The certified professionals at Pugh’s Earthworks can assist when sometimes sod replacement is best!

Damaged Grass

Sod Replacement

Most property owners at one time have experienced lawn issues. Sometimes the severity of the damage to a lawn, whether due to insects or disease, requires immediate action. The simplest and least expensive option is to buy a bag of grass seed and throw it on the damaged spots. However, that is often not the best solution. Sometimes laying fresh new sod is the best way to restore the beauty to your commercial or residential property.

Laying sod is a methodical process and you have to make sure soil you are placing it on is healthy. Putting sod on unhealthy soil will only result if the new grass not taking hold and you will have lost time and money. The certified landscape technicians and Pugh’s Earthworks will know how to best prepare the fresh soil.

The process of preparing the soil will require proper tools, machinery, soil and fertilizer. Below are some of those items that a professional landscape technician from Pugh’s Earthworks will have available for the project:

  • Rototiller
  • Soil test kit
  • Spade
  • Topsoil
  • Starter fertilizer
  • Rake or lawn roller

Once again the technician will first focus on the soil quality. This is so critical to the new sod taking root. A few things that they will focus on are the pH level, the depth of the new top soil and the mixture of compost. They will target a pH level of 6 to 6.5 typically and and new top soil depth of about six inches. Our trained technicians will know the proper settings for the rototiller and the proper amounts of compost and fertilizer.

The art of laying the actual sod is something our technicians are skilled at as well. Sod must be laid right away once it is deliver or you run the risk of it drying out and the roots suffering. As our technicians position the sod they will know exactly how to position each piece of sod for the most efficient growth.

If your budget is a bit tight there is of course always the option of seeding or reseeding the lawn. The landscape technicians at Pugh’s Earthworks will know the type of seed that is best for the commercial or residential property they are working on. Improper seeds will have the same effect as sodding on bad soil. The results will be mediocre at best. There are so many elements to selecting the proper seeds for percent of weed content, germination rate, weight and season of planting. These are all aspects that a trained and certified technician will have knowledge of.

If your property is suffering from lawn damage, call the experts at Pugh’s Earthworks! We have more than 20 years experience in the landscaping and lawn maintenance business.
