I like in Northeastern PA and just bought a new home. It has about a half acre to it. Last year they dug a new well and the ruts the truck left planted new grass. It looks horrible. The new grass is much fuller and much more lush than the surrounding grass.
Is there a good way to level all of the grass out together?
Secondly, there are a lot of tall trees shading the back portion of the yard. Currently there is some grass but it's very 'thin' and I mostly don't even bother mowing it because of the lack of visible growth. I would really like to plan some grass that will grow and be thick, but I have no idea where to start with type etc. Which grass would grow best in this type of situation?

I have found that trying to plant grass in a struggling area is a lost cause. I have gone with mulch and hostas anymore, or ground cover.
