What is Sod Grass?
Sod grass is pre-grown grass harvested in sections with soil and roots intact. After your lawn is prepared, the grass rolls are laid directly onto prepared soil, instantly providing full grass coverage and eliminating the long wait associated with seeding.
Rumaldo’s team ensures sod is grown under professional conditions, so it is free of weeds, pests, and diseases, making it the perfect option for establishing a beautiful lawn quickly and efficiently.
Why Choose a Sod Lawn Installation
A professionally installed sod lawn offers instant beauty and long-term health benefits, making it the preferred choice over traditional seeding.
- Instant Results: Unlike grass seed, which can take weeks to germinate, sod provides an instantly green, established lawn.
- Erosion Prevention: Sod holds soil in place immediately, preventing erosion from wind and water, especially on slopes.
- Improved Property Value: A professionally installed sod lawn enhances curb appeal and adds value to your home or business.
- Weed & Pest Control: High-quality sod from Rumaldo is free of weeds and pests, ensuring a healthier start for your lawn.
- Stronger Root Development: Sod establishes deep, healthy roots faster than seeded lawns, leading to a more durable turf.
Our Sod Installation Process
At Rumaldo Landscape & Tree Service, we ensure a seamless, high-quality sod installation process tailored to the needs of your property as a part of our landscape design services.
Here’s how we do it:
- Site Evaluation & Soil Preparation: We assess the area, test soil conditions, and prepare the ground by removing debris, grading, and addressing any drainage concerns.
- Topsoil Application for Root Development: We apply a layer of nutrient-rich topsoil to improve drainage, boost soil fertility, and promote strong root establishment.
- Professional Sod Laying: Our team lays fresh sod with precision, ensuring seamless installation with no gaps for a uniform, polished look.
- Sod Rolling & Initial Watering: We use professional rolling equipment to secure sod-to-soil contact, followed by an initial deep watering to encourage root bonding.
- Post-Installation Care Plan: We provide detailed watering, mowing, and fertilization guidelines to help your new lawn establish itself successfully.
Sod Maintenance & Aftercare
Proper care after sod installation is essential for healthy root establishment and long-term lawn success. Here’s how we help:
- Watering Guidelines: We provide a custom watering schedule to keep your sod hydrated during its initial growth phase.
- First Mowing & Fertilization: Our team advises on the best time for your first mow and applies starter fertilizers for optimal growth.
- Soil Aeration & Root Strengthening: We offer aeration services and leaf removal services to enhance oxygen and nutrient flow to the developing root system.
