WHY SOD?
Pollution Control - Today's improved turfgrass varieties are very effective in reducing pollution. Turfgrass traps and removes dust and dirt from the air. 2,500 square feet of lawn absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and releases enough oxygen for a family of four to breathe.
Nature's Air Conditioner - Another benefit that everyone enjoys, usually without notice, is turfgrass' tremendous cooling effect. On a hot summer day, lawns will be 30 degrees cooler than asphalt and 14 degrees cooler than bare soil. The front lawns of eight houses have the cooling effect of about 70 tons of air conditioning. That's amazing when the average home has an air conditioner with just a three or four ton capacity. The cooling effect of irrigated turf reduces the amount of fuel that must be burned to provide the electricity which powers the air conditioners. Turfgrass cools the atmosphere by reflecting as much as 50% of the sun’s heat.
A Natural Filter - Runoff water in urban areas carries many pollutants. Turfgrass acts as a natural filter, reducing pollution by purifying the water passing through its root zone. A sodded yard will absorb more rain than a seeded yard; even after three years of growth. A healthy, sodded yard absorbs rainfall six times more effectively than a wheat field and four times better than a hay field. Water is actually purified as it passes through the turfgrass root zone allowing for cleaner water leaving the turfgrass root zone than what had entered into the turfgrass. This process helps restore our groundwater supplies.
Erosion & Noise Control - Stop rain and wind from eroding your lawn and creating a muddy mess.SOD can reduce noise by as much as 30%.

Mike from Dallas wrote: "I wanted to thank you and your team for the outstanding job you did at my house. I was very impressed with the quick turnaround we received when we asked for an estimate, and then when you came to my house on a Sunday to provide the estimate it was evident how much you care about customers. Everything from start to finish was excellent. Your prices were excellent and your estimates were very accurate. I would definitely recommend Lawnborne. I am extremely satisfied with how my lawn now looks, and the commitment you and your team took to ensure everything went as planned. Your employees were all very nice, and I could tell they were working very hard when I saw them.
Thanks again Jorge for an outstanding job!!!"

Our SOD Work
Choosing SOD is like picking produce at the market.
Our SOD is cut fresh from the SOD farm, then delivered to your home or business. It's green, crisp, lush and vibrant with a thick soil base. Like a fresh tomato you would pick up at the store,minus the soil.
Don't be fooled by other SOD companies that claim to have fresh grass. Why buy rotten tomatoes when you can have fresh ones right from the garden? You wouldn't buy this tomato would you? Then why buy poor quality SOD? Call or click on the form for a free estimate today.
Ordering SOD:
The entire process of getting fresh SOD on your lawn is easy. First, fill out our request form and click the submit button. If you want a "ballpark figure" you can measure the total square feet of your lawn to be replaced and include measurements in the form. Based on your measurements we can e-mail you a quote in excel or pdf format. Once we know how much SOD and prep work you need, we order your fresh grass a day ahead of schedule. The SOD is cut and delivered on the same day. There will be a delivery fee between $25 and $100 depending on how much SOD you need and where you live. Once we have planted, you must water the SOD for about 7 to 12 days for about an hour a day, preferably between 4am and 8am. Yes, it's that easy!

St. Augustine Palmetto
Palmetto grass is a semi-dwarf grass, giving it a plush appearance similar to Seville and Delmar, but Palmetto grass is less prone to becoming thatchy, even in full sunlight. The leaf blade width is similar to Bitterblue and Raleigh and finer than Floratam. When mowed high (3" - 4") it is often mistaken for fescue. The leaf blades are tapered at the tip with a rounded end, and are soft to the touch, unlike the prickly feel of Floratam. Palmetto grass will remain green longer than any other variety of St. Augustine, and will stay green much longer than Bermuda grass and Centipede grass. Palmetto grass will slowly become dormant after several heavy frosts, and will remain evergreen in temperatures below freezing if there are no hard frosts. It will first go "off color" (e.g., the bottom layer of stolons will maintain green leaves while the top leaves develop the brown tinge characteristic of frost damage) before it lapses into total dormancy. In many parts of the South (Zones 7 - 9), Palmetto grass will be semi-evergreen.
St. Augustine Raleigh
Medium leaf and stolon size. One of the most shade tolerant warm season grass. Although, it still requires 3 to 4 hours of direct sunlight with filtered sun also. It requires 2 or 3 fertilizer applications per year, with a 3-1-2 ratio fertilizer with slow release nitrogen source. Ideal mowing height is 2 - 3 inches with a rotary mower. Requires 1" of water every 3 weeks during fall, winter and spring. This increases to a maximum of 1" of water every seven days during the extreme heat of summer. Potential disease problems are gray leaf spot in the summer and brown patch in the fall. Both of these diseases are enhanced by over watering and after fertilization. These diseases can be prevented by an application of the fungicide Terraclor (PCNB). Potential insect problem is chinch bugs. This insect becomes active during hot dry periods. They are first detected by brown patches in the lawn that do not recover after watering. Make an application of Diazanon to the entire lawn and water thoroughly to eliminate the problem.
Bermuda TexTurf 10
Varietal selection of common bermuda that was developed and released by Texas A & M University. This is a course bladed bermuda. However, it is a much more lush grass than common and it does not produce a seed head like common. This grass will require 3 to 4 applications of a 3-1-2 ratio fertilizer with a slow release nitrogen source. Ideal mowing height is 1 -2 inches with a rotary mower or a reel type mower. This grass will only grow in full sun. Disease problems with Bermuda grass decline in late summer or fall. Apply Terraclor (PCNB) and water thoroughly. Insect problems are during the fall season, army worms and grub worms. Treat with Diazanon and water thoroughly. Tex Turf Ten requires 1" of water every 3 weeks during the fall, winter and spring. This increases to a maximum of 1" of water every 7 days during the extreme heat of the summer.
Bermuda Tifway 419
Combining toughness with beauty, Tifway 419 has been the most popular sports turf for the last 40 years. Its dense, rapidly spreading growth habit means quick recovery from injury, making it one of the most durable hybrid Bermudas. Tifway 419 tolerates close mowing and is highly disease resistant. For use on fairways, roughs, sports fields, and commercial and residential lawns.Tifway is a hybrid bermudagrass cross of Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis germplasma. It is characterized as having a dark green color with medium fine textured leaves. Tifway hybrid bermudagrass is dense with a medium to low growth habit. This variety is a vigorous grower and thus establishes quickly at planting. The 2001 NTEP trial conducted in Griffin, GA showed that Tifway 419 was shown to have better quality ratings than Tifsport.
Zoysia Palisades
Palisades Zoysia japonica, is a vegetatively produced, medium broad textured, high density turf noted specifically suitable for home lawns, golf fairways and roughs, sports fields, industrial parks and highway medians. Palisades is a medium to coarse textured turf noted for its shade tolerance and low water use requirements. It will tolerate mowing as close as one half inch with good weed competitions ideally as high as two to two and a half inches for home lawns. Palisades close mowing would permit use on golf course fairways especially where water availability is of concern. Irrigation water should be supplied providing for deep penetration with infrequent application to maximize plant performance and nutrient efficiency.

