Installing a sod lawn has several advantages as compared to other lawn planting methods. It is a great alternative for sloped areas or erosion-prone areas. Moreover, Sod is a faster and more reliable way than seed as they need more time as well as care.

Our company provides the best services for SOD Installation in Charlotte NC. We will establish your lawn in a short amount of time and make it beautiful, healthy and sustainable for you.

What is SOD?

Mostly lawns as planted by seeds, but there is another option in the form of SOD. It is a layer of established grass and is dug up with roots with some soil still attached. The sod is harvested in long strips and rolled up with soil side out to install in the customer’s lawns.

Sod is also a perfect solution for those lawns where seeds can’t survive due to un favorable conditions. It gives quick and gorgeous outcomes and a good value for your money.

Things that You should consider while selecting and installing SOD

There are different types of sod, it is important that customers consider all the factors before its installation. Select the one that suits best for your lawn in terms of quality of soil, weather and water. On top of everything, it should be the best-looking grass for your lawn and can keep it green the whole year.

Weather can greatly affect the installation, ideally, we recommend installing the sod in the spring, fall, and winter season. Usually, summer is not a suitable time because it needs a ton of water during the installation process.

Preparing the site before installation

To achieve optimal results, “The Wizard of SOD” prepares your site very carefully.

Determine the Lawn Area – One of the essential steps before installation is to properly determine the size of the area that needs to be sodded. It will be helpful in accurately calculating the sod strips and other things like nutrients.

Controlling Perennial Weeds – It is important to control any perennial weeds or unwanted grasses if there are any on the site. Otherwise, the installation will not be fully successful.

Removing the Trash – An integral part of the installation is to clean the area and remove any construction scrap, wood, concrete, pipe or rocks. Any debris left can affect the growth of sod in the future and as a result, it will be decayed over time.

Making the Surface Smooth – Levelling the whole area is necessary, so that water can spread evenly and equally.

Replacing the Topsoil – This is especially important for sites which have poor inherent soil fertility. We carefully examine it and if the result shows that it is useful then we can modify and reuse it.

Proper Soil Moistening– Lightly moistening the soil with water is required before the installation. We make sure that the site is not muddy at the time of installation. Hence, we water the site far enough in advance.  

Installation and Watering after it – Our highly professional team carefully instals the sod strips, especially in irregular areas. We combine the joints tightly without overlapping, it prevents the roots from drying out. We thoroughly water the area after the installation of the sod.

  • The usual seed germination process requires more water than sod. You may need to water it up to four times a day. On the other hand, newly planted sod needs watering twice a day during the first few weeks. Sod can minimise water consumption and as a result, you can save money.
  • Unlike other options, sod makes the lawn denser. Tightly fitting all the pieces of sod creates an even as well as lush lawn.
  • Another benefit of sod is that it prevents soil erosion. Once we install the sod, it is ready to control erosion, dust and mud because it is already matured.
