  • When sod is installed at your home, numerous benefits are realized, including the immediate establishment of a lush lawn. Soil erosion is significantly reduced, contributing to the preservation of the landscape and the prevention of sediment runoff. Air and water quality are improved as sod absorbs carbon dioxide, releases oxygen, and filters contaminants from rainwater. The installation enhances the overall property value, adding aesthetic appeal and functional outdoor space for recreational activities and relaxation.

Caring for Fresh Sod

After our professional landscapers install sod at your home, proper care is essential. Fresh sod requires a different maintenance routine compared to a traditional lawn. Follow these steps to ensure a healthy and attractive sod lawn:

Week One

  • Avoid overwatering, but don't let the sod dry out completely. Water three to four times a day for five to ten minutes each time.
  • Water before sundown to allow complete absorption.
  • Avoid foot traffic on the new sod lawn for the first two weeks.

Week Two

  • Water the sod lawn for 30 minutes daily, divided into two 15-minute sessions.

Week Three & Beyond

  • Begin mowing your sod lawn when it's three weeks old, keeping the mower deck high.
  • Fertilize the sod lawn after six weeks.
