A good lawn care service in Ogden Utah understands the proper way to lay sod. Green Castle Lawn Care and Pest Control starts by measuring your lawn with a measuring wheel. Then some math equations enter into play to guarantee we get the correct amount of sod. The most effective time to install sod is in the springtime or autumn when its not overly warm. After that well speak with you to make sure the sod obtains sufficient water to take hold.
We commonly lay sod in strip rolls but initially we prep the soil by eliminating all weeds and other plants. Then we can use some compost and let it sit for a while if we have time prior to rolling out the sod. Afterwards we till and rake and check the soil for proper pH. In this manner we assure you have the correct topsoil.
We always lay sod in neat rows and water it as soon as were finished. Nonetheless we first level out sod that has actually bunched up as we go and eliminate pockets of air so it develops roots. Naturally we make use of utility knives to slice the sod as required ensure everything is flush and fill in all spaces utilizing remaining scraps. If you have a lawn sprinkler we cut openings for the heads. Occasionally we need to cut smaller rows for around flower beds sidewalks and driveways.
When all the sod is laid we use a roller device to push the sod into the topsoil which secures moisture and helps sod grow root systems. Well roll one way then one more way perpendicular making use of a grid pattern. We try to prevent laying sod after hefty rain because the roller can do damages.
Then we ask you to water the sod as soon as possible and at routine periods. You can evaluate to guarantee its getting water by lifting a corner to ensure its damp but not dry or muddy. Attempt to water first thing in the morning each day for a week and attempt not to walk on it as that can harm the sod. After the initial week its alright to water every other day. You can mow when the grass is three inches high. Have your lawnmower blade sharpened first and cut on the highest setting. Keep in mind that we offer lawn mowing services.
Green Castle Lawn Care and Pest Control can then create a strategy to maintain your grass weed and pest-free and apply the appropriate nutrients as required.
