What Does it Mean to Renovate Your Lawn?

Did you recently have a significant construction done in your residence that affected your beautiful lawn? If your grass is starting to look brownish and losing its vibrant summer green color, you may want to consider a lawn renovation or sodding.

What is lawn renovation?

Renovating your lawn means you're going to try to grow new grass or reseed it so your turf can look fresh again. Sure, it sounds like a lot of work, but the result, in the long run, will be worth it.

There are a few different ways to renovate your lawn, and how you'll do it depends on the current condition of your yard. Topdressing and aeration can be an option if you want to revitalize your turf's soil while providing an excellent seedbed with organic matter.

Sodding, on the other hand, is among the popular options to revive and have a healthy lawn quickly. If you opt and plan to put in new sod, you need to remove any old sod or weeds first. You then need to till the soil and then apply fertilizer. Coupled with an in ground sprinkler system, it can help bring your lawn back to its full rigor and vitality as soon as you know it.

If you opt for total lawn renovation, it will take weeks from start to finish to see the results. The lawn renovation process may or may not be limited to:

• Thoroughly exterminating the existing lawn
• Mowing and raking to make sure all dead debris is removed from the soil
• Scalping the lawn
