"Very well. I bought the $1499 for a 4-man crew for 8 hours. One of their trucks broke down on the way to my house and the business owner immediately apologized and said that he was throwing out the clock and would stay as long as it took to finish my job. They did. I was also very happy with how they left my yard -- clean and without major damage to the lawn."

"The crew was meticulous and hardworking. But what this vendor has that none of the other lawn services have is a knowledgeable and creative master Gardner on staff. As an MG myself, I love working with someone who was actually appreciative and expert in her horticultural knowledge. If you just want to whack the hell out of your lawn go with one of the other companies. This one is for people who want something far more valuable than an ordinary yard."

"Great experience. Never used Angi before but made it super easy. Was quoted $5200 for a pool irrigation reroute and repair which I thought was high. Within a day of submitting a need for it, I had contact from Jim and was scheduled only 3 days later. The crew showed up Friday morning at 9ish and finished by 5. Fantastic work. Did exactly what I asked plus cleaned up another zone that helps a lot. Great job to the whole crew. I think the main guy on site was John. He was very attentive. Thanks!!"

"The quality of the work by Ronco over the past 15+ years has been outstanding and the entire staff has been very easy to work with and super friendly! If we were moving to a home that has a lawn, it would be a no brainer for us to install a system and service from Ronco Irrigation!! Cannot recommend this company enough!!"

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

When stored under ideal conditions, grass seed lasts anywhere from 10 to 18 months from the testing date without any real decrease in the germination rate. You can still use the seeds after this timeframe, but the germination rates drop 10% to 20% each year. 

If you’re just embarking on an overseeding project, using seeds that have been in storage for a few years isn’t too big of a deal. However, if you’re planning on redoing your entire landscape, your best bet for a healthy, luscious lawn is to use new seeds.

The best way to fix a lumpy yard depends on the cause. However, in many cases, you can address yard lumps by improving the health of your soil and turfgrass. Choose grass varieties that are best suited for your area and look for disease-resistant varieties. Fertilize and water your lawn as needed to keep it looking lush throughout the warmer months. Mow your grass at a height of 2 to 3 inches once or twice a week.

Power seeding can be worth it if your existing lawn is looking sparse or patchy. Power seeding can quickly and effectively plant new grass seeds and help grow a thicker lawn. But if your lawn is in pretty good health but could use a little more TLC through dethatching, fertilizing, weeding, or aerating, you may not need to spend money on power seeding costs.

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.

The average cost to seed or reseed a lawn is about $1,100, with prices typically ranging from $450 to $1,700. The final cost depends on factors like your lawn size, the type of seed used, and local labor rates. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $0.10 and $0.20.

Here are some cost estimates based on lawn size:

  • 500 square feet: $50–$100

  • 2,000 square feet: $200–$400

  • 4,000 square feet: $400–$800

  • 5,000 square feet: $500–$1,000

  • 1 acre: $3,000–$5,880

  • 2 acres: $6,000–$11,760

  • 5 acres: $15,000–$17,640

Popular seed types for residential lawns include bahia, fescue, and Bermuda. Compared to installing sod, seeding is generally a less expensive option, especially for larger areas.

Additional services can add to the total cost:

  • Fertilization: $80–$400

  • Soil testing: $700–$2,100

  • Yard cleanup and leaf removal: $200–$560

  • Weed treatment: $110–$325

  • Mowing: $50–$210
