"From the start, Automatic Irrigation were professional and courteous. They offered a very competitive price (the best by a good margin) and followed it up with high quality work. One of the technicians who did the install has been with the company for almost 30 years, and the care he and his crew took in installing our system showed. They took care of even the smallest details, like sweeping up the small debris from having to drill through the wall for the water line, and properly sealing the hole afterward. The controller and components used were of the highest quality. I could have paid more and still been happy, but again, even price-wise, they were the best. Please feel confident that you will be in good hands going with Automatic Irrigation. I am happy to recommend them to you."

"Project started and finished on time. Installers were very professional with no noticeable damage to lawn. This crew of three was well organized and supervised and watching them work gave me great confidence that the job would be done right. Please consider getting the amazing wireless controllers. Very satisfied with this job and Pacific. I honestly don’t think you will find a better company to install sprinklers. Price was competitive."

"I dealt with John and Dave. They were always very punctual, the proposal was specific it clearly stated what they would be doing, the size of the septic tank, overflow, main line and the cost. It was all done to code. They were polite, responsive and answered all my questions even after the work was completed, I wish I would have realized or been told how extensive the area that was disturbed would be. I would have removed more of the plants."

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, many services provide preseason checks and winterizing to ensure year-round efficiency.

You can leave grass clippings on the lawn, depending on their length. You don’t want to completely cover new grass and block it from sunlight, or encourage moss crowd out the more delicate grass. However, short clippings are usually fine to leave on the lawn. In some cases, they can be beneficial: Clippings can be a source of fertilizer and help protect the ground as young grass blades develop.

One of the best ways to save money on lawn care is to sign up for an annual contract for ongoing service rather than paying for one-off or as-needed services. If you guarantee a landscaping company ongoing work, they’re more likely to give you a break on the cost. Plus, ongoing services will keep your property in tip-top shape and help avoid the high cost of playing catch up on an overgrown lawn. You can also save money by sticking to the basics and foregoing add-on services like weeding and pest treatments.

You should mow your lawn first and water it afterward, in most cases. You should not mow when your lawn it’s wet as it could clog the blades. If you haven't been watering your lawn for an extended time or your area is experiencing a drought, water your grass first. Mowing thin, wispy grass can be difficult, so allow it to become fuller and thicker before mowing. Once it looks more lush and dry, go ahead and mow.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.
