Sod Installation

Our professional sod installation process ensures a healthy, beautiful lawn that thrives for years to come. First, we'll meticulously prepare the soil by removing any weeds, debris, or rocks. This creates a clean and level base for the new sod. Next, we'll amend the soil with essential nutrients to promote healthy root growth. Then, we carefully lay the fresh sod rolls, ensuring seamless connections and proper watering to encourage strong root establishment. Finally, we provide detailed instructions on aftercare, including watering schedules and mowing practices, to ensure your new lawn flourishes.

Blue Grass Sod

Bluegrass sod is a type of turf-grass grown as a thick mat and then harvested for installation on your lawn. Known for its lush, green appearance and dense growth, bluegrass is a popular choice for homeowners seeking a traditional, elegant lawn. It's often used in residential yards, golf courses, and sports fields due to its durability and ability to withstand moderate foot traffic.

Bluegrass sod generally requires consistent mowing, watering, and fertilization to maintain its vibrant color and health.However, with proper care, it can create a beautiful, carpet-like lawn that enhances your outdoor space.

Care + Tips

WATERING: Give your new lawn at least 2 to 3 centimeters (1 inch) of water within 1/2 hour of installation. Water at least once per day, keeping turf moist until it is firmly rooted. Exactly how much and how often you need to water depends on the soil type in your yard. If you have sandy soil, you will need to water more frequently because the water will tend to drain away faster. After about two weeks, less frequent and deeper watering should begin. Weather conditions will dictate the amount and frequency of watering. Be certain that your new lawn has enough moisture to survive hot, dry, or windy periods. Water areas near buildings more often where reflected heat can dry the turf. Sloped areas also need more water due to runoff.

CAUTION: During the first 3 weeks, avoid heavy or concentrated use of your new lawn. This gives the roots an opportunity to firmly knit with the soil and ensures the turf will remain smooth and level. It’s also important to make sure your grass does not grow too tall during this period, so you will need to mow on a regular schedule.

MAINTENANCE: Mow often, generally removing no more than 1/3 of the grass height at a moving. Keep your mower blade sharp. For best results, bag your clippings. Avoid mowing wet grass. Always mow then water, never the other way around. Fertilizer and chemical applications will depend on climate, soil, insects, weeds, and disease conditions.
