Horsey Irrigation Services was born in Connecticut with a simple idea: irrigation service should feel like a favor from a good neighbor, not just another transaction with a contractor.\n\nAfter more than 15 years working with irrigation systems across homes, condominium associations, and commercial properties throughout New England, William Quintanilla decided to found Horsey Irrigation Services together with his partner Oliver Arias to do things their way: with real quality, fair pricing, and direct communication with every client.\n\nWe are not an anonymous company with a distant call center. When you call us, you talk to William or to Oliver. When we arrive at your property, we arrive with the same truck, the same crew, and the same values we've carried since day one.

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you should water your grass after seeding it. During the first couple of weeks after laying the seed, you should water the lawn two or three times per day for 10 to 15 minutes each session. After that, you can switch to 20- or 30-minute watering sessions every other day.

No, watering dead grass will not bring it back to life. If the grass on your lawn is truly dead, no amount of water will bring it back to life. However, some methods can bring dying grass back to life. Consider aerating, overseeding, or analyzing your soil to get to the root of why the grass is dying. 

Germination varies with grass type and climate, generally taking 7 to 21 days. Full lawns develop over a few months.

Speeding up grass seed germination is possible, but it requires quite a bit of extra work and commitment. Keeping the soil moist is key, but here are a few other tried-and-true methods for growing your new grass as quickly as possible:

  • Mist grass up to eight times per day to keep the soil moist.

  • Purchase a moisture-retaining seed coating for your grass seeds.

  • Amend soil that is compacted or in the wrong pH range.

  • Choose the right grass seed for your area’s climate and soil conditions.

  • Avoid planting on windy days or during periods of extreme rain or drought.

While it’s possible to grow grass seeds by throwing them down, this isn’t the best way to plant them. By amending and prepping the soil beforehand, you’re providing optimal contact between seed and soil for a better chance at germination. If you throw them down without preparing the soil beforehand, seeds are more likely to blow away, get eaten by hungry birds, or never grow.
