Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose sod or seed for my new lawn?
The choice depends on your budget and timeline. Sod provides instant results and is ready to use in two to three weeks, but costs more initially. Seed is more budget-friendly and offers greater grass variety selection, but takes several months to fully establish.
How long until I can use my new lawn?
Sod lawns are ready for light traffic in two to three weeks once roots establish, with full use appropriate after four to six weeks. Seeded lawns take longer, typically eight to twelve weeks before they can handle regular activity.
How much does new lawn installation cost?
Costs vary based on installation method, lawn size, and site preparation needs. Sod typically costs more per square foot but delivers instant results. Seed is more economical but requires time to establish.
What maintenance does a new lawn require?
New lawns need consistent watering during establishment. Sod requires daily watering for two weeks, then gradually reduced frequency. Seed needs multiple light waterings daily until germination, then deeper, less frequent watering.
When is the best time to install a new lawn?
Fall is often ideal for cool-season grasses with warm soil and cooler air temperatures supporting excellent establishment. Spring also works well with moderate conditions. Summer is challenging for cool-season grasses but perfect for warm-season varieties.
