What is Sod?

Sod, also known as turf or grass sod, is essentially pre-grown grass that has been cultivated by professional growers (sod farms). It comes in rolls ready to be installed onto prepared soil. The sod we install is 100% Kentucky Bluegrass.

Benefits of Sod:

1. Instant Greenery: One of the most significant advantages of sod is its instant transformation capabilities. Within hours of installation, your barren patch of land can be turned into a lush, green carpet, instantly enhancing the beauty of your property.

2. Erosion Control: Sod helps prevent soil erosion, especially on slopes or areas prone to heavy rainfall. Its dense root system anchors the soil, reducing the risk of runoff and soil displacement.

3. Soil Health Improvement: Sod helps improve soil health by promoting microbial activity and enhancing soil structure. It contributes to better water retention and nutrient absorption, leading to healthier and more resilient turf over time.

4. Instant Usability: Unlike seeded lawns that require weeks to establish, sodded lawns are ready for immediate use. Whether it's hosting outdoor gatherings, playing with pets, or simply enjoying a leisurely stroll, sod provides an instant outdoor living space.

5. Year-Round Installation: While seeding is often limited to specific times of the year, sod can be installed almost year-round providing flexibility and convenience for homeowners looking to improve their landscapes. We install sod from April until November- December.

6. Enhanced Property Value: A well-maintained lawn adds significant curb appeal and can increase the overall value of your property. Sod offers a quick and effective way to enhance your landscape, making it more attractive to potential buyers.

7. Environmental Benefits: Sod plays a crucial role in environmental conservation by reducing carbon emissions, mitigating heat island effects, and promoting biodiversity. It helps cool the air, trap dust and pollutants, and provide habitat for various wildlife species.
