"Isaac and his crew were very professional. Any questions I had were answered promptly. They were very efficient and paid great detail to every aspect of the project. I had them prep for a pad for my home, some drainage work and also installed my mound system. Very satisfied with the quality of work and would recommend to everyone. Ypu want the job done right the first time Isaac and his crew are the ones to go with."

"This young man has obviously been the recipient of tutelage well beyond his experience as he is wise beyond his years. He is very affable and is a very good listener. He is somehow able to grasp your vision beyond the words you can provide and create just what was in your mind. A fine young man who will probably become way too busy to work for you. Haha"

"I needed a professional to mow my lawn. I found Pegton's from the internet and called. I reached Peter right away, and he immediately offered to meet with me and provide a free estimate on the next day. I was tied up on the next day, so we scheduled a meeting on the day after. At exactly our scheduled time, he showed up, walked around my lawn and provided a very reasonable quote, which I agreed right away. Then he told me the day of each week my lawn would be mowed. On that day of the next week, he and Josh showed up. They mowed the lawn, trimmed the edges, and blew away some small patches of chopped grass. When their work was done, the lawn looked great. From my encounters with Peter, I really feel that he is a very nice person to work with. He is very friendly, punctual, easy to reach by phone, very reliable, and does great work at very reasonable prices. I would highly recommend his services to everyone."

"The work went great. I had a vision in mind to go from a dinky driveway to one where I can park a 30ft camper and turn around in. The pond is a great addition and he knew how to bank it properly. Highly recommend!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Avoid watering your plants once temperatures regularly reach freezing temperatures or lower. Water won’t make it down to the roots at that point—it’ll just freeze to the topsoil level.

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.

The best times to mow your lawn are mid-morning or early evening. Mowing in the mid-morning, around 10 a.m., allows any dew to evaporate so the grass is dry. Cutting dry grass is easier on both the lawn and the mower, and this timing gives the grass blades time to recover in the sunlight before the peak afternoon heat. Alternatively, you can mow in the late afternoon or early evening once the heat of the day has passed. Avoid mowing too early in the morning when the grass is still wet with dew, and try not to mow during the hottest part of the day, as high temperatures and harsh sunlight can put extra stress on the grass.

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.

Mowing your grass regularly, especially if you’re mowing close to the ground, can help kill Johnsongrass. Frequent mowing helps limit the spread of Johnsongrass and can even deplete carbohydrate reserves in rhizomes over time. The more time you leave in between mowing, the more likely Johnsongrass is to regrow and take over your lawn.
