Getting Started

1. Ground Preparation

We recommend 4-6” of topsoil.
Rake all large rocks & debris such as leaves.
Level the soil and then pack firmly with a lawn roller.
Install any irrigation.

2. Measuring and Ordering Sod

Calculate the amount of sod required by measuring the length and width of the areas in feet. Length x Width = square feet.

3. Installation

Unroll the turf.
Stagger the joints in each row in a brick-like fashion while ensuring that the pieces lay flush. Avoid any overlaps or gaps!
Roll with a lawn roller and press down the new sod.
Water immediately. In hot weather, water while installing.
Keep turf moist for approximately 2 weeks until firmly rooted (avoid overwatering).
Be sure your turf has enough moisture to survive hot, dry or windy periods.
Begin mowing when turf roots are difficult to separate from the soil, mowing high the first time bringing it down to the desired height gradually.
