Conservation is in our name, in our culture, and in our commitment to our clients. Conserva Irrigation® proudly specializes in commercial and residential irrigation services and solutions that help alleviate the billions of gallons of water wasted every day due to irrigation system runoff. When you choose our eco-friendly services, you can save money, conserve water, and maintain a beautiful lawn all at the same time. Did you know that, out of all the water the average home uses every day, more than half of it is consumed by irrigation systems? This means that your sprinkler system likely accounts for more than half the cost of your water bill.

"Very pleased with their work. Very professional. I recommend them 100%."

Well thanks to Mower Doctor the grass has been cut twice(Liam sharpened the blade) and they will be called when needed. Love the fact they come to the house and you're not paying a huge pickup fee."

I offer a complete service for the person who needs spring start ups,system trouble shooting,valve repair,heads moved, clocks reprogrammed, leaks repaired, zones added or removed. I am a full service and reliable company.fair and competative pricing. Quality service with. 18 years of experience.

"Vernon talked a great game but his workmanship was poor. Partway through the project I discovered that the sprinkler lines were not properly buried. Most of them were just under peeled back grass and some spots were still visible on the surface. I had been very clear that the lines needed to be buried below the depth of penetration for a lawn aerator. When I complained he gave a variety of defenses including that the lines would sink into the ground with snowfall, that an aerator could not penetrate the plastic pipe, and that my lawn would not need aerating. Also more than half of the sprinkler heads were sticking up more than 3 inches out of the turf and at risk of being destroyed by a lawn mower. I had to reinstall most of what he did. If you hire him I would advise having everything specified in writing and monitoring his workmanship very closely."

Lawn dethatching services FAQs

Dethatching machines look like lawnmowers but have blades that cut down in crisscrossing motions. This action loosens the thatch, which is then raked up separately and removed. You might see some dethatching machines with rake-like tines. These often do not offer the best experience compared to those with blades.

You should fertilize your lawn after dethatching. This gives the damaged grass a solid nutrient boost to aid quick recovery, helping your lawn to grow back greener and stronger. Fertilizing before dethatching wastes your time, money, and energy and may even damage your lawn.

Yes, dethatching is worth it if you've got a thick thatch layer. Grab a trowel, dig up a small section of soil and grass, and check how thick the thatch layer is. If it's an inch or more, and you're noticing problems like thinning grass, weak, patchy grass, or pale coloring, it could be time to dethatch to restore health and vigor.

The cost to reseed a lawn typically ranges from $400 to $1,800. The total price often depends on the size of your lawn and the type of service needed.
