Full, freshly installed green sod lawn across a north Atlanta front yard

Quick answer

What does sod installation include?

We clear and grade the site, prep the soil, and lay fresh-cut sod tight with staggered seams and clean edges, then give you the watering plan that gets it to root. Available as a patch repair or a full-yard install, and commonly bundled with a stump grind so the ground spot blends right back into the lawn.

The process

Four steps. The prep is the job.

A good lawn is won in the grading and soil prep, not the sod. We run the same four steps on every install.

01

Site prep.

Old turf, weeds, and debris cleared. The area left after a stump grind is filled. Surface cleaned down to workable soil so the new sod has something to root into.

02

Grading.

Soil graded for drainage, away from the house, no low spots that pool water. This is the step that decides whether the lawn lasts or peels up in patches.

03

Laying sod.

Fresh-cut sod laid tight, seams staggered like brickwork, edges trimmed clean against beds and walkways. Rolled so the roots make contact with the soil.

04

Finish & watering plan.

Edges cleaned, off-cuts hauled, and you get the exact watering routine for your grass type, the first two to three weeks decide whether it takes.

Pricing

FAQ

Sod installation questions.

How much does sod installation cost?
It depends on square footage, sod type, and how much grading and prep the site needs. Quotes are free, in person, no obligation, we come out, look at the area, and give you the price on the spot. We don't quote sod from photos because the prep is half the job.
What kind of sod do you install?
We install the warm-season grasses that do well in north Atlanta, Bermuda, Zoysia, Fescue, and Centipede are the common ones. The right pick depends on sun, traffic, and how much watering you want to commit to. We'll match the grass to the yard on the in-person quote.
Do you prep and grade the soil first?
Yes, and it's the part that makes sod last. We clear the area, grade for drainage, and prep the soil so the roots take. Sod laid on bad prep peels up and dies in patches, the grade and the soil are where a lasting lawn is won.
Can you patch a section, or only do full yards?
Both. We do patch repairs, a bare spot, a strip along a driveway, the area left after a stump grind, and full-yard installs from scratch. Same standard either way.
Can you sod where a stump was just ground?
Yes, and it's a common bundle. After grinding, we fill and grade the hole, prep the soil, and lay sod over it so the spot blends into the rest of the lawn. One crew, one visit, no bare patch left behind.
How do I take care of new sod?
Water is everything for the first two to three weeks, keep it consistently moist while the roots knit into the soil, then taper to a normal schedule. Stay off it as much as possible early on. We walk you through the exact watering routine for your grass type when we finish.
What's the best time of year to lay sod?
Spring and early fall are ideal, mild temperatures help the roots establish before summer heat or winter cold. That said, sod can be laid most of the year in metro Atlanta with the right watering; we'll tell you honestly if your timing needs extra care.

Bare yard or thin patches?

New lawn. Prepped right. Built to take.
