Lawn Maintenance
Why does my lawn have brown or dead patches?
What’s likely going on
Could be several genuinely different things — uneven watering, a lawn disease, grub damage underneath the surface, or simple compacted soil that's choking the roots. The right fix depends entirely on which of those it actually is, and guessing wrong can waste a whole season.
Is this a DIY job or worth calling someone?
Worth a real look before treating it, since the wrong treatment for the actual cause won't help and can occasionally make it worse. This is one where a professional diagnosis is genuinely more efficient than trial and error.
