"Been using Dobson lawn care for years and years and finally had enough of their poor service and high costs. We have an 18 zone system with 100 heads. Hired Pacific lawn and met the owner. He is very courteous and knowledgeable. His crew are quick and neat. They get the job done. I hired them to install a new head. Then to install and new controller. They even programmed it remotely. Then used them to winterize my system. They allow you to book service on line. They show up as promised. And fair prices. What else can you ask for? Definitely recommend."

"I was very happy with Gerard. He's extremely knowledgeable and explained my sprinkler system since I'm new to the home, and needed some guidance. He also fined tuned the watering schedule since the grass was being over watered in one area. Tested the entire system all the zones. I would highly recommend him, no need to look any further he's a great guy and also a great value!. I will be using him to blow out the line, and close the system annually."

"This is a truly professional company that knows their work inside out. The work was completed in one day by skilled workers and the lawn was handled with great care. If it was surgery, I’d call it minimally invasive. The lawn looks great."

"I had multiple companies come and give me quotes for my sod job. Not only was personal touch the best price but also very professional. Men came on time, installed my new sod after a good prep and when they left everthing was all cleaned up. If you need a new lawn than give personal Touch a call."

"Great! John, the owner was super helpful and nice on the phone. Eased all our concerns. The crew, Phil and Tim, showed up right on time and were able to locate the service caps in the lawn in 10 minutes. They showed me clearly how full the tanks were and clearly explained the problem and the solution. The prices quoted were very fair and there were no surprises. It took around 90 minutes. The job was all done outdoors and when they left you would never know it was done. Very neat and professional. The odors, etc we had were gone and we noticed the drains all flowing more freely. Exactly as they said. So glad we had this done before it became a serious and ugly problem inside the house. We highly recommend Priority Cesspool Sewer and Drain. Thank you!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

The first step is killing any current nutgrass plants, either through application of herbicides or sugar, by digging up the plants and rhizomes, or by using soil solarization. To discourage new nutgrass plants from forming, ensure proper landscape drainage and bring shade into areas of the lawn that are consistently damp.

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 can fertilize right after mowing as long as you've collected the clippings. If you leave grass clipping, they can form a mat that prevents the fertilizer from reaching the soil. Plus, grass clippings are rich in nitrogen, so if you leave them and then apply fertilizer, you can end up with too much nitrogen in the soil.

Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.

Most businesses schedule services weekly or biweekly to maintain a professional appearance and healthy lawn.
