How much does hydroseeding cost compared to other lawn options?

Hydroseeding is usually cheaper than sod but a bit more expensive than traditional seeding. However, it grows faster and more evenly than regular seeding, giving you better value for your money. We'd be happy to provide a free quote for your specific property.

Can I walk on my lawn after hydroseeding? When is it safe?

It's best to stay off your new lawn for about 2-3 weeks after hydroseeding. This gives the seeds time to germinate and take root. After that, light foot traffic is okay, but try to limit heavy use for another 2-3 weeks.

What if it rains right after you hydroseed my lawn?

A little rain is actually good for your new hydroseeded lawn! Our mix includes a special "tackifier" that helps it stick to the soil, so light to moderate rain won't wash it away. Heavy downpours within the first 24-48 hours could be an issue, but don't worry - we always check the forecast before we schedule your job.

Do I need to water a hydroseeded lawn? How often?

Yes, watering is crucial for the first few weeks. We recommend light, frequent watering - about 2-3 times a day for the first week, then gradually less as the grass establishes. We'll give you a detailed watering schedule when we finish the job.

Will hydroseeding work if I have pets or kids who play in the yard?

Absolutely! Once your lawn is established (usually after 4-6 weeks), it'll be tough enough to handle pets and playtime. Just remember to keep them off the lawn during the initial growing period.

Is hydroseeding suitable for all types of soil found in Columbus?

Yes, hydroseeding works well with most soil types in Columbus. Our soil test helps us adjust the mix to suit your specific soil conditions, ensuring the best results for your lawn.

Can you hydroseed over existing grass or do I need to remove it first?

For best results, we recommend removing or killing existing grass before hydroseeding. This gives the new grass the best chance to establish without competition. We can help with this process if needed.

How long does a hydroseeded lawn last? Will I need to reseed next year?

A properly maintained hydroseeded lawn can last for many years. You shouldn't need to reseed next year unless there's damage from extreme weather or heavy use. With good care, your lawn will keep getting thicker and healthier each year.

What's the best time of year to hydroseed in Columbus?

The best times are typically early spring (April to May) or early fall (September to early October). These seasons offer ideal temperatures and natural rainfall for seed germination. However, we can successfully hydroseed during other times too - just ask us about the best timing for your specific project. Remember, we're always here to answer any other questions you might have about your hydroseeding project. Just give us a call!
