Expert Sod Installation in Oshkosh

Installing a sod lawn is a significant investment, requiring careful attention to detail for optimal results. The Grounds Guys of Appleton and Oshkosh’s team or experts is dedicated to keeping you informed about our process and progress every step of the way.

Here's an overview of our preparation steps once our experts arrive at your property:

• Removing Old Grass and Weeds - We start by thoroughly removing any existing grass and weeds from the soil to create a clean slate for the new sod installation.
• Amending the Soil - Depending on the soil condition, we may amend it with nutrients and organic matter to ensure optimal growth conditions for the sod.
• Grading the Soil - Proper grading is essential for a level surface that drains effectively. Our team grades the soil to create a smooth and even base for the sod.
• Installing the Sod - Using industry best practices, we meticulously install the sod to achieve seamless coverage and optimal establishment.
• Setting up Irrigation or Sprinklers - Adequate water is crucial for the success of the sod. We set up irrigation or sprinkler systems to ensure that the newly installed sod receives the necessary hydration for healthy growth.

By following these preparation steps with precision and expertise, we ensure that your sod lawn installation is carried out with the utmost care and attention to detail, ultimately resulting in a lush and vibrant lawn for you to enjoy.

Caring for Fresh Sod

Fresh sod demands unique upkeep compared to a traditional lawn. Resist the urge to create precise mow lines or use your new lawn for activities like picnicking. Follow these essential tips to nurture your fresh sod and promote healthy root growth:

First Week:

1. Water three to four times daily for short intervals.
2. Avoid evening watering.
3. Keep off the lawn for at least two weeks.

Second Week:

1. Water the lawn daily for 30 minutes.

Third Week Onward:

1. Mow after three weeks, maintaining a high blade height.
2. Fertilize six weeks post-installation.
