"I found Luis Zapata with Aqua Irrigation on Angie’s list, and I must say that Luis far exceeded my expectations. Luis arrived early completed the job quickly and professionally. The cost was far less than I expected. I highly recommend hiring Aqua Irrigation for all of your Irrigation needs. It is refreshing to know there are still honest people out there who do a great job at a fair price."

"Luis, his son, and rest of the team did a great job setting up irrigation system at my home. This project was all done within 1 day. Loving the new Rachio sprinkler system app that allows me to control all my zones and setup water scheduling for my lawn. 5-star service and I would highly recommend Luis and Aqua Irrigation for any irrigation system services."

"We needed a total audit of our sprinkler system due to landscape construction we had done over the years. Heads needed to be changed and moved and a new water line to one of the zones needed to be replaced. I made an appointment with Luis the owner of Aqua Irrigation who came to the appointment on time and never requested a different time because he was too busy or it didn’t work for him. He said he wants to run the current system to see what exactly was going on with it. I was apprehensive at first because I felt water was just going to flood everything but I understood he needed to know what exactly was going on and what was needed to fix everything. He tested everything and gave me a quote then and there so I didn’t have to wait for it. We set the appointment up for the work to be done and he showed up on time once again. He ran a new water line to one of the zones, changed numerous sprinkler heads that I knew needed replacement, and moved heads to proper locations based on the new changes to the landscape. The price was very reasonable. Someone else I had come to give me an estimate didn’t physically check the system and had told me I’d likely need a total replacement of the system. This obviously would’ve cost us much more. I found Luis to be professional, personable, honest, and knowledgeable. We were very happy with the work and would definitely recommend Aqua Irrigation. We’ve added them as our”go to” lawn irrigation service provider."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

If thrown on the ground and left, some Bermuda seeds will sprout on the surface, but you will have a diminished germination rate. It’s best to cultivate the area before spreading the seeds for optimal results. Rake the area first and then evenly distribute the Bermuda seeds. Cover the space with about ¼ inch of soil before watering the area.

First, you should figure out whether you have dormant or dead grass. Dead grass won’t come back, so you’ll have to reseed if you’re hoping for a lush lawn. However, grass can go dormant if it hasn’t received enough water or if temperatures are too cold. If it’s still decently warm outside, you can revive dormant grass by watering it. But if it’s mid-January in New England, for example, you’ll need to wait until the weather warms up again. If you want to keep grass green in winter, consider a grass like Kentucky bluegrass, which maintains its color year-round.

Foxtail self-seeds and dispurses them among other grasses and pastures. The seeds can spread by wind and by attaching themselves to animals and humans. Seeds will germinate in their new location and become a new plant, which continues the spread of foxtail. Unfortunately, foxtail spreads easily, making it difficult to remove unless it’s caught quickly.

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.
