Sod Installation & Lawn Renovation

An Instant Lawn That Lasts

Sod gives you a mature, established lawn in just one day. Unlike seed that takes months to fill in, fresh sod creates an instant green carpet you can enjoy within weeks. You get immediate erosion control, weed suppression, and a beautiful lawn that adds value to your property right away.

Bell Gardens homeowners choose sod for reliability and fast results. We install premium turf varieties bred for Southern California conditions. These grasses handle heat, require less water than older varieties, and stay green with proper care. Your new lawn starts with healthy, disease-free sod that establishes quickly in our climate.

The Right Way to Install Sod

Successful sod installation depends on proper soil preparation. Here is how we ensure your new lawn thrives:

• Complete removal of old grass, weeds, and debris from the installation area
• Soil grading to ensure proper drainage and eliminate low spots that collect water
• Soil amendment with organic matter to improve texture and water retention
• Fresh sod delivery and installation within 24 hours of harvest for best quality
• Tight seam placement with staggered joints like brickwork for strength
• Thorough watering immediately after installation to eliminate air pockets

We never skip soil prep to save time or money. Poor preparation leads to uneven surfaces, drainage problems, and weak root establishment. Your new lawn needs the right foundation to look great and last for years.

Lawn Renovation for Struggling Turf

Not every lawn needs complete replacement. Sometimes renovation makes more sense than starting over. We assess your current lawn condition and recommend the most cost-effective solution for your situation.

Renovation options include overseeding thin areas, aerating compacted soil, fixing drainage issues, addressing pest or disease problems, and improving irrigation coverage. These targeted fixes cost less than full sod installation while delivering significant improvements. When more than 40 percent of your lawn has problems, replacement typically makes better financial sense.
