Kentucky bluegrass is ideal for our region’s climate, bringing a lush, deep-green lawn that’s durable, attractive, and ready to thrive.
We don’t just install your sod — we set you up for long-term success. Every installation includes a custom watering plan tailored to your lawn’s needs so you know precisely how often and how much to water your new turf to help it take root fast and stay healthy. Proper watering right after installation and throughout the first few weeks is critical to establish strong roots and ensure your lawn flourishes.

New sod needs consistent moisture to establish. Water lightly 2–3 times per day for the first week to keep the sod and soil moist (about 1″ per day). In week two, water deeply once daily. By week three, reduce to 2–3 deep waterings per week. Avoid heavy traffic until roots have taken hold.
