Sod Installation San Antonio TX

Seeding lawns in San Antonio

There are a lot of benefits that come along with installing sod instead of seeding a lawn. The obvious one is that you have an instant lawn. If you seed your lawn it could take at least 18 months to grow, which will leave you with a bare yard in the meantime. Sodding gives you an immediate lawn and aesthetic change, as it is fully established roughly two weeks after it is placed. Our team is able to install sod in the average size yard in a matter of hours. Also, it can be installed during any season, except if the ground is frozen which doesn’t happen very often in our area. Another benefit of sod is that it requires less irrigation. If you seed your lawn, you have to water it at least four times a day in order to keep the ground moist and give the seeds the right environment to grow. In contrast, sod only needs to be watered two times a day for a couple of weeks after it is planted. Of course, you should continue to water the sod to keep it looking fresh and maintained.

Sod can also prevent soil erosion because it is able to control mud, dust and erosion since it is already fully grown. If your yard is usually really muddy when it rains, you might want to consider sod as it is a great way to eliminate the mud issue. In addition, sod is grown by professional farmers, who know the right techniques to make sure that it is healthy and as green as possible. Many sod farms use high-quality seeds or hybrid sprigs to grow their sod. The machines they use are specially designed to lift the strips of sod like rolls of a carpet. A lot of farmers will not harvest the sod until they receive an order for it so they can keep it super healthy. 

When compared to concrete, asphalt, artificial turf or just bare soil, sod absorbs heat ay better leading to an overall heat reduction in a yard. This is especially important for areas that experience a lot of hotter weather, just like Texas. Additionally, sod can help protect the environment because it reduces greenhouse gases. It does this by absorbing the carbon dioxide and then releasing oxygen, which cools the air. Having a healthy and fresh lawn can also add instant value to your home. This could be something you want to think about if you are about to sell your home. By installing sod, you could get that instant curb appeal and added value. The landscaping of your home is equally important as the interior and architectural features and can give you that extra edge to sell your home.

Before installing sod there is a lot to be done to prepare. Now to get the best result, our team will have to prepare the soil underneath. We will make sure that your soil has the right amount of nutrients and is toxin and contaminant free. We will also make sure to get you the freshest sod possible. Our team likes the sod to be harvested and installed on the same day. Once we install it, we will make sure you have all the maintenance tips possible to ensure your sod looks very healthy. The maintenance for sod is way easier than seeded grass, so you are in luck. For the first few days you will need to make sure your sod is kept moist and saturated with water. This will ensure that the roots attach themselves to the soil. Once the sod has rooted, then you only need to water the sod about an inch a week. You will also want to avoid walking all over it while it is getting established. If it is walked on a lot, the root development will be interfered with.
