Landscaping Services North Chicago IL | Call Jays Landscaping

Dead patches in our area are often caused by compacted soil, fungal disease, improper watering from faulty sprinklers, or pet damage. Jays Landscaping starts with a thorough diagnosis to identify the root cause. We then perform core aeration, overseed with hardy grass blends suited to our local climate, and adjust your irrigation to ensure proper coverage, reviving your lawn efficiently.

Absolutely. We specialize in locating and repairing sprinkler leaks, whether from broken heads, cracked pipes, or faulty valves—common problems after our freeze-thaw cycles. Our repair service includes a full system pressure check and head alignment. To prevent future leaks, we recommend and provide an end-of-season winterization service to properly drain your system, protecting it from winter damage.

Consistent, seasonally-aware care is key. We recommend a program of spring aeration and fertilization, summer mowing at the proper height with sharp blades, and fall overseeding to thicken the turf. Most importantly, ensuring your irrigation system is leak-free and properly calibrated for even watering is crucial, especially during dry spells. Jays Landscaping offers maintenance plans tailored to the North Chicago climate to keep your lawn resilient.
