When is the best time to install sod in North Texas?

Sod can be installed year-round in the DFW area, but spring (March–May) and early fall (September–October) give the best establishment results. Bermuda and Zoysia prefer warm-season installs, while St. Augustine handles cooler installs well as long as the soil isn't frozen.

Which type of sod is best for a Frisco or Plano lawn?

Bermuda is the most common choice for full-sun North Texas yards because it's heat- and drought-tolerant. St. Augustine is the better pick for shaded lots or areas under tree canopy. Zoysia is a soft, low-maintenance middle ground that handles both sun and partial shade.

How long until I can walk or mow on new sod?

Stay off the sod for the first 2 weeks while roots establish. You can usually do a first light mow at 2–3 weeks once the sod is rooted into the soil — pull a corner gently; if it resists lifting, it's ready.

How much water does new sod need?

Water new sod twice a day for the first week, keeping the soil consistently moist 4–6 inches deep. Reduce to once a day in week two, then taper to a normal deep-watering schedule (1–1.5 inches per week) by week four.

Do you handle soil prep and old grass removal?

Yes. Our sod installations include grading, tilling, soil amendment, and removal of existing turf or weeds so the new sod has a clean, level base to root into.
