Sod (Turfgrass Sod)

Category: lifestyle

Pre-grown mats of mature grass and soil sliced away from a farm and rolled out to establish an instant lawn.

Sod provides immediate erosion control and aesthetic results. Successful sod installation requires grading the topsoil smooth, adding a high-phosphorus starter fertilizer, knitting the roll joints tight together, and rolling the field flat to pop out sub-surface air voids.

Common Examples

  • The commercial client opted for premium sod installation along the entrance avenue to guarantee an instant landscape finish for the opening.
  • Newly rolled sod blankets demand heavy watering for the first ten days until the roots knit deep into the primary sub-grade layer.
