Our Installation Process

Every installation follows our proven five-step process, refined over 35+ years of experience to ensure lasting results.

Step 1: Consultation & Planning

We visit your property to assess soil conditions, drainage, sun exposure, and your goals. We recommend the best grass variety and provide a detailed estimate.

Step 2: Soil Preparation

Proper soil prep is the foundation of a healthy lawn. We remove old vegetation, amend soil as needed, and ensure proper nutrient levels for strong root establishment.

Step 3: Grading & Leveling

We grade your yard to ensure proper drainage away from structures. A level surface means no puddles, no erosion, and a professional-looking finish.

Step 4: Sod Installation

Fresh-cut sod is laid in a staggered brick pattern for tight seams. Each piece is fitted precisely around edges, walkways, and landscaping features.

Step 5: Cleanup & Aftercare

We clean up the job site, roll the sod for good soil contact, and provide you with a complete watering and maintenance guide for your new lawn.

Sod Installation FAQ

Do you install sod, or just deliver it?

Both. We can deliver fresh-cut sod for you or your landscaper to lay, or our crews can handle the full job: consultation, soil prep, grading, installation, rolling, and cleanup.

How do I get a price for sod installation?

Request a free estimate with the form above or call 1-800-643-TURF. Give us your address and we can measure your yard for you. Every installation is quoted for the specific property, since soil prep, grading, and grass variety all affect the job.

When is the best time to install sod in Tennessee?

Warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia establish best from late spring through summer, when soil is warm. Cool-season grasses like Fescue and Bluegrass do best in early fall or spring. See our guide to the best time to lay sod in Tennessee for details by region.

How soon does new sod take root?

Sod typically roots into the soil within 2 to 3 weeks with proper watering, and takes about a month before it can handle normal watering and use. We leave you with a complete watering and care guide after every installation.

Do you install commercial and athletic field sod?

Yes. Along with residential lawns, we install sod for commercial properties, new construction, golf courses, and athletic fields across Tennessee and Kentucky.
