LAWN CARE AND RE-SODDING IN TORONTO
Sometimes we find that we can rescue your surviving lawn by repairing your existing irrigation system so that the sprinklers or drip and spray heads can regularly water your grass again and it has a chance to recover.
But in many cases where we are called in to install a new irrigation and sprinkler system we find that the grass is in rough shape to begin with.
Our re-sodding process
First we remove the old sod so that we can easily and strategically install the vinyl irrigation piping and sprinklers where they will effectively reach all parts of your grass. Then we put down a good layer of fertile new soil and finally comes the healthy new Kentucky Bluegrass sod planted on the top. We get our sod directly from the sod farm to ensure its quality and freshness.
Finally we switch on your new irrigation system and within just days you’ll find your new lawn readily starts to flourish and the first delicate green shoots of your healthy new grass will start to appear.
Advantages of Kentucky Bluegrass
We generally use Kentucky Bluegrass to re-sod your lawns because it is extremely drought resistant and will quickly regenerate once it is watered.
Kentucky Bluegrass is a very popular species of cool-season lawn grass that is ideal for the Toronto area thanks to its aggressive growing mechanism which, at the first signs of water, enables it to quickly generate an extensive underground system of rhizomes (growing stems) that rapidly spread to damaged areas so that your lawn soon self-repairs.
This means that you’ll probably never have to reseed and that even if at some point in the future you lawn is once again drought-afflicted it will probably quickly recover once you get the water situation resolved.
How to maintain your Toronto lawn
Lawns need at least a couple of inches of water every week if they are to thrive and provide the glorious green expanse of healthy grass that you are looking for.
This is particularly important in summer when lack of rainfall can quickly dry up your lawn leaving it looking dead and unattractive.
This is why artificial irrigation is so important for keeping your grass looking verdant and green.
Northern Lights and Rainmakers Inc. manual and automatic irrigation installations will enable you to maintain your garden, landscapes and yards to keep them looking verdant and healthy throughout the year.
Besides competitive installation, maintenance and repair prices, we also install the most water efficient irrigation systems available so that your outdoor areas can thrive while keeping your water and energy bills to the minimum.
