Lawn Care

We invest in your lawn's total health with custom treatment plans that start deep below the soil.

If you squint, you can imagine your scraggly, brown lawn as a green,  cushy blanket for spur-of-the-moment picnics, hammock lounging, kid frolicking, firefly watching.

We’ll get you there. But we go even deeper.

The thing about that emerald green lawn you love is that it starts way below the surface. You can’t even see the most important part of your lawn.

That’s where we get to work, offering lawn care services in Minneapolis, MN and Eau Claire, WI that bring struggling lawns to life.

Here’s how we can help you:

  • Add organic-based fertilizer for a greener and healthier lawn
  • Get rid of weeds and crabgrass
  • Protect your lawn from insects and grubs
  • Aerate the lawn to improve your soil
  • Overseed your lawn to fill in thin areas
  • Apply materials to correct soil pH issues

You’re in Good Hands

Maybe you’ve considered tackling your lawn care yourself. Honestly, it’s kind of a pain. All the bags piled up in your garage, all the dates to keep track of, equipment to maintain. If you don’t apply fertilizer or weed killer correctly, you can actually damage your lawn. We see this a lot. We send trained lawn care technicians to your property — not just guys with sprayers full of weed killer.When we’re on the job, you can relax. There might be room in the garage now for a new motorcycle.

Experience That Shows in Every Yard

The Environment Matters

You want a healthy green lawn, but you care about the rest of the environment, too. We’re in this together. We don’t just blanket your lawn with chemicals if it doesn’t really need it. Maybe all you need is a targeted spot treatment that will take care of that pesky problem area that drives you crazy. No overkill.

Pamper Your Lawn, from the Roots Up

A thick, green lawn is all about the roots and the soil. If they’re healthy, your lawn will be, too. Maybe it needs a boost of iron, magnesium or humic acid. Or some nice, rich organic matter. We go beyond the big three of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium to really target your lawn’s unique needs. (We’re actually phosphorus free, to protect our precious waterways.) You just prep the picnic.

Wave Bye to Weeds

Life’s too short for weed stress. So, stop them before they sprout. Once you have weeds, you’re too embarrassed to invite friends over and you avoid the neighbors because you’re making the whole block look bad. Let’s create a custom nutrition plan for your lawn, so the roots will be nourished, the soil packed with nutrients, and your grass so thick and healthy, weeds won’t stand a chance.

FAQs

Have questions?

How much does an irrigation system cost?

The cost of an irrigation system varies greatly depending on the size of your lawn, the amount of landscaping you have, the size of your home, grade and other issues. The only way for us to give an accurate estimate is to come to your location for an estimate, which we will happily do if you contact us.

Does a lawn irrigation system really save water?

If you water your lawn regularly, then yes, absolutely. Most hose-end sprinklers allow for more water than is necessary and don't do as well to evenly distribute the water based on the distance they are required to cover. As such, people who use hose-end sprinklers tend to waste water through needing to overlap areas, water their street and driveway, the side of their home, etc. An irrigation system has heads with a more even distribution. Timer-based early morning watering results in less evaporation and loss to wind. There is very little overlap, and the multiple heads with diverse controls means no water wasted on sidewalks, driveways, roads, etc. Of course, your system must be programmed properly, which we would help you do.

I have a nice lawn. How much damage will you do putting in an irrigation system?

We'll do less damage to your lawn than the local cable company does when laying cable to your home. We are extremely careful and have the right trenching equipment to make sure your lawn and topsoil is returned and unscathed by our process. You'll never know we've been there (except for never having to worry about watering your lawn again, that is!), and within a couple of weeks, your lawn will look better than ever!

I have a well. Can I still get an irrigation system?

Absolutely. In fact, we strongly suggest it to help further control your water usage.

Will I need to raise my lawnmower setting to avoid doing damage to the sprinklers?

No you shouldn't. At rest, sprinkler heads sit barely above ground level. The only thing we would suggest is to check your sprinkler heads before mowing to make sure they have all dropped. Sometimes dirt or other obstructions can stop them from dropping back down. If there is an obstruction, see if you can gently clear it away. No sprinkler head should be forced down, so if you have trouble, we suggest you call us.

What's the difference between a spray head and a rotary (or rotor) head?

A spray sprinkler head has a high application rate, which means it discharges a large amount of water in a short period of time. They are most often used on flat surface lawns where water applies will not run but rather soak in. The benefit of these heads is that you will require shorter periods of time to water. A rotary sprinkler head has a lower application rate, which means that even on sloped ground, you will not waste water by it running down the hill. However, rotor sprinkler heads mean a single application will take longer.

Does soil type affect lawn irrigation systems?

Yes. For example, if you have sandy soil, you will need to water more often. However, if you water too much at once, you'll waste water since, because of the porous nature of the soil, water will run right past the root system before it can be taken in by your lawn. In contrast, a soil rich in clay should be watered less frequently since it has a high water retention rate. If you water too much, you can drown your grass roots. For these and many more reasons, RainMaster takes special time to examine your lawn's slope, soil type, and many more factors before coming up with the right design for your irrigation system. Trust us, though, we'll set up the perfect system for your location and help you program the proper water treatment. We take all pertinent factors into account when designing a new system.

What happens if we aren't home and it rains?

Our irrigation systems all come with rain sensors, so you have no worries. Your irrigation system will always monitor the amount of rain your lawn receives and only water when it is needed.
