    It depends on why the grass didn't grow in some areas of the yard. If you have a turf grass like St. Augustine or Bermuda it will eventually spread into surrounding areas, unless there's something wrong with those areas. Are they lower than other areas? Poor drainage? You might want to add soil to those areas. If it looks more like it was poor seed distribution, then re-seeding would be appropriate. A very thin layer (1/4"-1/2") of compost applied at the same time would be helpful to establishing the grass.
