Hi. I'm Gabe Berardi. Since 1998, Berardi Irrigation has been installing and servicing irrigation systems for commercial, residential, and golf course applications. Installation is a major part of our business but it’s not everything. Berardi Irrigation has a strong focus on personal service, water consumption, reliability, and superior design. After the appointment for a free estimate has been set, Gabe will personally walk your property, designing a system which will best fit your yard’s needs. Gabe will also describe how he arrived at the personal quote which is delivered on site. He will also be happy to explain exactly what you are getting and address any questions or concerns you may have. Gabe may even suggest the “separate meter option” which is allowed in some towns and can save you money on water in the long run.

"No complaints on anything. I continue to use this company for spring/fall prep and updates to my system"

"Roberto’s did a fantastic job! I would highly recommend them. They were responsive and even came by on the same day to review the project. Jose was attentive to our wishes and made some insightful suggestions that we absolutely agreed with. His team came the very next day to remove the grass that had died during our exterior remodel. They thoroughly prepared the yard and took care not to disturb our existing plants. They approached the work thoughtfully and carefully. They then came back and did a masterful job of installing sod, cobblestone edging, and gravel installation into our planter beds. The yard looks amazing and we were thrilled with their work. I’d definitely bring them back to do any further work needed."

"We had Oscar come to to grade our yard and install a short retaining wall. The price was very reasonable and they were very friendly throughout the process. There were however some parts of the job that we were not super happy about. We asked to have the wall slightly extended after they started digging out, which added a small cost (the cost being totally understandable). The extended section of the wall however is not level at all with the rest of the wall. The biggest part that we were unhappy with was the fill used for the grading. Initially I noticed a large pile of concrete/debris being delivered in the yard. I specifically addressed this stating that we were not comfortable using that as fill given the small depth of the area. After being told it would not be used, we have noticed large (bigger than my head for size reference) pieces of asphalt, huge chunks of glass, and pieces of metal and plastic all throughout the area. To call any of that appropriate for "top soil" would be insane. With a dog and a toddler running around that area, the amount of glass is VERY dangerous. The overall area we had graded was large, but not very deep so all the stones, asphalt, glass, and other debris isn't buried very deep down at all and large surface area."

FAQs for lawn dethatching projects in Canton, MA

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.
