Benefits of Sodding Services

Sodding offers numerous advantages for your landscape:

  • Instant Results: Sod provides a green, fully-formed lawn immediately after installation, perfect for anyone seeking fast results.

  • Erosion Control: Sod helps stabilize soil quickly, reducing the risk of erosion compared to seeding.

  • Weed Prevention: The dense turf layer from sod suppresses weed growth more effectively than grass seed, especially in the initial establishment phase. 

  • Increased Property Value: A lush, green lawn enhances your home’s curb appeal and overall property value.

  • Low Maintenance Start: Once installed, sod requires less initial maintenance than seeded lawns and establishes faster.

Factors That Affect Cost

Several factors can influence the final cost of your sod installation:

  • Yard Size: Larger areas generally reduce the price per square foot.

  • Soil Condition: Poor soil that requires significant amendment or leveling may incur additional costs.

  • Obstacles: Landscapes with obstacles like trees, fences, curvy beds or slopes can increase labor and material costs.

  • Access to Property: If your yard has limited access, such as narrow gates or steep inclines, this can increase labor time and affect pricing.

  • Seasonality: The time of year can affect sod pricing and availability, especially during peak demand periods.

  • Land Grading: The cost of sod installation can vary significantly depending on the site's existing grade; properties needing significant grading will incur additional charges.
