Promote thick, healthy grass with our expert seeding services. Whether you’re starting a new lawn or filling in patchy areas, we use high-quality seeds and proven techniques to ensure even germination and strong root development. Our seeding solutions improve lawn density, prevent erosion, and create a more resilient turf for long-term beauty.
Establishing a lush, vibrant lawn doesn’t always require a full renovation. Grass seeding is a highly effective and cost-efficient method for building turf density, repairing patchy areas, and revitalizing weakened or damaged lawns. Whether you’re maintaining a home lawn, managing a large commercial property, or looking to improve the landscape of a public facility, professional seeding helps ensure uniform, long-lasting growth.
At Lorenzo Lawncare & Landscaping, we provide expert grass seeding services tailored to the unique conditions of each property. Our process is guided by turf science and supported by decades of experience, ensuring healthy root development, strong grass coverage, and sustainable lawn improvement over time.
While sodding provides an instant lawn, seeding offers a different set of long-term advantages. It allows grass to grow naturally within your specific soil conditions, resulting in deeper root systems and better adaptation to the environment. Seeding is ideal for lawns suffering from thinning grass, high foot traffic, pest damage, or environmental stress such as drought or poor drainage.
A well-seeded lawn develops slowly but yields long-term benefits, including stronger resistance to weeds, diseases, and seasonal challenges.
We follow a detailed, step-by-step approach to ensure your lawn receives the best possible conditions for seed germination and turf establishment.
The first step in any successful seeding project is proper site preparation. Our team removes dead grass, weeds, and surface debris to create a clean slate. We then loosen compacted soil and level the ground to ensure even growth and drainage.
We also perform soil tests when necessary, adjusting pH levels and applying amendments such as lime, compost, or starter fertilizers to support early root development.
Grass seed selection is not one-size-fits-all. We match the seed variety to your property’s sun exposure, soil conditions, usage patterns, and local climate. For commercial properties with high foot traffic or shade challenges, we recommend durable, shade-tolerant varieties. For residential clients looking for low-maintenance options, drought-resistant blends may be appropriate.
We work with both cool-season and warm-season grass varieties, offering flexibility based on your lawn’s specific needs.
Using commercial-grade spreaders and overseeding equipment, we apply seed evenly across the prepared area. We take care to calibrate the application rate to ensure uniform density and minimize overcrowding. Where needed, we apply a protective layer of mulch, straw, or compost to retain moisture, protect against erosion, and discourage birds from disturbing the seed.
We lightly rake the surface to enhance seed-to-soil contact and improve germination success.
Water is critical in the early stages of lawn establishment. We provide clients with a custom watering schedule tailored to weather conditions and soil type. Regular, light watering is essential to keep the soil consistently moist—but not saturated—during the germination period.
We also offer recommendations for first mowing, starter fertilization, and weed prevention to ensure the seed develops into strong, established turf.
Grass seeding offers a range of benefits for both residential and commercial lawn care clients:
We time seeding services to coincide with ideal growing conditions to maximize results.
Proper aftercare is crucial for successful germination and growth. We advise clients to keep the soil consistently moist until seeds have fully sprouted. Mowing should be delayed until new grass reaches about three inches in height. Fertilizer can be applied approximately one month after seeding to support continued development. Herbicides should be avoided until the grass is well-established to prevent stress on young plants.
Our seeding services are built on decades of expertise and a commitment to precision. We take the time to assess each lawn, recommend the most appropriate seed varieties, and ensure proper soil preparation and application. From residential yards to expansive commercial grounds, we help our clients achieve long-term success through professional seeding methods and dependable aftercare support.
