Sod Installation · Metairie

St. Augustine is the most common choice in Metairie because it handles the heat, tolerates some shade, and establishes well in the local soil. Zoysia is a solid alternative if you want a denser, slower-growing lawn that needs less mowing. We'll recommend the right variety based on your yard's sun exposure and how much foot traffic it gets.

You'll want to stay off the new sod for at least two weeks to let the roots knit into the soil. Light foot traffic is okay around week three, and the lawn is generally ready for normal use and mowing by week four. We give you a specific timeline based on the time of year and how the sod is responding.

Yes — drainage assessment is part of our site prep process. If we spot grading issues that would cause water to pool on your new sod, we address them before installation. Laying sod over a drainage problem without fixing it first is a waste of money, and we won't do that.

Cost depends on the square footage, the sod variety, and how much prep work the existing yard needs. We provide an itemized on-site estimate so you know exactly what you're paying for before any work begins. There are no hidden disposal or delivery fees.

Absolutely. We do full yard installations and targeted patch jobs. Partial installs are common after construction work, tree removal, or pet damage. We match the sod variety to what's already growing in your yard whenever possible.
