Proper preparation is key to a healthy, long-lasting lawn. You’ll need to remove any existing grass or weeds, loosen the soil, level the surface, and ensure good drainage. For step-by-step instructions, check out our Before You Buy section to make sure your lawn is ready for a successful sod installation.
You should wait to mow your new sod until it has firmly rooted into the soil—usually about 2 to 3 weeks after installation, depending on the weather and how well it’s been watered. A good way to check is to gently tug on the sod; if it resists, it’s likely rooted and ready for its first mow. When you do mow, make sure your mower blades are sharp and only cut the top third of the grass to avoid stressing it.
It’s best to avoid walking on your new sod for the first 10 to 14 days to allow the roots to begin establishing in the soil. Excess foot traffic—especially right after installation—can cause uneven settling, poor root contact, or even damage to the sod.
If you have pets, try to keep them off the lawn during this period as well. For potty breaks, guide them to a designated area and rinse the spot with water afterward to minimize any potential damage. Once the sod has started rooting (you’ll feel resistance when you gently tug), you can gradually introduce light foot or paw traffic.
Yes! We offer sod delivery directly to your home or job site for your convenience. If you’d prefer a hands-off approach, we also provide professional sod installation services, including full site preparation, laying, and rolling for optimal root contact. Whether you’re tackling a DIY project or want a full-service solution, we’ve got you covered. Contact us for availability, pricing, and scheduling in your area.
