Get Your Lawn Ready for Spring with New Sod Grass!

Spring is here, and if you're looking to improve your lawn, then you’re in luck because this season is the BEST TIME to lay your new sod grass.


Instant gratification sod is a pre-grown, mature grass that has been farmed for 10 to 24 months under ideal growing conditions, making it the perfect option for those looking to achieve a thick, healthy lawn that’s naturally resistant to weeds, diseases, and pest infestations.


There's no doubt that sod is the ultimate solution for instant gratification, giving you a dense, well-established lawn in just a couple of weeks. And the benefits don't stop there! Sod can also increase your home value and add curb appeal to your property. It's no wonder why more homeowners are opting for sod instead of planting grass seed.


If you're considering laying new sod grass, it's essential to follow specific steps to achieve the optimal result. Here's a breakdown of the process:


  1. Prepare the Soil: The first step is to clear any debris and level the soil, making sure it's free of rocks, roots, and other obstacles.

  2. Level the Surface: Ensure the soil is level and has a slight slope for proper drainage.

  3. Lay the First Row: Start at the longest straight edge of the lawn and lay the first row of sod.

  4. Lay Subsequent Rows: Place the next rows in a staggered pattern, ensuring that the seams don't line up.

  5. Trim Pieces Against Edges: Cut the sod to fit any curves or edges using a sharp knife or spade.

  6. Water, Water, Water: Water your new sod every day for the first week, then gradually decrease to every other day for the next two weeks.

  7. Mow the Lawn: Wait until your new sod has taken root before mowing, which typically takes about two weeks.
