"Central Wisconsin Excavating (CWE) did a fantastic job on our project. They built a solid, well-prepared foundation for our 80,000-bushel grain bin and graded our driveways perfectly to ensure water drains away from our buildings. Their attention to detail, quality of work, and professionalism really stood out. The site was left clean and properly finished, and everything was done right the first time. We’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend CWE to anyone needing excavation or site work done right."

"Ryan and Joe did a great job. I bought my house late last summer and my lawn was a disaster, moss, weeds, crabgrass, spots with no grass at all. I didn t do much with it in anticipation of getting it re-sodded this spring. I had some of the bigger companies give me quotes, but they weren t available to do the job until July. Ryan and Joe told me that wouldn t be a good idea. Since new sod requires so much water, it s better to get it laid earlier in the year. They were able to complete the job about two weeks after giving me a quote. The sod has been down for two days now and I ve had four neighbors compliment the job already. They worked past dark to get the job done, and even sent me before and after pictures, which I thought was a really nice touch. I highly recommend One Stop Propery Management."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

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.

Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won’t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. 

Water daily, avoid heavy foot traffic, and mow when the grass reaches 3-4 inches.

The best time of year for power seeding depends on your local climate. The soil should be warm, but the air should be cool. If the weather gets too hot after you grow new grass seed, it can die off easily. The best time for power seeding warm-season grasses is late spring to summer, and the best time for power seeding cool-season grasses is in the fall.
