The process begins with removal of existing dead or weed infested grass. The soil is removed from the property to a specified depth. Soil amendments are added such as triple-mix. Leveling and grading of the property to allow adequate water drainage is observed.
Laying of the sod by staggering it with each new row that the seams are offset from each other. Sod is cut around all interlock, driveway, and garden surfaces.
Watering thoroughly is the most important part of the development of the root system of your new sod lawn.
Mowing should be completed by one week after the installation. It is recommended that the lawn mower cutting height be adjusted to the highest position until the sod is fully rooted.
Kentucky blue grass is a cool season lawn grass. Bluegrass can be planted from seed or sodded and is one of the most popular turf grass lawns in Northern America. Bluegrass requires medium amounts of lawn care and makes beautiful home and sports grasses.
