Sod installation for lawn renovations and new construction
Most projects require a professional landscaper or contractor to complete the pre-installation checklist. Have your landscaper contact us if they have additional questions.
No irrigation.
No prep work.
Just quality sod installation
Pre-Installation Checklist
Here's the full sequence, start to finish.
Steps 1 through 5 are site prep: they need to be done before we roll up, whether that's handled by your crew, your landscaper, or someone we point you to.
Step 6 is us. We install the sod, fresh from a regional farm, the same day it's cut.
1) Remove existing grass and vegetation
2) Excavate and rough grade
3) Add and spread topsoil
4) Install/repair irrigation
5) Apply starter fertilizer (ask us about our Starter Fertilizer)
6) NES installs the sod
How It Works
Northeast Sod specializes in the installation of sod once a site is ready. When roles and timing are clear, the process is simple and efficient.
1. Site Preparation
Before sod is installed, the area must be properly prepared and ready to receive sod. Homeowners may handle this themselves or work with a landscaper or contractor. We regularly coordinate with professionals when involved.
2. Sod Delivery & Installation
Once the site is ready, Northeast Sod schedules and installs the sod.
Our crews focus on:
-
precise layout and fit
-
clean seams and edges
-
proper handling of fresh sod
Third step is time-sensitive and handled with care.
3. After Installation
After installation:
-
The lawn is ready for watering and establishment
-
You’ll receive basic guidance for initial care
-
Ongoing maintenance is handled by you or your landscaper
-
Our role is complete once the sod is properly installed.
