What makes us unique is the fact that we grow our own sod and landscape ornamentals on our many farms located throughout the tri-county area in NC. We are the only company that can offer you the complete package, and remember, when you buy direct from the grower you save! We offer rough and final grading as well as sod installation and landscaping with Centipede sod cut fresh from our farms directly to you.
Make a sketch of your lot and then measure the area you wish to sod. Calculate the square feet of sod needed (length in feet x width in feet) then divide by 9 to convert to square yards. It is essential to begin watering new turf grass sod within a half hour after it is laid on the soil. Apply at least 1in (2.5cm) of water so that the soil beneath the turd is very wet.
Ideally the soil 3 to 4 inches (7 to 10 cm) below the surface will be moist. We recommend a root starter solution for newly planted shrubs and trees. This encourages root growth and aids in transplant shock especially for field grown or bare root ornamentals.

How To Calculate The Amount Of Sod You Need
Report
Make a sketch of your lot and then measure with a tape or wheel the area you wish to sod.
Measure the length in feet.
Measure the width in feet.
Multiply this together and then divide that total by 9.
This will tell you how many square yards you will need.
If you need help just call!
Try and square everything in your measurements even around a bed area or around a sidewalk as that will help when allowing for trim work.
It is critical to properly prepare the ground first before ordering sod because prompt instillation on the day of delivery is crucial to a strong beginning for your lawn.

Tilling to a depth of 4"- 6" smoothing the soil, removing rocks and sticks and roots.
Water heavily to see if water puddles in any low spots.
If so, add top soil or regrade to eliminate low spots.

How To Water New Turfgrass Sod
Report
It is essential to begin watering new turf grass sod within a half hour after it is laid on the soil.
Apply at least 1in (2.5cm) of water so that the soil beneath the turd is very wet.
Ideally the soil 3 to 4 inches.
Watering Tip #1: Pull back a corner of the turf and push a screwdriver or other sharp tool into the soil.
It should push in easily and have moisture along the first 3 or 4 in (7 to 10 cm), or you need to apply more water.
Watering Tip #2: Make absolutely certain that water is getting into all areas of your new lawn, regardless of the type of sprinkling system you use.

Maintaining Your Centipede Lawn
Report
Once your lawn is established, fertilize and water only as necessary to maintain a turf tight enough to resist weed invasion and to keep the grass in a healthy condition so that it is producing adequate growth for a fresh, neat appearance.
Dull mower blades chew the grass rather than clip it, leaving it with a scarred appearance and in an unhealthy condition.
Always keep your mower blades sharp.
If mowing is delayed to the point that more is cut off than left on, the grass will suffer in appearance.
