This is my lawn in 2008 and my lawn today. I have a nationally known firm fertilize it year round. This summer a friend of mine cut it for me when I was away on business. I always cut it on 6 but this time it was cut on 3. There were several areas that burnt and died but also plenty of areas that were fine and still green and growing. As you can see the whole lawn has died. I've spoken with a landscaping company and have been told it would be around $5 -6,000.00 to prepare and hydro seed the lawn. I also had a rep from the fertilizing company come out and he says it probably was a fungus but offered no proof. The back yard and where there is no fertilizing done has not died. I stopped having the back done when I got the pups and chickens.
The questions I have for you guys are... What do you think is the possibility that the company put down a wrong chemical and killed the lawn & two, is there anyway to have the soil tested to see if indeed there something in the soil that killed it.
I certainly appreciate any ideas. I hate looking out my window and seeing this mess
