"David Brainard (Brainard's Greenscapes) designed our back yard, which was nothing but sand and restored the front yard, which needed a makeover. The job involved leveling the sand, placing two colors of rock in various areas, revamping the irrigation with river rock, designing a flagstone sidewalk with circular patio, and designed two grass areas out of faux grass with steel edging around the grass sections. He also installed a drip irrigation system including a controller in the garage. David is very responsive, courteous, timely and full of ideas. He also is extremely knowledgeable about plants. He answers the phone immediately and follows up promptly. If you have a problem after the job is finished, David responds just as promptly as he did when the job began. He organized his crew (at times up to seven), and they, too, were very polite and courteous. They worked all day in the hot sun for six days. His workers were professional and did an outstanding job. The landscape looks beautiful. We are extremely pleased with the yard and would hire David Brainard again. We highly recommend him if your yard has any type of landscaping needs. Shirley and Duane"

"Bryan and his team did an amazing job on my backyard. They handled the installation of natural grass, irrigation system, rock and brick. Bryan and Elio were awesome throughout the whole process and got it done in a very timely manner. The price for the job was great and affordable, and the value of the job was spectacular. I will be recommending Bryan and his company to all of my friends and family, and will be using them in the future for my next projects."

"Fantastic. The crew showed up on time and worked hard for 4 days. They were extremely professional, they did everything they promised and more, and in the end, the irrigation system turned out to be great. It was not an easy project because the home had a older system that was a mess. I will hire this company the next time I need ANY landscaping work."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

This depends on the type of grass seed, as some types do better in different environmental conditions. Cool-season grasses go dormant during the summer months when the soil temperature exceeds 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Once exposed to regular doses of heat, the germination rates decline, with seedling death not far behind. 

As for warm-season seeds, they come from tropical parts of the world and thrive in heat. They actively grow in warm air temperatures between 70 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and they prefer soil temperatures between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Once temperatures dip and frost rolls in, if you don’t store them properly, warm-season grass seeds will die quickly.

Technically, yes, at least some of the grass seed you throw on the ground will germinate. If the area doesn’t have good drainage, rain or overwatering can move seeds before they have germinated, leaving your patches still patchy. What does grow won’t have strong roots if there isn’t proper aeration.

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.

The best grass type for shady areas depends on your region, your preferences, and your yard’s microclimate. Overall, the best cool-season grass for shade is ryegrass or tall fescue, while the best warm-season grass for shade is St. Augustine. But again, this can depend on what you’re looking for in the grass. The best grass for your shady yard might be one that looks good to you, one that tolerates high foot traffic, or grass with other characteristics that make it fit your lawn needs. 

Bermuda grass may be drought-resistant, but it still needs to be watered once or twice a week. The suggested amount of water Bermuda grass needs varies from season to season. Bermuda grass needs about 1 inch of water a week in summer, fall, and winter; it needs up to ¾ inch in spring.
