It survives heat better than newly seeded grass and fixes severely damaged or post-construction lawns immediately. For homeowners who do not want to wait a full season for seed to mature, sod is the answer. ## Common Questions ### How long until I can walk on new sod? + Light foot traffic is fine after about a week. Moderate use takes 3-4 weeks once roots have knit into the soil. ### Sod vs seed — which should I choose? + Sod is faster, works in summer, and gives instant curb appeal. Seed costs less and works best in fall. Many properties get a hybrid: sod the front yard, seed the back. ### When is the best time to install sod? + Spring and fall are ideal. Summer is doable with disciplined watering. Winter installs are not recommended in Maryland. ### How much do I water new sod? + Daily for the first 2 weeks, then taper off. We leave a written schedule at the install. ### What kind of sod do you use? + Premium tall fescue blend grown on regional Maryland farms. It matches what does well in Harford County's clay soil and freeze-thaw winters. ## Towns We Serve Available across every corner of Harford County, Maryland.
