Patchy grass here is often due to poor soil, pests, or incorrect watering. We start with a soil test to check pH and nutrients, then recommend aeration and overseeding with a grass type suited for our area, like a durable St. Augustine variety. Proper irrigation adjustment is key to ensure new growth thrives in our Florida sun.

Absolutely. Outdated or incorrectly programmed timers are a common issue that wastes water and harms lawns. We upgrade and program irrigation timers—or install smart controllers—to align with local watering restrictions and seasonal changes. This ensures your lawn gets the right amount of water efficiently, saving you money and promoting healthier grass.

The most crucial tip is to adapt your watering schedule with the seasons. In our hot, rainy summers, timers often need less runtime. In the drier winter and spring, they may need adjustment. A well-maintained and properly scheduled irrigation system is the foundation for preventing both patchy grass and high water bills year-round.
