Old vegetation removal and grading pricing

Wed July 29, 2020, 07:02:40 AM by turfworxhydroseeding | Views: 98 | Comments: 0

Morning all, we have recently been getting interest in a lot of people wanting to hydro seeding their yard but still have grass and want some grading(fill in holes, level yard a little better, etc) as well. How do you all price grading and old grass removal? Our downfall is we do not own a skid steer just yet so we have to rent one which is $350ish a day. I just didnt know if you were pricing by sq ft or by hour? Any help would be appreciated.

Nozzle selection?

Wed July 29, 2020, 01:23:37 AM by EvergreenD | Views: 427 | Comments: 16

Hi everyone, I'm new to hydroseeding just bought a 500gal/Mit40 setup, I think it's an old turbo turf system.

I plan on spraying primarily paper and eventually seeing how much wood mulch this thing will handle, maybe 70/30 paper/ wood?

Industry Standard or Do I have a right to be Peeved?

I just left a bad review of a hydroseeding/landscaping company in IL that is listed on this site, and I don't do that lightly, so I'm still leaving the door open to delete the review if somebody can make a compelling argument that the contractor doesn't have anything to account for and was just following the industry norms. My situation is as follows:

Advice for new yard please

Wed July 15, 2020, 07:07:47 PM by Laurenhigginson | Views: 271 | Comments: 2

Hi everyone!

We built a new house in SW Michigan and hired someone to hydroseed the yard. It’s semi rocky and has lots of weeds that have grown in since it was graded. The guy doing the work said it is his first time. (He has his own excavating company but has never hydroseeded.) I want to make sure it’s done right.

He didn’t suggest top soil, but I think we need it. How many inches is typically recommended? I’m attaching pictures. I’m worried about the rocks and weeds. Do...

Hoping someone can help here, I have a Finn T60, and it worked fine, it has been out of use for a little while, put it out of use because it started to malfunction. Now I need to use it again, so I have to figure this issue out.
