Read Our Sod Aftercare GuideBEFORE YOUR NEW LAWN GOES IN
Work out how you'll care for the grass before installation day. New sod needs water, but you still need to follow your provider's rules and any exceptions it approves.
Look at the provider named on your water bill. Check its watering days, allowed times and current drought restrictions. Rules can change with the season and water source.
McKinney: Outdoor water use ↗Ask your water provider whether extra watering is allowed for your project, whether you need to apply and which conditions you'll need to follow. New sod doesn't get an automatic exemption.
Review McKinney’s Exemption Application ↗Check the moisture under the sod, watch the roots take hold and use the first-mow checks in our guide. If your watering setup won't support the new lawn, tell us before installation.
