Frequently Asked Questions About Sod Installation

How much does sod installation cost in Plano?
Starting installed prices are $2.35 per sq. ft. for Bermuda, $2.45 for St. Augustine and $2.55 for Zoysia, with a 450 sq. ft. minimum. Taxes and additional grading, drainage or irrigation are separate. Use the sod pricing and estimate calculator to budget, then confirm the site-specific written scope.

For more detail: Understand sod installation costs.

What is included in the installed price?
Our starting sod installation work includes delivery, old-grass removal, soil preparation and topsoil, installation, cleanup and aftercare guidance. Confirm quantities and site-specific preparation in your written quote. Additional grading, drainage and irrigation work are separate when needed.
Which grass is right for my yard?
Check sunlight first. Then think about wear, looks and mowing. Bermuda generally works well in open sun; St. Augustine and some Zoysia varieties can suit partial shade. None is a reliable answer for deep shade. Our grass comparison guide explains the differences.
Do you remove the existing grass?
Yes. Removing the existing grass is part of our starting sod installation work, followed by soil preparation before the new sod is laid. Extensive roots, debris or unusual site conditions should be identified in the estimate.
Should drainage be addressed before new sod?
Yes, if water collects or the ground stays soggy, resolve the cause before laying new sod. Covering the area with grass doesn’t fix the water problem. We can plan yard drainage alongside sod installation so the work happens in the right order.
How do I care for newly installed sod?
Check moisture beneath the new sod, watch for dry edges and uneven sprinkler coverage, and limit wear while roots establish. Watering needs change with weather and rooting; a fixed timer setting isn’t enough. Follow our Sod Aftercare Instructions for the first 90 days.
When can I walk on or mow my new lawn?
Keep unnecessary foot traffic off while the sod is rooting. Mow when it’s firmly attached and the soil can support the mower without rutting, using the recommended height for the grass. Don’t rely only on a day count. See sod aftercare and first-mow guidance.
Do you install sod in Frisco, McKinney and Allen?
Yes. See our local Frisco sod installation, McKinney sod installation and Allen sod installation pages. Include your property address with the estimate request so we can confirm access and the work needed.
