"I was not very pleased with this company. We were told we would have our landscaping and wall finished by Halloween. Halloween came and went. Then, by Thanksgiving, then, Christmas. Finally, Valentine’s Day it was finished…kind of. The men were not consistent. The men from Mexico were really hard workers. The others, well let’s say they showed up. There was never the same crew. Men kept being pulled off of our job to go work on others. I took pics of some of the younger guys on their phones laying in the neighbors grass and it wasn’t lunch time. Two hour lunches and then the guys would sit in the truck from about 3:15 or so and drive off at 4:00. We had to finally ask them to clean up their bottles/trash because it was out of hand. My flower beds only had about 4 inches of soil. The “top supreme” soil was a mixture of clay/dirt. The ground cracks if not watered daily. Some days there was only one young man working. For over $100k, we expect better. Wouldn’t hire them to mow my lawn."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

The best fertilizer for your lawn contains a balance of the nutrients your grass needs for long-term health. A soil test can tell you the optimum nutrient balance. However, to repair yellow grass quickly, assuming all it needs is fertilizer, apply a nitrogen-rich blend that promotes fast growth.

Look for a broadleaf herbicide, one that has been formulated specifically for dandelions and is considered grass-safe.

Some of the particular herbicides that work best to get rid of nut grass without killing the grass include Halosulfuron-methyl, mesotrione, sulfentrazone, and metsulfuron. A herbicide like glyphosate would kill nutgrass, but it will kill nearby plants, too.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

One of the best ways to soften your grass and prepare it for planting grass seed is aeration. Aerating your lawn will loosen up compacted soil and facilitate a more even balance of nutrients from root to topsoil. We recommend using core aeration methods for the most effective soil-loosening results.
