Sod Installation Service 84405
A good lawn care service in Ogden Utah recognizes the right way to lay sod. Green Castle Lawn Care and Pest Control begins 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 very best time to install sod is in the springtime or autumn when its not overly warm. After that well consult with you to guarantee the sod gets enough water to take hold.
We usually lay sod in strip rolls yet first we prep the dirt by eliminating all weeds and other plants. After that we can apply some garden compost and let it sit for a while if we have the time before rolling out the sod. Afterwards we till and rake and examine the soil for proper pH. In this manner we ensure you have the correct topsoil.
We always lay sod in good rows and water it as soon as were done. Nevertheless we first level out sod that has actually bunched up as we go and get rid of pockets of air so it develops roots. Naturally we utilize utility knives to cut the sod as required see to it everything is flush and fill in all voids using leftover scraps. If you have an automatic sprinkler we cut openings for the heads. Sometimes we need to slice smaller rows for around flower beds sidewalks and driveways.
As soon as all the sod is laid we make use of a roller machine to push the sod into the topsoil which locks in moisture and helps sod grow root systems. Well roll one way then an additional way vertical making use of a grid pattern. We try to stay clear of laying sod after hefty rainfall because the roller can do damages.
Then we ask you to water the sod immediately and at routine periods. You can evaluate to ensure its obtaining water by raising an edge to ensure its moist however not dry or muddy. Try to water first thing in the morning daily for a week and try not to walk on it as that can damage 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 initially and cut on the highest possible setting. Keep in mind that we offer grass mowing services.
Green Castle Lawn Care and Pest Control can then establish a strategy to keep your grass weed and pest-free and apply the appropriate nutrients as needed.
