Is this recoverable? Advice on plan of action

2 year old sod laid on clay soil in winter months November of 2024.

My plan of action right now is core aeration and top dressing with compost/soil mix. I also have a service with Fairway lawns for weed control / fertilizer. I just want it to look half way decent at this point.

Any advice/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

In California- as you can see, I’m using a manual 7 blade push mower and I have it set to 0.5 inches. My lawn gets full water coverage with sufficient sprinklers.

This bermuda SOD was laid about 1 year ago, and for some reason the bottom end of my lawn is green and thriving, but the top half is just yellow

I applied Milorganite about 1-2 weeks ago. I mow every other day.

Bermuda Lawn Bare Spots

Hey all good afternoon! I’m in the Charlotte, NC and had my Bermuda lawn for 7 years now. It’s slowly starting to sparse out and I’m not sure what to do to salvage it. I aerate it yearly and overseed. We also have a company that does the fertilizer and weed prevention. Everything else I do myself. The area is on a slope so makes it more trickier. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!!

Edit: I’ve ordered plugs from Lowe’s to see if I can fill in and restart some growth.

Brown spots

I added this Bermuda grass to my backyard about two months ago. All the lines filled in perfectly but now I’m noticing a lot of brown spots. I thought I had been doing well the times I fertilized but maybe I did something wrong. Any tips? I water 2-3 times a week depending on the heat here in South Texas. I water in the morning with a sprinkler bought on Amazon. It may not perfectly water evenly, but I know for sure that some of these brown spots do get plenty of water

Clover in Bermuda keeps coming back.

Looking for advice regarding clover in my Bermuda lawn.

I used Celsius a few weeks ago to help control the clover in my lawn, and it did a really good job! I sprayed the entire lawn and after a couple of weeks, the clover disappeared. A month after spraying the clover and watching it die, it's come back. It is popping up all over my lawn and it looks like I'll have to spray all over again. Is this normal and expected? Will I have to spray every month to control the clover? Will the clover ever get too weak to come back?

Newbie here, help

Had bad erosion throughout the years and finally got underground drainage. Do I need to grade before I lay sod?

Never done this before so just need some suggestions before laying the sod on the bigger part where no grass is visible.
