New Lawn Installations

Our Areas of Expertise:

There are many challenges to growing a new lawn in Massachusetts. Although there are a few different ways you can plant a new lawn, the method you choose will ultimately depend on your budget and the time of year you are looking to do your new lawn installation.

Loam and Seed

When it comes to installing a new lawn it is generally cheaper in the short term to use the loam and seed method. However, if you are going to loam and seed you have a limited window of time to plant in the Fall. If you plant in the spring or summer, heat-loving weeds will quickly overtake your new grass. You will have to use lots of water and fertilizers to help your new lawn and you will most likely need to reseed in the fall.

Sod Installations

Installing sod offers many advantages over the loam and seed method. Installing sod gives you that instant gratification of a lush green lawn right away, which is particularly great for customers who are building a new home or doing major renovations. Since sod already has an established root system we also have much greater windows of opportunity to plant. The established root system is also going to help prevent weeds from coming through and will make the lawn more resistant to various ground diseases, bacteria and fungi.
