Fertilization
Seasonal feeding that keeps your lawn thick, green, and strong enough to crowd out weeds.
Classic Lawncare
Sod Installation Done Right.
Bare dirt and dead patches don't fix themselves. New sod, prepped and installed correctly, gives you a full lawn now instead of a gamble next season.
The Service
Sod Installation, Done Properly
Sod succeeds or fails on preparation. We remove what's dead, address the soil underneath, set proper grade, and lay fresh sod tight and level — then give you clear watering instructions so your investment takes root.
Signs You Need It
Sod may be the right call if:
- Large areas of lawn are dead or bare
- Previous seeding attempts never filled in
- Pets, shade, or drought have worn out sections of turf
- You want a finished lawn for a sale, event, or new build
What It Can Include
Scope of the Work
- Removing dead turf and preparing the soil
- Grading so water drains away from the house
- Installing fresh sod, laid tight with staggered seams
- Rolling for soil contact and a level surface
- Clear watering and first-mow guidance
Exact scope depends on your property — we confirm everything in your free estimate.
Why It's Worth It
Benefits
- An immediately green, usable lawn
- Better drainage and fewer low spots
- Turf matched to your sun, shade, and soil conditions
- One crew handling prep, install, and cleanup
Our Approach
How We Handle It
We're honest about whether you need full replacement or just patching — sod isn't cheap, and we'd rather size the job correctly than oversell it. Once installed, we walk you through exactly how to water it in, and our mowing and fertilization services can take it from established to exceptional.

Sod Installation FAQs
What type of sod should I get?
It depends on sunlight, irrigation, and how the space is used. Common Texas choices include Bermuda for full sun and Zoysia or St. Augustine where there's shade. We'll recommend what suits your yard when we look at it.
When can sod be installed?
Sod can go in through much of the year here, though establishment is easiest in the growing season. We'll advise on timing for your situation.
How soon can I walk on new sod?
Light foot traffic is generally fine after the first couple of weeks of rooting, with normal use once it's established. We'll give you specific guidance with your installation.
