Grass seeding services – which is best for your property?

If you were to walk past a street of residential properties, the first thing that would usually catch your eye is the grass. The grass is the introduction to the property itself, and if it is looking dry and brittle, it does not give the property a very good first impression. But before you begin to blame the homeowners for the terrible state of their grass, it may not actually be their fault! If they were not given helpful lawn care maintenance by the person who laid their grass, or even if it was laid incorrectly, this may be the cause for their unhealthy grass. If this sounds similar to your situation, and you\’d like to get luscious green grass that all your neighbours will envy, have a think about the following grass seed applications…

A common application \’spray-on grass\’ (which is also referred to as hydro-seeding) is where a jet sprayer sprays seeds directly onto soil. Rather than scattering seeds by hand, spray-on grass distributes the seeds evenly over the soil. This also creates a \’sown-in-lawn\’, meaning that (unlike some other methods) there is no chance of the seeds not taking to the soil.

Terraseeding (also known as raked in grass seeds) involves completely covering the desired area with a new layer of soil that is already full of evenly distributed grass seeds.

Another option for healthy, luscious lawns is grass seed wool blankets. These wool blankets already contain the grass seeds, and they are laid onto the property area. As well holding water (to help with growth), the blankets offer an ideal protection for the seeds.

The final option for grass seeding applications is instant roll on grass – also known as readylawn. Although this is a more expensive option that other types of grass seeding applications, readylawn offers instant results, which is ideal if you are in a hurry to have new grass in your property.

There are a number of grass application methods out there, but only a few may be best suited to your lawn. Contact a lawn care professional to meet on site your property so that they can let you know what application is most ideal for your property.
