This ensures proper root growth and a healthy green lawn. We secure the sod with staples or fasteners. This prevents any movement or displacement. We apply starter fertilizer to kickstart growth.

Benefits of Professional Sod Installation

Complete Sod Installation Services
Our sod installation process is designed for lasting results and healthy, vigorous growth.
1. Site Evaluation and Soil Preparation
We begin by evaluating your existing soil condition, drainage, sun exposure, and grade. Then we remove old turf and weeds, amend the soil, and level the ground to promote proper drainage and root development.
2. Fresh, Locally Sourced Sod
We install premium sod selected for Maryland’s climate—typically tall fescue or Kentucky bluegrass blends. Our sod is cut fresh and delivered the same day it’s installed to maximize establishment and color retention.
3. Professional Installation
Our trained crew lays sod with tight seams and proper staggering to minimize visible lines. We use commercial rollers to ensure good contact with the soil and prevent air pockets that can dry out the roots.
4. Starter Fertilization and Watering
We apply starter fertilizer to boost root growth and provide your sod with essential nutrients. We also advise on a custom watering schedule to help your lawn establish quickly and avoid over- or under-watering.
5. Post-Installation Support
Once your sod is installed, we provide guidance on mowing, watering, and long-term care to ensure it thrives through the seasons. We’re always available for follow-up visits and additional lawn services.

Spring and early fall are ideal, but sod can be installed any time the ground is workable—as long as proper watering is maintained.
Q: Do I need to water sod every day?
Yes, new sod requires frequent watering—typically 1–2 times daily for the first 1–2 weeks, then gradually tapered off as roots establish.
