What does it involve?

Sod installation is a detailed process that requires proper preparation and expert handling to ensure the new lawn thrives. Here’s how we approach sod installation:

• Lawn Assessment and Planning: We begin by assessing your yard to determine the best type of sod for your specific conditions. This includes evaluating soil quality, sunlight exposure, and the intended use of the lawn. We’ll help you choose the right grass variety that will flourish in Fresno’s climate, whether you need a drought-tolerant type, a shade-loving variety, or a hardy, all-purpose turf.
• Soil Preparation: Proper soil preparation is crucial for the success of sod installation. We start by removing any existing grass, weeds, and debris from the area. The soil is then loosened and graded to ensure it’s level and has good drainage. We may also add soil amendments, such as compost or fertilizer, to enrich the soil and promote healthy root growth.
• Sod Installation: Once the soil is prepared, we carefully lay the sod in a staggered pattern to prevent seams and create a seamless, uniform lawn. The sod pieces are tightly fitted together to avoid gaps, and we ensure that all edges are properly aligned with walkways, driveways, and garden beds.
• Watering and Rolling: After the sod is laid, it’s thoroughly watered to help the roots establish contact with the soil. We also roll the sod to ensure it has full contact with the soil, which helps eliminate air pockets and encourages quicker rooting.
