Lawns With a View

Hydroseeding in Grandview works with a city that was literally named for its high ground. The town took its name from the view from its elevated townsite, at about 1,050 feet, and it sits along U.S. 71 on the southern edge of Kansas City, Missouri. Yards on the high points shed water fast; yards below them catch it.

Upper lots and lower lots

On a slope, the top lot dries quickly and can struggle to keep seed moist, while the bottom lot can turn soggy. We adjust both: more mulch and more frequent watering advice for the high side, and better grading or a drain line on the low side before we seed.

Postwar housing

Grandview's sharpest growth came between 1950 and 1970, when it reached 17,456 people. Many of the homes from that period still have their original yards, now thin and uneven. Renovation with hydroseeding gives those lawns a fresh, even start.

Longview Lake to the east

Longview Lake, a 930-acre Corps of Engineers reservoir on the Little Blue River, spans parts of Kansas City, Lee's Summit and Grandview. It was built for flood control as well as recreation. Keeping soil on your lot helps the lake do its job.

Old airfield, new freight

The field Kansas City built in 1941 as Grandview Airport later became Richards-Gebaur and closed in 1999. Its grounds now host a rail freight gateway, part of a planned 1,340-acre intermodal center. Large industrial work like that brings commercial seeding and sediment control demand to the area.

Truman's early home

Harry S. Truman lived in Grandview for part of his early years. The town was incorporated in 1912, and older lots near its center have had lawns far longer than the subdivisions at its edges.

Grandview Questions

My lot is at the top of a hill and the seed dries out. What helps?

A heavier hydromulch layer holds moisture longer. In the first weeks, short, light waterings two or three times daily also help.

The yard below mine stays wet. Can grading help?

Often yes. Regrading or a drain line can move water around the low spot before seeding.

Do you seed commercial and industrial sites in the area?

Yes, including silt fence, inlet protection and large-area hydroseeding.

Can a 1960s lawn be renovated without tearing it out?

Sometimes overseeding is enough. If weeds have taken over, a full renovation works better.
