What type of grass is best for Lowcountry lawns?

Warm-season grasses are well-suited to the South Carolina Lowcountry's heat and humidity. We help you select a variety based on your property's sun exposure, soil, and maintenance preferences.

How soon can I walk on new sod?

We recommend avoiding foot traffic for the first two to three weeks while roots establish. We provide specific care guidance based on your sod variety and the season.

Can you install irrigation at the same time as new sod?

Yes. Installing irrigation before or alongside new sod ensures your investment has the consistent watering it needs to establish properly. We coordinate both services when needed.

How long does it take for new sod to establish?

Most sod begins rooting within two to three weeks, with full establishment typically taking several weeks to a couple of months depending on the season, watering, and grass variety.
