Fresh sod delivery, prep, install, and rolling for new construction, storm repair, and commercial turf resets. We prep soil so roots take hold instead of baking on top of hardpan.
Soil-smart prep and clean seams for fast establishment. This page focuses on where the service fits, what drives pricing, and how it changes across Gulf Coast conditions.
Sod is only as good as what is underneath. We remove trash roots, correct low spots, amend only where soil tests or experience say it helps, and finish a gently firm bed before the first piece drops.
On Gulf Coast heat, timing matters. We coordinate delivery so pallets are not sitting, we stagger seams, and we roll for root contact without squeezing out the water the turf needs.
Commercial entrances, HOA common areas, and backyard rebuilds all get the same finish discipline: clean edges, irrigation heads protected, and handoff watering instructions you can follow.
Same four-step discipline on every site.
We till or rake as needed, address compaction, and set smooth grade for drainage.
We add starter fertilizer only when appropriate and lay sod to stagger seams off traffic lines.
We roll for contact, check for gaps, and set initial watering intervals.
We review first two weeks of watering and mowing height so the investment roots in.

Final numbers depend on access, moisture, haul distance, and how much hand work sits next to machine work. You get a written scope before we start.

Josh has handled several projects for us. He built a rock road in our backyard for our boat, and we didn't have to think twice about it. He handled everything from start to finish and the work was excellent. We also had a swimming pool removed, which left our backyard a mess. Josh brought in dirt, regraded the area, and it looks amazing now. We liked his work so much we had him put in a brand new lawn for my mother, including scraping out the old lawn, laying new sod, and installing an irrigation system. Her lawn looks incredible. Josh is efficient, professional, and fairly priced.
Josh prepped our double lot and installed sod. Our lawn is now the best in the neighborhood, and we get people slowing down just to look at it. He maintains it without needing any input from us, which we appreciate. The cost was competitive and reasonable.

These answer-first guides help owners and builders understand pricing, drainage, scope boundaries, and what changes the job.
If water problems come from one low edge or a blocked swale, a focused drainage fix may be enough. If the whole yard, lot, or pad drains poorly, full regrading is usually the better long-term answer.
