Sod Installation in Metro Atlanta
New sod laid on prepared soil for an instant, healthy lawn that establishes well in Metro Atlanta conditions.
How we approach it
Sod gives you a finished lawn right away. How well it takes depends on preparation: removing old turf, grading and amending the soil before it goes down.
We match the grass type to your sun and use, and coordinate irrigation so the new lawn roots in.
We can install these grass varieties, and we match the variety to your sun and how you use the yard:
- Zoysia: Zeon, Emerald, Meyer, Zenith, Empire, Geo, Zorro, El Toro, and JaMur
- Bermuda: TifTuf, Tifway 419, TifGrand, and Celebration
- Fescue: Turf-Type Tall Fescue and Kentucky 31 Tall Fescue

Common questions
How much does sod installation cost?
It depends on size, site conditions and materials. We quote after walking the property with you, so the price reflects your actual project.
When is the best time to lay sod in Atlanta?
Warm-season grasses establish best in late spring through summer. We will recommend timing for your grass type.
What grass varieties can you install?
We can install zoysia (Zeon, Emerald, Meyer, Zenith, Empire, Geo, Zorro, El Toro, and JaMur), Bermuda (TifTuf, Tifway 419, TifGrand, and Celebration), and fescue (Turf-Type Tall Fescue and Kentucky 31 Tall Fescue). We match the variety to your sun and how you use the lawn.
Do you check drainage before installing sod?
Yes. We check grade and drainage first. If water is standing or the lawn won’t shed it, we will tell you what needs to be fixed before new sod goes down.
