  1. Do you provide care instructions with the sod?

    • While we don’t provide care instructions with each order, we recommend watering the sod with 1 inch of water daily for about 3 weeks until it roots (unless it rains). Avoid treating for weeds for about 45 days, and do not fertilize for about 90 days. For best results, keep pets off the grass during this time.
  2. Can I mix different types of sod?

    • Mixing sod types is generally not recommended, as different types have varying growth rates, color, and texture. It’s best to choose one type that fits your specific needs for a uniform lawn.
  3. How soon can I mow my new sod?

    • You can start mowing your sod once it has established roots, typically 2 to 3 weeks after installation. Ensure your mower blades are sharp, and only cut a third of the grass height to prevent stress on the sod.
  4. What should I do if my sod turns brown?

    • Brown patches may indicate under-watering or stress. Make sure the sod is receiving enough water, especially in the first few weeks after installation. If the problem persists, contact us for further advice.
  5. Can I install sod over an existing lawn?

    • For best results, we recommend removing any existing grass or weeds before laying new sod. Installing sod over an old lawn can lead to uneven growth and other issues.
  6. What is the best time of year to install sod?

    • Sod can be installed at any time of year in Georgia, but the best times are during the spring and fall when temperatures are moderate. This helps the sod establish roots more easily.
  7. How long will it take for my sod to fully establish?

    • Sod typically takes about 6 to 8 weeks to fully establish, depending on the type of sod, weather conditions, and care. Regular watering and proper maintenance are crucial during this period.
  8. Will my new sod match my existing lawn?

    • Sod from the same variety should match closely, but factors like age, sunlight, and soil conditions can cause slight variations. For a perfect match, consider resodding the entire area.
  9. Is there a warranty or guarantee on the sod?

    • We guarantee that our sod is freshly harvested and in healthy condition upon delivery. However, since the care after installation is beyond our control, we do not offer a warranty on sod.
  10. How can I prepare my soil before sod installation?

    • Proper soil preparation is key to successful sod installation. This includes removing existing grass, tilling the soil, and adding a layer of compost or topsoil to create a smooth, fertile surface for the sod to root.

6. What are some after-installation care tips for sod?

To help your sod establish strong roots:

  • Water 1 inch daily before sunrise for about three weeks. Use a cup or container on the ground to measure when it fills to 1 inch.
  • Avoid walking or placing heavy objects on the sod during the rooting period.
  • Refrain from fertilizing for the first 90 days to prevent root burn.
  • Mow for the first time after 3–4 weeks, ensuring the mower blades are sharp.

7. What are the sunlight and care requirements for the different types of sod?

  • Tifway Bermuda 419: Requires full sun with at least 7 hours of direct sunlight daily. Ideal for high-traffic areas.
  • Tall Fescue (Kentucky Bluegrass): Shade-tolerant and green year-round. Thrives in cool weather but requires frequent watering and reseeding annually due to its fast growth.
  • Emerald & Zeon Zoysia: Fine-bladed and shade-tolerant, requiring only 3–5 hours of sunlight daily. Excellent for lower-maintenance lawns.
  • Meyer & Empire Zoysia: Wider blades and a darker green color. Meyer thrives in partial sun, while Empire can handle more shade.
  • Centipede: Prefers full sun and minimal fertilization, making it a low-maintenance option.
  • St. Augustine: Shade-tolerant and thrives in warm, humid climates but requires consistent watering and care.

8. Do you sell sod squares?

Yes, but please note that sod squares are delicate and must be handled with care due to the thin layer of dirt beneath the grass. Proper handling will prevent damage during installation.
