A well-manicured lawn is an integral part of the landscape of both homes and businesses. It gives curb appeal and a sense of uniformity and consistency to the surrounding landscape.

The length of the grass determines how well it will grow, and also how well it is protected against various pests and the elements. 
Retaining walls can add depth and great vistas to any home or business with beautiful stonework, opening up new possibilities for landscaping.

Today we’ll look at the most commonly installed system: the lawn sprinkler system, and see how they work and why they are a good fit for most irrigation needs. 
Your lawn is a living thing, and like all living things, it feeds. Your grass consumes nutrients from the soil for growth, coloration, and root strength. However, these nutrients are both finite and water soluble. As your lawn continues to grow throughout the seasons, it will gradually degrade in quality. Colors will fade, brown spots will form from poor root structure, and it will be harder to maintain. This is the key of seasonal lawn fertilization: to reintroduce these nutrients to the soil so your lawn can thrive.
