What Is Sod?

Think of sod as a ready-made lawn—it’s a package deal, containing soil, root systems, and grass, all together in rolls and slabs. There’s no easier or faster way of planting a new lawn than installing sod. Sod is one of the most common ways of creating lawns or refreshing lawns for homeowners and business owners alike.

The Benefits Of Installing Sod

There are a number of benefits to installing sod in your yard:
  • Instant gratification—you’ll have a new lawn that dramatically improves curb appeal.
  • Sod helps prevent erosion from wind and water.
  • Your new sod won’t need herbicide for 2-4 years after installation.
  • Sod requires less watering (irrigation) than a seeded lawn.
  • Lawns provide a beautiful place to relax and play.
A beautiful new lawn provides both aesthetic and functional benefits. A well-mowed lawn can help discourage pests, and lawns help improve air quality all while improving aesthetics. Sod provides you with an instant lawn—and our high-quality sod is grown to endure Winnipeg’s harsh climate. You can bring your lawn from drab to beautiful in no time flat with our sod installation services.

Sodding Vs. Seeding

Sodding and seeding are the two main ways of refreshing your lawn; seeding involves planting new seeds on your lawn (or, if you don’t have a lawn, into the soil), while sodding involves transplanting grass, soil, and a fully intact root system.

There are advantages to both sodding and seeding:

Advantages of seeding

Generally, we recommend installing sod when you don’t already have a healthy lawn, while seeding is perfect when your lawn is already well established. You can seed on small patches of dead lawn, but we recommend sod for larger bare areas.

Our Sod Installation Process

We take a number of steps to ensure that the sod installation process goes as smoothly as possible. Here’s how it works:

Initial consultation

Everything starts with a consultation call. We take the time to understand your needs. Is this a brand-new lawn or are you replacing old turf? Do you need sod for the entire area or just for certain spots? Do you have obstructions like trees? Do you have an existing irrigation system? Once we’ve got the answer to these and other questions, we can give you a detailed estimate for sod installation.

On-site testing and planning

To ensure we get the right sod for the job—and in the right amounts—we’ll visit your yard. We may take samples of your soil to test the pH and nutrient levels. We’ll also measure your yard and take note of any obstructions that we may need to work around.

Installing your sod

Once initial preparations have been completed, our Winnipeg sod installation professionals start their work. We’ll remove old and dead plant life, prepare the soil, lay and press down the sod, then water it extensively to ensure that it starts to root in the existing soil.

The Best Sod Types For Winnipeg Weather

Cool-season grasses are best suited to Winnipeg’s climate. You’ll typically want a blend of different grasses in your sod to ensure the best possible performance. Once your sod is installed, it can be a good idea to overseed it with different cool-season varieties. Typically, some combination of these three varieties are found in Winnipeg lawns:
The right sod for your yard will depend on a number of different factors, including your soil, how much shade your lawn gets, the orientation of your lawn, and more. Our team will help you determine which sod is best for your lawn!
