August 3, 2010 - Greener lawn repair
Our service continues to become greener as our services expand. We found this elegant electric tiller at the Home Depot that plugs into our portable solar power generator which produces clean renewable energy to tear up this customers dried, cinch bug infested lawn. Brian is shown here at the beginning of this 900 sq.ft. lawn repair. Once he’s finished tearing up the old grass, we will dispose of the old lawn, put down a layer of fresh triple mix soil, then lay fresh sod and soak it right through with water. Of course, it is important for the customer to continue watering for 14 days in order for the new sod to take.
That is definitely a dirty job but I guess someone has to do it right? How long does a normal lawn work takes and do you have to get permits to dig up someone’s lawn?
We love doing lawn repairs. There’s nothing like a brand new lawn with fresh sod. It usually takes 1-2 days depending on how large of an area we have to cover. We do not require permits, however we do call the city and have the locates done on where the gas line or phone lines are buried for safety reasons.
