Frequently Asked Questions
How long until I can walk on a newly seeded lawn?
Light foot traffic is okay at 3-4 weeks once the grass is 2 inches tall, but regular use, kids, pets, mowing, should wait 6-8 weeks. In Vancouver, spring seedings established by mid-May typically handle full summer use.
How much does seeding or overseeding cost in Vancouver?
Overseeding an existing lawn usually runs $0.10-$0.30 per sq ft ($300-$900 for a typical yard), while a full new seed install with soil prep lands around $1-$2.50 per sq ft. Hydroseeding larger areas can be more cost-effective than sod by 40-60%.
When is the best time to seed a lawn in Vancouver?
Early fall (late August to early October) is ideal, warm soil, cool air, and reliable rain give strong germination with less weed pressure. Spring (April-May) is the second-best window, but summer heat can stress young grass if you seed too late.
What seed blends work best for Vancouver's climate?
We use custom perennial ryegrass and fine fescue blends suited to the Pacific Northwest, they handle our wet winters, shoulder-season shade, and summer drought once established. For shaded yards we lean more heavily on fescue; for sunny front lawns, more rye.
Seeding vs sod, which should I choose?
Seeding costs roughly a quarter of sod and produces deeper roots long-term, but you wait 6-8 weeks for a usable lawn. Sod is instant and better for sloped or erosion-prone sites; seeding wins on price, root depth, and matching a specific microclimate.
