FAQs

Find answers to common questions about our sod installation services and maintenance.

What is sod?

Sod is a layer of grass and soil held together by roots. It provides an instant lawn and is ideal for quick landscaping solutions. Using sod can enhance your property's appearance and prevent soil erosion.

How is sod installed?

Sod installation involves preparing the soil, laying the sod pieces, and ensuring proper watering. We assess your site to provide the best preparation and drainage solutions. Our team ensures a seamless installation for lasting results.

When should I install?

The best time to install sod is during the cooler months of spring or fall. This timing helps the grass establish roots before facing extreme heat or cold. However, we can install sod year-round with proper care.

What types of sod?

We offer a variety of sod types, including Bermuda, Zoysia, and Tall Fescue. Each type has unique benefits suited for different climates and uses. Our experts can guide you in selecting the best option for your lawn.

How to maintain sod?

Maintaining sod involves regular watering, mowing, and fertilization. It's crucial to keep the soil moist but not soggy, especially in the first few weeks. We provide ongoing maintenance services to ensure your sod thrives.
