"Bruce was an amazing find. We moved into a house that has countless maintenance issues and noticed the irrigation pipe exiting the house had a large hole it in. The system had not been used in years. After getting two other estimates, Bruce stopped by and gave us an immediate diagnosis and estimate. For a fourth of the cost of Rainbow, Bruce repaired the main valve and had the sprinkler system working in an hour. Elite Irrigation said we needed to replace the entire system but Bruce was able to recognize that the only repair necessary was to the main valve piping. He walked me around the yard, showing where each zone and sprinkler head was, and how to adjust them. He also walked me through the control system, teaching me how to use all of its features. My experience with Bruce was better than I expected and I’ll definitely be calling him for future maintenance. Thanks Bruce!"

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

Both bleach and vinegar are effective at killing and removing moss from surfaces like driveways. Bleach tends to have a longer-lasting effect, potentially keeping moss away for up to a year, whereas vinegar may require more frequent applications. However, vinegar is a non-chemical option that is gentler on the environment. A key consideration is the surface you are treating, as both substances can stain or discolor certain paver materials. It is recommended to test the solution on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't cause damage.

Alternatives to a dumpster include junk removal services and dumpster bags. These are good options if you have limited space and can’t fit a dumpster on your property or if a dumpster isn’t available. You can also take smaller loads of waste to a disposal facility yourself if you have a vehicle that can fit your items.

If your dog always does their business in the yard, daily poop pick-up makes sense. The nitrogen in the poop can start making its way into the grass and surrounding soil quickly, a rain shower can send the waste into waterways, and less poop lying around means less chance of stepping on it accidentally. 

Raking is one way to remove moss from your lawn. However, if you rake live moss, it can spread and exacerbate the problem. Instead, use a moss killer, then wait a couple of weeks before raking to ensure the moss is dead and can’t spread to other areas of your lawn.

We always recommend wearing a protective mask when blowing leaves (as well as goggles if possible). Blowing leaves creates a lot of dust, and in many cases that dust contains a bunch of allergens that can make those sensitive very miserable. Even worse, moldy leaves can contain fungi and bacteria that could make humans as animals very sick. Mask up before starting your leaf project, and if anyone is helping you collect the leaves it’s a good idea if they wear a mask, too.
