Pat's Lawn Care - Texarkana's Best Landscapers

Patchy grass in our area is often due to soil compaction, poor irrigation, or thin turf. The best fix starts with aeration to relieve compaction, followed by overseeding with a grass blend suited for Texarkana's climate, and finally, adjusting your irrigation to ensure consistent, deep watering without creating runoff. We can assess your specific lawn to create a tailored recovery plan.

A simple 'tuna can test' is a great start: place empty cans around your lawn, run your sprinklers for a set time, and measure the water in each. Uneven amounts indicate gaps. In Texarkana, common signs are dry, brown strips between green areas or water pooling in some spots but not others. We offer professional irrigation audits to map your coverage and recommend precise adjustments or upgrades.

In Texarkana, it's often both. Poor water distribution from irrigation gaps leads to dry areas, but the underlying soil in those spots may also be compacted or nutrient-deficient, preventing grass from establishing. We solve this by first correcting the irrigation pattern to ensure even water delivery, then treating the soil in problem areas with aeration and targeted amendments to support healthy new growth.
