Big Visions Landscaping installs sod as part of their complete landscape design and installation, or as a standalone service.
Why Choose Sod Installation?
If you’re stuck trying to decide between seeding your lawn or installing sod, we can help. Here are a few benefits of sod installation:
- Instant results: Unlike seeding, which requires time for grass to grow and fill in, sod provides instant results. Once installed, you can enjoy a green and lush lawn.
- Reduced erosion: Sloped areas on your property can experience erosion during periods of heavy rain. The sod root system forms quickly, anchoring the soil in place and reducing the risk of erosion.
- Weed control: Sod installation reduces the likelihood of weed growth compared to seeding. Since sod is already mature grass, it creates a dense, uniform turf that inhibits weed seeds from germinating and taking root.
- Increased property value: A well-maintained lawn adds significant value to your property by boosting curb appeal and improving the overall appearance of your outdoor space. Sod installation instantly transforms your landscape, making it more attractive to potential buyers or visitors.
Our Sod Installation Process
We have a streamlined process for sod installation. Our service includes the following steps:
- Site preparation: The first step in sod installation is preparing the site. This involves clearing the area of debris, rocks, and weeds. The soil may also need grading to encourage proper drainage.
- Soil testing and amendments: We want to create the best environment possible to encourage your sod to thrive. In some cases, we test the soil to examine its unique makeup. If we determine the soil is deficient in any nutrients, we can apply fertilizer or other amendments to create the best conditions for growth.
- Sod installation: Once we complete preparations, we begin installation. The sod pieces are staggered to create solid coverage and a uniform appearance. Placing the pieces as close together as possible without overlapping prevents weed growth and gives your lawn a uniform appearance.
- Trimming: As we install the sod, we trim away any excess to fit around trees, flowerbeds, or other obstacles on your property.
- Watering and compaction: Watering and compacting are vital during installation. We water the sod immediately to help encourage root growth. Compacting the sod helps it make a solid connection with the soil, helping the root system to establish itself quickly.
