Sod installation for healthy lawns and gardens

Creating a healthy lawn can be done using a variety of methods, the most popular of which is sod installation. Laying sod for your garden or yard creates a beautiful space which requires little time. Before beginning the procedure, soil preparation is undertaken; this includes rototilling of the soil twice. This is done to open up the soil, add the soil amendments and incorporate them into the soil. This gives air space in the soil, which is very important for good root development in establishing your new lawn. The soil is then graded and rolled. Now that the soil has been properly prepared, the sod is then installed. A company that offers sod installation services for residential and commercial properties in the San Jose area, California is Dooling Landscape Service.

This landscape company has been installing sod lawns for clients in Santa Clara County for more than two decades. They use primarily Champion Sod grown by The Grass Farm located in Morgan Hill, California. Champion Sod is a Dwarf Fescue Blend. They use this sod because it requires less water than some other sods. It also is very durable, holding up well under foot traffic and children's play. Dooling Landscape Service also offers services in yard cleanups, landscape maintenance, renovation, planting of trees, shrubs, and installation of irrigation, concrete, fences, pavers, decomposed granite walkways, waterfalls, and ponds.
