Our Approach

Green Grass Growth

With hundreds of installs completed, we have cracked the code to solve homeowners' lawn challenges. Green Grass Growth is the area's only sod installation service of its kind. Discover what makes our approach different.

Quality Locally-Sourced Sod

Quality sod sourcing helps us deliver green grass growth. We seasonally inspect and test sod farms across NC to identify the area's sod farmers that deliver well-cut rolls with good color and fertilization.

The Right Sod for Your Lawn's Environment

Lawn environments vary and therefore the right sod for lawns does too. Peak Sodding provides homeowners sod options that will work for their lawn — whether full sun, partial shade, or heavy traffic.

Optimal Sub-Base Preparation

Prior to sod installation, your lawn needs to be prepped to create an optimal foundation for sod establishment. Whether it is debris removal, grading for drainage, or the addition of soil, a new lawn's success depends on it. Peak Sodding has the tools and equipment to get the preparation done right.

Sod Installation for Your Lawn Environment

Real lawn challenges we've solved

Peak Sodding solves homeowners' lawn challenges by selecting, then installing, the right sod for the lawn environment. Here are two of the challenges we have solved.

Sunny / shade mix

The client reached out to us looking to get a lawn established on an area that had been mostly mud and weeds for months. They were tired of the constant mess and eager to have grass to enjoy and do away with the mud.

Most important to the client was having a lawn that could tolerate the environment, but also something that would not require significant maintenance. Finding a solution that would eliminate the muddiness and erosion was key.

Sod Recommendation: The recommendation boiled down to a medium and a high-grade Zoysia. Especially due to the sun/shade mix, Zoysia was the clear choice based upon their preferences.

Scope of Work: After a thorough assessment, we went forward with a Zeon Zoysia turf due to its exceptional tolerance of both sun and shade. The thickness of the turf would allow for water flow to be evenly distributed throughout the lawn as opposed to single rivers of water forming. This would solve the problem of erosion and, finally, we brought in soil to evenly smooth out the entire surface areas of the lawn to ensure a proper grade.

Project Highlights: Taking the time to understand the why behind this project allowed us to connect with exactly what our clients were hoping for this lawn.

The client was tired of their lawn which was entirely weeds. They wanted something thick, lush, and lower maintenance. They knew they would have to do some maintenance, but they wanted to ensure this grass would not be easily taken over with weeds again.

Sod Recommendation: After a conversation about their preferences and the needs of their lawn, we decided on a Zeon Zoysia.

Scope of Work: The weeds on this lawn were thick. It needed a thorough scraping and soil brought in to really smooth out the ground and give the new sod an excellent root base.

Interesting Challenge: On the day of installation, due to an entry error from the supplier, the delivery man showed up with one roll of sod. One. While it is easy to look back and chuckle, it meant we had to delay the actual installation until after the weekend. It all worked out in the end.
Sod Installation: How We Work

We will strive to keep you informed from start to finish

If you are considering replacing your lawn with us, here are four steps in our process that might help you better understand how we would work to give you the lawn you will love.

1
Consultation and Estimate
Within 24 hours of your request, we will contact you to schedule a consultation. We will come out, assess your lawn's condition, and professionally measure the yard. Peak Sodding will walk through sod installation costs and provide a written estimate with special requests noted.
2
You Let Us Know You Are Ready
When you have notified Peak Sodding of your intention to proceed, we will request a signed estimate and provide you a confirmation receipt. A deposit is required to begin the job with the balance paid upon completion.
3
Scheduling
Projects are placed into the production schedule based on your preference for dates and our existing bookings. Should weather or other issues alter the schedule, you will be notified proactively.
4
Friendly Communication Policy & Door Knocks
Peak Sodding will communicate with you throughout the process proactively. Any changes are always made known to you immediately so you are never caught off guard. On install day, our team makes a point to deliver friendly door knocks to let you know of our arrival and departure.

Pre-Install
Inspect the Sod

Healthy sod is at the root of what we do. Prior to installation, our team will inspect the sod. We are very intentional about scheduling our install deliveries so that the sod is placed in the yard within 24 to 48 hours for the most optimal chance of rooting quickly.

Install Day AM
Prepare the Site

The preparation for sod installation typically takes half a day and consists of removing the old grass and prepping for the new. We will be excavating and removing all debris that could interfere with root establishment and water movement. The team will be grading the soil for drainage, tilling around trees, and redistributing or adding additional topsoil as needed. Any removed material will be hauled away by Peak Sodding, unless otherwise discussed during the consultation.

Install Day PM
Let's Install

With the scope of most projects, the installation of a new lawn will typically take one afternoon. For larger projects with greater scope, the process can take longer. Once the installation process is complete, the team will clean up and dispose of any unwanted materials. You will receive a knock on the door upon completion to ensure nothing is missed, then watering guidelines will be provided and your installation will officially be complete.

Post-Install
Time To Water

Post-installation watering is critical to the success of your new lawn. Establishing a healthy rooting system for the sod in its new environment requires ample hydration. We advise our customers of the recommended watering schedule and will provide homeowners with written instructions for when and how long to water during the critical first two weeks post-install.

Next 2 Weeks
Stay Consistent

We typically advise our clients to water consistently for the first two weeks to keep the below-turf soil moist for optimal rooting. Since weather conditions and your lawn environment could play a factor, our team will advise you of any specific watering recommendations for your project.
