Sod Installation Thunder Bay

Whether your current lawn is struggling, or you are building at a new property; Sod Installation can be the solution to your problems. Marco’s Mowing has experience installing sod in Thunder Bay for many years. Sod is grass that is already planted, it allows a new and improved lawn to be completely installed. The main benefit of this is the ability to skip the hassle of trying to grow your lawn through fertilization. There is a different process for installing regular Sod or Resodding on a lawn.

Key Benefits of Sod Installation

  1. Instant Lawn: Sod installation offers the quickest way to achieve a beautiful, vibrant lawn at your property.
  2. Reduced Irrigation: Unlike seeding, sod requires less irrigation, needing only twice-daily watering for a few weeks after installation, compared to the four times needed for seeded lawns.
  3. Denser Lawn: Sod forms a dense, uniform lawn with no bare spots, providing a pristine and visually appealing landscape.
  4. Soil Erosion Control: Sod helps prevent soil erosion, controlling dust, mud, and erosion, especially beneficial for yards prone to becoming muddy after rainfall.
  5. Increased Property Value: A well-maintained lawn enhances the curb appeal and value of your property, making sod installation a worthwhile investment for homeowners.

Sod Installation vs. Resodding

Understanding the difference between sod installation and resodding is crucial:

  • Sod Installation:

    Ideal for properties without an existing lawn, where fresh sod is laid directly onto prepared soil.

  • Resodding:

    Involves removing the existing lawn before laying down new sod, ensuring a fresh start for your landscape.

Steps for Resodding a Lawn

Our resodding process is simple and efficient:

  1. Lawn Preparation: We remove the old lawn and prepare the soil for optimal sod growth.
  2. Topsoil Application: Fresh black earth topsoil is delivered and evenly spread across the prepared surface.
  3. Sod Installation: We carefully lay the sod on the prepped soil, ensuring tight, uniform placement for a seamless finish.
  4. Watering Schedule: To promote healthy root development, water the newly installed sod at least twice daily for a minimum of two weeks.

Maintaining Your Sod Lawn

After installation, maintaining a healthy lawn requires proper irrigation and regular lawn care. Our team can provide guidance on an effective lawn care schedule to keep your sod looking its best year-round.
