These guys were awesome! Did an incredible job, found broken pipes and replaced them, and even left the lawn neat and smooth with grass seed. The way they maneuver the excavator is amazing!

Service was available quickly, prompt and helpful. As often happens, a seemingly simple project was more complicated than expected. Mr Williams worked through it and figured it out; then took care of it without making a big deal of it. The price was very fair and the expertise was worth it.

Technician was very prompt, friendly and took care of the hive very quickly. All done in only 25 minutes, that's why I give a B for price; felt a bit expensive for the small amount of time he was here. But overall I still do give an A! I do recommend!

"20 hours ago New I had high expectations based on the positive reviews and Brian’s own assurances of his experience. Unfortunately, those expectations were not met. From the initial miscalculation of the loam and seed needed to complete the project to his refusal to meet and discuss the unresolved issues, the experience was deeply disappointing. Additional concerns exist but are beyond the scope of this review. To offer a simple comparison: while Brian was working on my property, the electric company happened to reseed a patch of roadside across the street. Their quick, basic repair job yielded better results than what I received. If Brian’s outcome had matched even that standard, I wouldn’t feel the need to leave a negative review. Perhaps his services are adequate for basic tasks like mowing, raking, or plowing. But for more substantial projects, I strongly recommend exploring other options. Do your homework before making a decision."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

There are several best practices you can do to keep your lawn looking healthy. Knowing when to water grass is among the most important. Having your sprinkler timer set to early morning is best because it gives your grass and plants enough time to absorb water before the sun and wind can evaporate it. To maximize a sprinkler’s impact, aerate your lawn once or twice per year. Doing this achieves better absorption and stronger root systems for your grass.

Another name for a lawn worker is a lawn maintenance or service professional. When shopping around for quotes at multiple lawn care companies, ask a representative for the preferred term their professionals use. That way, you can be sure to politely address the professionals when they service and care for your lawn.

If the grass is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. However, you can grow new grass in its place or try the methods mentioned above to revive the grass if it isn’t entirely dead. You can expect St. Augustine grass to come back after moderate droughts, but it will suffer significant nutrient loss after an extended period of drought.

When your sod is new, you should keep an eye on it to prevent dehydration. As new sod plants its roots into the soil beneath it, it can easily get dehydrated and start to turn brown. Keeping a consistent watering schedule for your new sod will help prevent this issue and will help it thrive as it roots into your yard.

Once your sod is about six weeks old, you can start to establish a regular lawn maintenance routine, complete with mowing, edging, and fertilizing.

The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.
