Its own website lists hydroseeding, lawn installation, overseeding, erosion control, drainage, and grading and soil prep. The company says it has been in business 15 years and serves towns including Durham, Middletown, Guilford, Madison, Wallingford and Branford. A recent customer said the company was accommodating on very short notice and did the work at a reasonable price, with advice on lawn care. A 2025 customer said the company spread 12-plus yards of topsoil and hydroseeded the backyard, then sent a ton of aftercare instructions. A 2024 customer said Chris had them take photos of the property, evaluated a plan from the photos, and spent several hours preparing the lawn for over-seeding and hydroseeding. That 2024 customer said the grass had really filled in. A 2024 customer said Chris installed a new lawn in the backyard along with a dry river bed for drainage. A 2024 reviewer who wrote as a builder/developer said Chris had installed many lawns for them over the years. A 2025 customer said that after emailing for a quote, the owner gave tips on a cost-effective way to fix the yard on their own. A 2023 customer said the price was fair and that, with the recommended care, the new lawn looked just as promised. **Strengths:** - Short-notice scheduling — a recent customer said they were accommodating on very short notice - Aftercare instructions — a 2025 customer said they sent a ton of them - A plan from photos — a 2024 customer said Chris evaluated the yard from photos - A dry river bed — a 2024 customer said Chris added one for drainage ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - The company's website lists hydroseeding, lawn installation, overseeding, erosion control, drainage, and grading and soil prep services _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://www.cthydroseedingservices.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): ServicesHydroseeding Services Erosion Control Services Drainage Services Grading & Soil Prep Services Lawn …” - Says it has been in business 15 years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.cthydroseedingservices.com) — “Self-reported 15 years in business” - Says it serves towns including Durham, Middletown, Guilford, Madison, Wallingford and Branford _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.cthydroseedingservices.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Durham, Middlefield, Middletown, Guilford, Madison, Wallingford, Branford, Clinton, Westbrook, Killingw…” - A recent customer said the company was accommodating on very short notice and charged a reasonable price _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2xWQlIxa3lhalp3VkdwUloxOWlNVVJEY0U5MlNuYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x226dc8f5c16656f0!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOlVBR1kyajZwVGpRZ19iMURDcE92Snc%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Accommodating on very short notice.
