Never took the time to find it. He sent me several Nasty texts, which I will never post, all because his wife is very nice and I will Not try to hurt the business. Just want customers to be aware. As this season is winding down maybe the husband can take some customer service Classes, First How to respect your customers. Second, Take time to listen to your customers. There are plenty more classes you should take but I Don?t have that Kind of Time. I should have written this review months ago, but I never write a review when I am angry..

"Absolutely fantastic job with our installation. Mike responded quickly. Met me at my house to review our yard and situation. Provided a written estimate within minutes and delivered when we asked!! The team of 4 who did the installation were extremely professional, quick and left the yard in great shape. After 4 weeks, the lawn looks fantastic and new grass has grown in the trenched areas beautifully. I can't recommend NJ Irrigation enough for installation services. Sadly, as the weather cools, I'm about to call them to close it down for the season - but I'll be ready next year to ensure our lawn remains the talk of the neighborhood thanks to Mike and NJ Irrigation!!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

First, make sure you’re watering your grass early in the morning (and keep in mind you don’t have to water every day). Doing this helps ensure the water is able to soak in before the hot temps evaporate all of the water. Also, when you mow, don’t mow your grass as short as you would in non-drought conditions. Taller grass can help slow down the rate at which soil dries out. Finally, take your leftover lawn clippings and spread them out across the lawn to give it a little extra shade and nutrients.

You should put pre-emergent herbicide and fertilizer on your lawn in the spring. Pre-emergent herbicide keeps weeds from taking root. Fertilizer helps your grass to grow lush and dense and blocks future weeds from growing. You can also add amendments, such as sulfur and lime, to enhance your soil quality. 

Many factors can cause your yard to have lawn depressions. Here are the most common reasons: 

  • Heavy rainfall 

  • Wild animals such as moles, voles, and groundhogs that burrow and tunnel

  • Poor drainage

  • Buried items such as pipes that break down

  • Decaying tree roots or stumps

  • Soil that has compacted

  • Improper mowing techniques

  • Driving heavy equipment and vehicles through the yard

Whether or not grass will fill in bare spots itself depends on the type of grass you have. For example, grass with rhizomes (e.g., Bermuda grass) and stolons (e.g., Saint Augustine grass) will naturally fill in bald spots as it spreads laterally. However, clump-forming grasses will not spread. 

When your sod is new, you should keep an eye on it to prevent dehydration. As new sod plants its roots into the soil beneath it, it can easily get dehydrated and start to turn brown. Keeping a consistent watering schedule for your new sod will help prevent this issue and will help it thrive as it roots into your yard.

Once your sod is about six weeks old, you can start to establish a regular lawn maintenance routine, complete with mowing, edging, and fertilizing.
