How we work

Cleared, hauled, clean.

Prep decides how it turns out

Sod laid on bumpy, compacted ground stays bumpy and struggles to root. We clear it, grade it and prep the soil first. That is why it looks like a real lawn instead of rolled out squares.

Pairs with a cleanup

A lot of sod jobs start as a cleanup. Clear the overgrowth, fix the beds and edges, then lay new lawn so the whole yard is finished at once.

FAQ

Sod Installation questions.

How fast can I walk on new sod?

Give it about two weeks of regular watering before heavy use. We walk you through watering when we finish.

Do you remove the old lawn?

Yes. Old grass, weeds and debris come out and get hauled away before the new sod goes down.

Can you do small areas?

Yes. Strips along driveways, bare spots and side yards are common. Text a photo and we will price it.
