Sod Installation
Immediate transformation where it is needed.
The diagnosis
Sod is the right answer where turf is beyond recovery, where the timeline is now, or where new construction left bare graded dirt. It is the wrong answer over unprepared ground: sod over a bad grade gives you a green version of the same bumpy problem.
Method & materials
Preparation first: soil grading and surface prep, then professional installation.
Preparation is most of the job: grading, soil correction, and a true surface before a single roll goes down. The sod itself is fresh-cut fescue suited to this region, laid tight and rolled in.
What to expect after
Water daily for the first two weeks. Sod either roots now or never. Stay off it for three. First mow when it resists a gentle tug. Done right, seams vanish in a month and the lawn is fully usable in six weeks.
Common questions
- How much does lawn leveling cost?
- Pricing depends on the size of the lawn, the amount of material required, access, and the severity of the unevenness. Request a quote for an accurate estimate. It only takes a few minutes.
- What is top dressing?
- Top dressing is the application of a thin layer of material across the lawn to help smooth the surface and improve soil conditions.
- Can you fix a severely bumpy lawn?
- In many cases, yes. The best approach depends on the severity of the problem and may include leveling, grading, top dressing, or full lawn renovation.
