Sod Installation
A dense, level lawn from day one — prepared properly so it roots properly.
Overview
What changes for you.
Sod is only as good as what is underneath it. Most failed lawns come down to poor grading, compacted soil or sod left sitting on a pallet too long.
Our installs start with removal and grading, add quality topsoil where needed, and lay Kentucky Bluegrass sod in tight, staggered seams so it knits together evenly.
Instant finished look
A complete lawn the day we leave — no patchy seed stage.
Better drainage
Grade corrected away from the house before a single roll goes down.
Faster establishment
Good soil contact and proper watering guidance help sod root quickly.

FAQ
Sod Installation: common questions.
Can I just buy sod and install it myself?
Yes. Use the Order Sod portal for Kentucky Bluegrass delivered to your property.
How soon can I walk on new sod?
Keep foot traffic light for the first two to three weeks while roots establish.
When should I mow new sod?
Usually once the sod has rooted and resists a gentle tug — often two to three weeks after install.