Choose Type of Installation:
First determine what direction your home faces, N,S,E, or West. North is the shadiest part. Then see how much sun your lawn actually gets (ex. 5hrs of sun). Basically there are three categories, FULL SUN lawns, PARTIAL SUN lawns and FULL SHADE. Full sun means your lawn gets direct sunlight all day. Partial sun means you get sunlight part of the day. Full shade means you don't get any direct sunlight, or very little (usually this is a lawn with large trees like Pecans). If you have a full sun lawn, then you should plant Bermuda SOD, If you have partial sun, you should plant St. Augustine. If you have full shade, you may consider an alternative to sod, or trim or remove some trees.

Some lawns are in need of some great topsoil. The topsoil we recommend for a new sod installation is Enriched Topsoil: this material is a blend of very deep screened loamy sand and Professional Compost. It offers consistent color and texture, as opposed to excavated sandy loam, which has proven to be inconsistent and problematic with weeds. The Enriched Topsoil is only $32.50 a cubic yard. The delivery fee is between $75 and $150 depending on where you live. There will be an additional labor fee for spreading the soil either by hand or tractor. We also offer other soil and materials: Compost, Mulch, Bedding Mixes, Lawn Mixes, Tree Mixes, Sand, Rock, Dirt/Clay, and more.

FAQ:
1.) Does your company just sell sod? We do not just sell or deliver sod (grass). We are in the business of installing sod for residential and business.
2.) What is the difference between your company and others? The biggest difference is that we only install high quality fresh green sod (grass) from one farm on the gulf coast. Other companies will sell you local poor quality sod at a big discount. Protect your investment, order from us.
3.) How do I get my order started? Fill out the request form and include measurements if possible. We can give you a ball park figure of what you should expect for materials, delivery and labor. We will also come to your home or business for a free estimate. When you agree with our estimate, we require you to pay for the sod and delivery up front. Once the job is complete, you will be asked to pay the remainder balance. We have a wireless mobilescape credit card/ check machine to swipe your payment.
4.) How do you prep the lawn? First, we ask you to be present so we can mark your sprinklers before we start the prep (if you have them). We also check to see that they are in working order and take note of any leaks and broken heads before we get started. There are three services we provide, Basic, Supreme and Just Plant, see the home page for details.
5.) Do you till? Yes, we till about three inches of the topsoil. Tilling is usually part of the Supreme Install. We also inspect the lawn before tilling and ask the customer about any wires, plumbing etc that are less than three inches deep.
6.) Will you guarantee that the sod will grow? The sod we plant is of the highest quality. SOD is considered a produce product and cannot be guaranteed to grow. We can guarantee the quality of the sod and where the sod was grown, unlike other companies.
7.) My lawn gets lots of shade, will grass grow there? We install shade tolerant sod such as St. Augustine Palmetto and Zoysia Palisades. These grasses do very well in shade, but still require some sunlight. If you have too much shade, the grass will not do well. We recommend trimming trees when possible. And remember that the North side gets the least amount of sun.
8.) My lawn has bad drainage, will the sod grow? No, the sod will die. You must get a professional drainage company to fix the problem.
9.) Should I order enriched topsoil? Yes, we recommend ordering enriched topsoil for your lawn. It helps with leveling and drainage. It also helps the roots to get established faster and provides nutrients.
10.) What is the smallest job you will do? The smallest is 30 square yards or 270 square feet. Our minimum labor price is $199.00. The delivery fee is between $25 and $100 depending on where you live.
