Sod Services

At Tony and Son’s Landscaping, our sod services have two parts: site preparation and sod installation.

Site Preparation

Before we install your sod, we make sure that your site is prepared using the following process.

1. Lawn clearing: Tony and Son’s  will clear out all existing grass, debris (etc.) and dispose of it properly.

2. Rough grade work: We use landscape grade for draining water away from building structures and general grading for core shape.

3. Top soil: Healthy grass needs at least 4” of top soil to flourish. Tony and Son’s Landscaping uses a pulverized screened soil with peat moss mixture or custom mixed soils specifically for your project. The amount of soil used with amendments and fertilizers will be based on the spec for your project.

4. Soil conditioning: This is the process of cultivating, tilling, or mixing the new soil into your existing sub-grade. At Tony and Son’s Landscaping, we use power or hydraulic equipment specifically designed for this process.

5. Final grade work: We’ll add the final touches with the new soil, rake it, and roll it smooth in preparation for sod installation.

6. Rolling: A lawn roller or power roller is used to smooth out, settle, and firm the grade before the sod is installed.
