How a local crew does it
- 01
Prep the soil
We grade, amend and level the soil so the sod roots into good ground, not hardpan.
- 02
Lay the sod
We stagger the seams like brickwork and pull the rolls tight so no gaps show.
- 03
Roll it in
We roll the sod for soil contact so roots take fast — the difference between a lawn that takes and one that lifts.
- 04
Water and hand off
We set the first watering and give you the schedule for the next two weeks.
When to book in zone 5b
Lay sod May through September so it can root before a hard freeze. Fall installs root in cool weather with less watering.
