What is xeriscaping?
Xeriscaping is a style of landscaping where plants and other elements that require little to no water are incorporated into the landscape. This helps minimize the need for routine watering and is particularly beneficial for those who live in drought-prone areas.
How often should you water your lawn?
How often you need to water your lawn depends on the temperature outside. A general guideline to follow is:
• 60 Degrees or Lower: 1-2 times a week
• 70-80 Degrees: 3 times a week
• 90 Degrees or Higher: 3-4 times a week
When is the best time to install sod?
The best time to install sod is during the growing season. The growing season is from the early spring to early fall time. Soil conditions during this time are damp and soft, making it easy to plant and has ample nutrients for growth.
Do I need to be home when you are doing the landscaping work?
No, you do not need to be home while we do our work. The only time you will need to be home is if we do not have access to your property and you must let us into the yard.
What is AstroTurf?
ButtonAstroTurf is an artificial grass product that is made from nylon and vinyl. It resembles the look of natural grass but is often used for athletic fields and patios.
Is sod the same as artificial turf?
No, sod is not the same as artificial turf. Sod is living grass that has been grown, harvested, and easily transplanted.
Why should I aerate my lawn?
Over time, your lawn’s soil will be compacted from people constantly walking on it and using heavy lawn care equipment. When the soil is compacted, it can make it different for water and nutrients to get distributed throughout the lawn and thus lead to issues with grass growth. Aerating your lawn will help loosen the soil, promoting the free flow of water and nutrients throughout your lawn, helping it stay healthy.
