When little kids are coloring and it’s time to do the grass, they don’t grab the brown crayon.
Even preschoolers know grass is supposed to be green.
When you look out at your once-thriving lawn and see brown, it’s time to grab your green crayons. (If only it were that easy, right?)
Dead grass? Here’s how to fix it.
Every homeowner faces a few bare spots once in a while. A proper seeding with quality grass seed can often do the trick.
If you have large areas of dead grass, or a whole yard to repair, you can go with plugs, seed, or replace it with sod.
You can tackle it yourself (cue your favorite pain reliever and swear words) or hire pro sod installers who are expert in fixing dead grass.
Sometimes, the best thing to do is start over, with a fresh sod lawn that turns that dead grass into instant green. Almost as fast as crayons.
Repair your lawn all you want, but if your lawn doesn’t get enough water, it’ll keep dying.
If you have an irrigation system, is it working properly?
Maybe your grass died because your irrigation system valves are leaking. Or the nozzles are clogged. Or some spray heads are broken.
You get the idea. A lot can go wrong out there.
If you set up an irrigation maintenance program to stay ahead of repairs, you’ll save yourself from constantly fixing dead grass.
Schedule regular irrigation inspections and technicians can often spot the little issues that can lead to bigger problems later, from cracked lines and leaky valves to clogged nozzles or broken spray heads.
It doesn’t take long for a healthy green lawn or landscape to turn brown and die without enough water.
If you’re fixing dead grass by replacing it with sod, be sure your irrigation system is running smoothly before that sod installation.
New sod needs lots of water over the first few weeks and months. You don’t want to find out after your new sod is down that you have broken heads, a zone that doesn’t work, or controller problems.
You want to know that now, so you can have any problems repaired before your sod delivery.
Fixing dead grass can be time consuming and a hassle, especially if you have a whole yard to repair.
