Benefits of Sod Installation
Choosing sod installation offers numerous benefits compared to traditional seeding. Sod provides an instant lawn, offering immediate aesthetic appeal and functionality. It prevents soil erosion, reduces mud and dust, and establishes a dense turf that is resistant to weeds. Additionally, sod requires less water to establish compared to seed, making it an eco-friendly option for homeowners.

Our Sodding Installation Process
1. Site Assessment and Preparation
Our sod installation process begins with a thorough site assessment. We evaluate your soil conditions, sunlight exposure, and existing landscape to determine the best type of sod for your property. Preparation is crucial for successful sodding; we remove any old grass, weeds, and debris, and then grade the soil to ensure proper drainage. Soil is then amended with necessary nutrients to promote healthy root growth.
2. Selection of High-Quality Sod
Glenwood Group sources the highest quality sod that is suited to the Ottawa climate. We offer a variety of sod types, including Kentucky Bluegrass, Fescue, and Ryegrass, each selected for its durability, color, and texture. Our experts will recommend the best sod variety based on your specific lawn conditions and usage requirements.
3. Installation and Care
Once the site is prepared and the sod is selected, our team carefully lays the sod in a staggered pattern to ensure tight seams and minimal visible lines. We then roll the sod to eliminate air pockets and ensure good contact with the soil. After installation, we provide detailed care instructions, including watering schedules and mowing guidelines, to help you maintain your new lawn.
Maintenance Tips for Your New Sod
Watering
Proper watering is crucial for the successful establishment of your new sod. We recommend watering your lawn immediately after installation and maintaining a consistent watering schedule for the first few weeks. The soil should be kept moist but not waterlogged. Early morning watering is ideal to reduce evaporation and fungal growth.
Mowing
Avoid mowing your new sod until it has established strong roots, typically about 2-3 weeks after installation. When you do start mowing, set your mower blades to the highest setting to avoid cutting the grass too short. Regular mowing will promote a dense, healthy lawn.
Fertilizing
Fertilizing your sod is essential for maintaining its health and vibrancy. We recommend applying a balanced, slow-release fertilizer about six weeks after installation. Regular fertilization, at least twice a year, will ensure your lawn remains lush and green.
