Dreaming of spring? Fight off the winter blues by preparing your landscape for the warmer months to come! Here are a few of our favorite landscape preparation tips:
- Perform soil maintenance on your turf grasses. One of the best things you can do for your lawn is aeration. This relieves soil compaction and allows water and nutrients to better reach the roots of your grass.
- Spread nutrient-rich compost. This simple measure will fertilize your lawn and help insulate it against cold temperatures. Remember, plants growing in healthy soils need less water and fertilizer, and are less susceptible to pests.
- Schedule a free Sprinkler System Checkup. Frisco’s own licensed irrigators can help you identify any inefficiencies in your system while allowing plenty of time for maintenance and repairs before you’ll need to turn on your sprinkler system in the spring. See the ASK AN IRRIGATOR section below for more information!
A healthy, spring-green landscape doesn’t have to be the stuff of dreams. Late winter landscape prep "plants the seeds" for a healthy, WaterWise landscape you can enjoy the rest of the year!

You've got questions and our Licensed Irrigators have answers.
This week's question:
I saw a notice about changes in the way the free sprinkler inspection works. What exactly is changing?
Answer:
As of January 1st, the Water Resources team at Public Works implemented scheduling changes to the free sprinkler system checkup program.
- Residential addresses with an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7, and 9) as their last digit can schedule a free checkup during odd number years.
- Residential addresses with an even number (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8) as their last digit can schedule a free checkup during even number years.
The WaterWise free sprinkler system checkup program began in 2006 with one licensed irrigator. The program is very popular with Frisco residents and saves homeowners millions of gallons of water. Learn more about free sprinkler system checkups here, or use the myFrisco app to schedule an appointment.
