Siteone Landscape Supply - Tacoma's Top-Rated Landscaping

For Tacoma's climate, the best approach is to address the underlying soil and choose the right grass. We recommend testing your soil's pH and nutrient levels, then amending it with a high-quality topsoil or compost. We can help you select a durable, shade-tolerant sod or seed blend suited for our region. Proper aeration and consistent watering are key to successful repair and preventing future dead spots.

Gaps in coverage often come from poor head placement, incorrect nozzle types, or low water pressure. Our irrigation experts can help you audit your system. We carry a wide range of spray heads, rotors, and pressure-regulating parts to fine-tune your setup. Often, simply adjusting or replacing a few key components can create a uniform spray pattern that eliminates dry areas and conserves water.

For a healthy Tacoma lawn, focus on core seasonal tasks. Key supplies include a balanced, slow-release fertilizer for spring and fall feedings, a core aerator to relieve soil compaction, a durable rake for dethatching, and a sharp mower blade set to the proper height (usually 2.5-3 inches for our grasses). We also recommend a soil moisture meter to guide your watering schedule, helping you avoid both over and under-watering.
