Sod Installation

Sod Installation


At Rivera’s we have a six-step process prior installing your new sod


1. Know what type of soil the property has

2. Choose the grass

3. Prepare the soil and level the ground

4. Lay the sod

5. Water

6. Roll the grass



The two types of Sod that we install are: St. Augustine, and Bermuda


St. Augustine is a gorgeous, green color with a dense grow that makes it suitable for moderate foot traffic for your children or pets. It is most

common type of grass that we install due to our warmer climate, its shade tolerant and drought resistance. This type of sod requires watering

several times a week.


Bermuda is a dark green in color with a medium fine texture. It is the most common sod in sports turf because of fast growth and recovery from

high foot traffic. It is drought tolerant and requires full sunlight for better results.
