Small Lots, Thick Lawns
Hydroseeding in Plainville is often small-yard work. The town covers just 9.8 square miles, and 61 percent of its housing is single-unit, with 68 percent of residents owning their homes. Compact lots need care that larger properties do not: tight access, neighbors close by, and little room for stockpiles of soil.
Repairs rather than whole lawns
Many Plainville jobs are partial: a section torn up by a new septic or sewer line, a strip beside a new driveway, a backyard cleared of an old pool. Hydroseed matches better than patches of sod in these cases because the new grass fills in from seed alongside the existing lawn.
Pequabuck River
The Pequabuck River played a crucial role in Plainville's development. It runs about 19 miles from Harwinton to the Farmington River in Farmington. Yards near the river and its low ground need grading that sends water away from foundations, and silt fence during any work that drains toward the water.
Ridge to the east
The east side of town is bordered by Pinnacle Rock and Bradley Mountain, two peaks of the Metacomet Ridge. Homes near their base deal with runoff from above. A swale or regrade often has to come before the new lawn.

Plainville Questions
Can you seed just the strip torn up by my sewer line?
Yes. We regrade, add topsoil if needed and hydroseed so the patch blends in as it grows.
Our access is a narrow side gate. Can you still hydroseed?
Usually yes, since the hose runs through the gate. Topsoil delivery may need smaller equipment.
We removed an old pool. How do we get grass back?
The hole needs proper fill and compaction, then topsoil, grading and seeding.
Water from the ridge flows into our yard. What do you suggest?
A swale or regrade along the uphill side to direct water around the house, then seed the disturbed area.
How close can you work to my neighbor's lawn without making a mess?
We spray carefully along property lines and can lower the pressure or hand-seed the last strip near a fence or driveway. The slurry has a green dye so you can see exactly where it landed, and any overspray on hard surfaces rinses off with water.
