Sod Installation

Sod Installation in New Orleans

Looking to get help with your lawn sod installation project? Installing sod is a quick way to improve the look of your lawn while greatly reducing weed and pest pressure. Our crew handles the heavy lifting from grass selection through laying and watering until the lawn establishes.

How It Works

Turn-Key Sod Installation

We are TURF SOD EXPERTS providing the turn-key service you are looking for. From new construction to landscape and lawn renovations, laying sod is what we do.

01

Pick the Right Grass

You tell us your yard's shade level, traffic, and goals. We pick the cultivar that fits, from St. Augustine for shade to Bermuda for full sun.

02

Site Prep and Removal

The crew comes to your property, removes existing grass and weeds, grades the soil, and prepares the surface so the new sod has direct soil contact for fast root-down.

03

Fresh Sod Laid and Watered

Sod is cut the morning of installation, brought straight from the farm, and laid in pieces tight against each other. We water the new lawn in and walk you through the establishment schedule.

Grass Varieties

Best Grass Sod for Your Property

All grasses are selected for their beauty and ability to thrive in our South Louisiana climate. We supply the best turf grasses to property owners, business owners, builders, and contractors. Compare the four varieties side by side if you are still deciding which one fits your yard.

St. Augustine Grass

Forms a thick, lush lawn and grows well in moderate shade. The default for shaded New Orleans yards with mature oaks.

Cultivars: Classic, Palmetto, Raleigh, Seville

Zoysia Grass

Soft, dense, and lush. Grows well in full sun and moderate shade. Strong recovery from kid and pet traffic.

Cultivars: Palisades, Empire, El Toro, Zeon

Bermuda Grass

Handles high temperature, full sun, and is very drought resistant. Best for open subdivision lots without canopy.

Cultivars: Tifway 419, TifTuf, Celebration

Centipede Grass

Medium-bladed, light green, and low maintenance. Less mowing, less fertilizer, and less hassle than other grasses.

Cultivars: TifBlair, Common Centipede
