Hydroseeding in Seffner, FL

Hydroseeding in Seffner fits a place in transition. The community is still known for towering live oaks, strawberry farms and lakes, but housing subdivisions have been added to what was once a rural landscape. That mix means one street might have a brand-new lot with bare graded sand and the next a 60-year-old yard shaded by oaks. We treat those very differently.

Lakes on the southeast side

Lake Weeks, on Seffner's southeast side, covers about 58 acres and is known for fishing and Spanish moss. Lake-side lots slope toward the water, and bare soil on those slopes ends up in the lake after a hard rain. A hydroseed with bonding mulch, plus a silt fence run along the low edge of the yard while any grading is underway, keeps that soil where it belongs.

Under the oaks

Big live oaks give shade that most lawn grasses will not tolerate. Before spraying a shaded yard, we look at how many hours of sun each area gets. Sometimes the right answer is grass in the open parts and mulch or groundcover near the trunks.

Freeze history

The winter of 1894-1895 brought cold severe enough that many early residents left, though the community recovered. Inland spots like Seffner still get colder nights than the coast, which is one reason we prefer to seed warm-season grass in spring and summer.

Subdivision work

New neighborhoods need pond slopes, common areas and lot backs covered quickly. We can spray those in phases for a builder, set silt fence on lots that drain toward roads or lakes, and come back to touch up thin areas.

Parks and fields

Seffner has six public parks, including Seffner-Mango Park and the Rodney Colson Sports Complex with its open field. Public and private sports fields are another place where overseeding and lawn repair help after heavy use.
