Get Professional Help with Lawn Installation: Barnegat
Installing a lawn is a complex process that requires planning, preparation, and a series of specific steps. Many homeowners underestimate how much work it takes and how difficult it can be. Contact Leary’s Landscaping for help with professional lawn installation: Barnegat.
Types of Lawn You Can Install
Sod: This is a common choice among homeowners because it can be rolled out and is easy to install and maintain. Since sod has tight roots, weeds have a hard time growing. Sod costs more than a seeded lawn, and it may be more likely to develop disease.
To install sod, our team will first remove debris and rake the lawn. After the edging has been installed, we will add topsoil and compost, grade the surface, and apply lime, fertilizer, and other amendments, based on the results of a soil test. Then we will lay the sod. It will need a lot of watering in the weeks after installation.
Hydroseeding: This method can be used to quickly spread grass seed, which makes it a good option if you have a large lawn. To hydroseed, we will follow the same steps that we would use to prepare to install a sod lawn. We will mix seed, mulch, water, and fertilizer with an agitator and spray the slurry on the lawn. We will then rake the soil and spread a light layer of straw to give the seeds nutrients and to keep them warm. The lawn should be watered frequently.
Hand seeding: You can do this yourself and choose the type of grass seed. The downside is that if you don’t take the appropriate steps to prevent weeds, you may have a problem on your hands and may have to hire a professional to get rid of them. A hand seeded lawn is hard to maintain in a way that keeps away patches, pests, diseases, and weeds.
