What a sod job involves

Laying the sod is the last hour of the work. Everything before it decides whether the lawn is still good next summer.

Ground stripped and graded ready for topsoil

Stripping and grading

The old lawn or rough ground comes off, and the yard gets graded for fall before anything else.

Topsoil spread and levelled before sod

Topsoil

Screened topsoil to a real depth, so roots have somewhere to go other than compacted subsoil.

Laying and rolling

Laid tight with staggered seams and rolled, so the joints close instead of drying out and opening.

An artificial turf lawn as an alternative to sod

Or turf instead

If the yard is shaded, sloped or takes heavy use, artificial turf may be the better call. We install both.

Under the grass

Sod fails in the second summer, not the first

New sod looks good on day one no matter what is underneath it. The difference shows up the following year, when a lawn on thin topsoil over compacted ground goes patchy, holds water through the wet months and burns off in the dry ones.

The preparation is the job.

  • Graded for fall before topsoil, so water leaves the yard instead of pooling in it.
  • Topsoil to a real depth, so the roots have somewhere to go.
  • Rolled with staggered seams, so the joints close instead of drying out and opening up.

Prepared first. Laid second.

Common questions

How soon can I walk on new sod?

Light foot traffic after about a week, normal use once it has rooted in and taken its first cut. Keeping off it early is what lets the seams close properly.

How much topsoil do I actually need?

Enough for roots to live in rather than a dusting over compacted ground. A thin skim is the single most common reason a new lawn goes patchy in its second year.

Can you fix a yard that holds water first?

Yes, and on a lot of Fraser Valley lots that is the real job. If water is sitting in the yard now it will sit under the sod too, so grading and drainage go in first.
