Sod Installation and Benefits
At Shelton Exterior Designs, we pride ourselves in transforming your landscape with our professional sod installation services. Our expertise in the landscaping industry ensures that your lawn will become not only more beautiful but also a thriving, lush area that enhances the curb appeal of your property.
What is Sod?
Sod, also known as turf, is a ready-to-use sheet of pre-grown grass and soil held together by its roots and a thin layer of biodegradable material. It is an efficient way to establish a new lawn quickly without waiting for seeds to grow.
Benefits of Sod
- Instant Results: Unlike seeding, sod provides immediate results. You won't have to wait weeks for your landscape to transform aesthetically.
- Erosion Control: Sod immediately helps in preventing soil erosion and controls mud, providing a solid surface for activities or landscaping.
- Heat Absorption: Natural grass acts as a cooling agent, absorbing sunlight and reducing heat around your property.
- Minimal Maintenance: Once established, sod requires less watering than newly seeded lawns, reducing long-term maintenance efforts.
- Soil Protection: Fresh sod creates a protective barrier against weeds and pests, as well as enhances soil structure and fertility.

- How is sod better than seeding a lawn?
Sod provides an instant lawn, saving you time and avoiding the long germination period of seed. It also helps prevent soil erosion and establishes a lawn more quickly with fewer weeds compared to traditional seeding.
- How long does sod installation take?
The duration of sod installation depends on the size of the area. Typically, most residential projects are completed within one to two days, ensuring minimal disruption to your schedule.
- When is the best time to install sod?
Sod can be installed almost any time of the year, except during extreme temperatures. However, spring and fall are ideal due to milder weather conditions, allowing sod roots to establish quicker.
- How soon can I use my lawn after sod installation?
It's recommended to wait at least two to three weeks to allow the sod to properly root. This helps ensure a stable and lush lawn when you begin to walk or play on it.
- What maintenance does sod require after installation?
Initially, sod requires regular watering to establish roots. After that, typical lawn maintenance like mowing, watering, and fertilizing is necessary to keep your lawn healthy and vibrant. Our team provides detailed post-installation care instructions.

Snapshots of their experiences
Mitchell Shelton has done outstanding lawn care work at our house as well as various other projects such as seeding, fertilizing, and other lawn care projects. His team is detail oriented and is very responsive.
I’ve used Shelton Exteriors for mulch installation, plant removal, and trimming. Mitchel and his team are professional and delivers excellent results.
Mitchel has been wonderful to work with. He has been taking care of my yard this season, mowing, trimming and he also did spring clean up. He trimmed all the bushes, cleaned the beds, and laid mulch. He did a fantastic job with the spring clean up and he does a great job every week with mowing. His communication has been great as well. I would highly recommend Mitchel for any yard needs and projects you are looking to have done.
