Because each job takes a different amount of time to complete, it is impossible to give an accurate estimated time of arrival. Our technicians work sometimes until dark, so you can count on your service being performed on the day it is scheduled. If you plan to be home on the day of service you can give any special instructions to the worker at that time. See similar questions...

Tall Fescue is the most popular turfgrass in the mid-Atlantic region. It is a very adaptable grass, which grows in full sun or part shade.

We recommend aeration every two years. Aerating will help a thin lawn by opening up the soil so root development is easier. It also helps a thick lawn open up and breathe. In either case, it allows our products to get to the root system and work better. We prefer to aerate at the same time as your third application. Ideally it is done during the rainy season so watering to "prep" the lawn isn't necessary. See similar questions...

GERMINATION: Under ideal conditions, hulled seeds can germinate within 3 to 7 days. IF conditions are NOT ideal, it is quite normal for Bermuda seeds to take 14 to 21 days for germination to occur. Occasionally it can take even longer. Seedlings are very small when they first emerge and require careful inspection to observe. Under ideal conditions, it is possible for Bermuda's to establish from seed within about 5-6 weeks to provide a limited / usable turf. See similar questions...

Positively and without a doubt you can grow it from seed. Be my guest. Astoria, Highland, Penn-cross, or Seaside bents all can be grown from sown seed. Before tackling a bent lawn, though, make sure you understand that they take a ton of work and a special mower. What do you mean all? There’s perennial or annual. If you’re talking about brand names; they’re improved varieties of the same two. See similar questions...

Ensure your grass is cut short enough (but not scalped) to prevent it from "laying over" under deep snow cover. A 2 to 2-1/2 inch cutting height should be sufficient. It's actually best to gradually lower your cutting height over the final three cuts of the year, instead of trying to do it all in one final cut. Shorter grass is less likely to suffer from snow mold disease. See similar questions...

JSA: Not necessarily. If you already have access to at least the inlet and outlet lids of your septic tank, digging up your lawn will not be necessary. If there is no access to the lid of the septic tank, some digging may be necessary to expose the ports so that the hose can be inserted to remove the septic material. At this time it would be wise to install risers so that digging would not be necessary the next time pumping is required. See similar questions...

Ideally, we recommend watering your lawn if it does not rain within 24 hours of our visit. Don’t worry if this is not possible – it will just take longer for your treatment to take effect. See similar questions...
