🔨 Our Sod Installation Process – Done Right from the Ground Up

At JP Property Maintenance, we follow a step-by-step process to ensure your new sod is installed correctly and sets the stage for a lush, healthy lawn. Here’s how we do it:

1. Site Assessment & Quote

We start by reviewing the size, condition, and shape of your lawn. This includes slope, sun exposure, and existing soil quality — so we can give you an accurate, all-in quote with no surprises.

2. Old Grass and Root Removal

Using professional sod cutters, we strip away all existing turf and its root system. This clears out weeds, disease-prone patches, and compacted growth that can interfere with your new lawn.

3. Soil Grading and Leveling

We lightly grade and level the area to ensure proper drainage and a smooth final result. If needed, we add screened topsoil or loam to support better rooting and water absorption.

4. Starter Fertilizer Application

A slow-release starter fertilizer is applied before sod installation to jump-start growth and help the new turf establish roots quickly.

5. Precise Sod Placement

We install sod in a staggered, brickwork-style pattern for visual appeal and stronger joint stability. Each roll is placed tightly together to avoid air gaps or future weed growth.

6. Rolling for Soil Contact

Once installed, the sod is rolled using a lawn roller to remove air pockets and press the roots firmly into the soil. This is essential for strong, consistent root development.

7. Seam Filling and Edge Work

After rolling, we inspect the seams between sod rolls and lightly fill any visible cracks with soil to prevent drying out or weed intrusion. We also clean up all edges around paths, patios, and beds.

8. Watering and Aftercare Instructions

We finish by thoroughly watering the lawn and providing clear instructions for daily watering, mowing timelines, and when to resume regular use.

💬 Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long does sod installation take?

A: Most small and mid-size lawns can be installed in 1 day. Large or complex properties may take 2 days.

Q: When is the best time to install sod in Edmonton?

A: Spring and early fall offer ideal conditions. We install throughout the growing season, weather permitting.

Q: Can I walk on the sod right away?
