Within a few hours, turf grass sod transforms a yard from bare soil to a living carpet of grass with mature density and a solid root system. And, it performs like an investment. Landscaping with turf grass sod instantly increases the market value of the property from 5%-10%. Lawns established with turfgrass sod are an immediate joy and source of pride, while lawns started with seed, sprigs, or plugs take from 2 to 3 years of constant effort and are a frequent frustration. In an instant, turfgrass sod creates a soft, clean and safe playing surface for children, lawn games, and family entertaining. But most importantly, it cleans the air and helps recharge our groundwater supplies. Grass blades take in carbon dioxide and the worst atmospheric pollutants and gives back pure oxygen. Turfgrass sod is one of nature's finest, least expensive filters, working to improve the environment. Because turfgrass is fully mature the day it's delivered, it can immediately control erosion even on steeply sloped areas, as it sinks down roots very rapidly.
