Murphs Landscaping | Trusted Landscapers in Virginia Beach, VA

Common signs include soggy patches, unusually high water bills, low water pressure in the system, or visible spraying/misting. In our sandy Virginia Beach soil, leaks can quickly erode areas and waste hundreds of gallons. We recommend addressing any suspected leak immediately to prevent water waste, damage to your lawn's root system, and higher utility costs. Our team can perform a pressure check and inspection to pinpoint and repair leaks efficiently.

Brown patches, rings, or slimy grass are often signs of fungal diseases like brown patch or dollar spot, which are prevalent here due to our humidity. Correct diagnosis is key, as treatments vary. We'll examine the grass, soil conditions, and irrigation practices. Treatment typically involves a targeted fungicide application and cultural advice, such as adjusting your mowing height or watering schedule to reduce moisture and prevent recurrence.

Absolutely. A healthy lawn is the best defense. We focus on building resilience through core aeration to reduce soil compaction, proper fertilization tailored to Virginia Beach's soil, and overseeding with disease-resistant grass varieties suited for our region. We also optimize your irrigation system to water deeply and infrequently, which strengthens roots and creates a less hospitable environment for fungus while conserving water.
