When Can We Install Sod?
Sod can be installed anytime from mid-April to late November, provided the ground isn’t frozen. Unlike seeding, which requires more time to establish, sod can take root quickly, giving you a beautiful lawn in no time. Our team ensures that the sod is installed before the soil freezes, allowing roots to establish themselves properly.

Factors that affect the cost of sodding ( New lawn installation ):
Grading issues – uneven areas, or significant changes to the terrain, may affect the cost of installing a new lawn
Project size – the larger the area to be sodded the lower will be the cost per square foot.
Quality of existing soil – depleted, clay soil requires more than just one inch of soil to be worked in.
Sod Installation process in Newmarket:
​
1. Remove and dispose of any existing grass/ lawn by cutting it with a sod cutter for smaller residential sodding projects and using the bigger machinery for commercial projects.
​
2. Leveling the topsoil.
Adding the topsoil and leveling it to make sure there is enough room to root in. Also very important in the installation of grass is to ensure that the land slopes correctly to avoid any puddling of water after a rainfall.
3. Using a lawn roller and final leveling.
A sod roller is a heavy drum that is filled with water and can be pushed, using a handle, across the lawn to reveal the low and high spots for better leveling.
​
4.Laying down new sod (turf rolls) and rolling again to help the sod make good contact with the soil, remove air pockets under the sod strips, and press the roots firmly into the soil. If air pockets are not removed, they can potentially result in drying of the root system, causing dead spots on the surface. Our sod is always fresh, cut out at the sod farm, and delivered to your property on the installation day.
​
5.Watering new lawn.
The final step is watering. We will give the grass about 1 inch of water right after the sod installation process is finished.
6. Cleaning up after the sod installation.
We offer 90 days WARRANTY on labor and sod. LEARN MORE about our sod warranty.
