EXISTING LAWN RENOVATION

Is your lawn in need of repair or renovation? Over time insects, disease and poor soil conditions can combine to degrade the quality of your lawn. Restoring your lawn may not be as expensive as you think. Most existing lawns do not need to be torn up and replaced as many people think. In most cases slice seeding or topdressing will repair the damaged areas without costly removal and regrading.

CHOOSE TOPDRESSING IF YOUR LAWN HAS…
…more than 50% grass coverage and the weeds are not severe. Your lawn will be aerated and topdressing with a ½ to 1 inch layer of compost and seed. Late summer or early fall is an excellent time to choose this option. The process involves giving the lawn good core aeration then applying approximately a 1 inch layer of compost utilizing our custom blower truck. This is a time- tested method used by golf course superintendents to improve the quality of their greens and tees, and it will work equally well on your home lawn. Top dressing is less costly and will generate similar result to total lawn renovation at a fraction of the cost. SEE PRICE SHEET BELOW

CHOOSE SLICE SEEDING IF YOUR LAWN HAS….. Good soils, light weed cover and no large bare areas. Slice seeding is a cost effective way to improve your lawn. Small furrows are sliced into your existing turf and seed is dropped directly into the furrows. Fertilizer and soil amendments are then applied to the surface as needed to achieve the proper conditions for good seed germination. There is no costly and unsightly digging and within a few weeks new grass seedlings will begin to fill in thin and bare areas. This is our least costly method of lawn renovation and is commonly used by turf professionals to thicken turf on sports fields without disturbing the playing surface. SEE PRICE SHEET BELOW

Compost can be installed quickly and easily, even in hard to reach areas, such as gated back yards, terraces or even rooftop planters. Grading is accomplished without the complications associated with unneeded compaction from bulldozers or Bobcats.
