Nothing highlights a well-kept exterior more than a rich-looking, carpet-like lawn. Growing beautiful grass begins with your choice of two options: lawn seeding or sod lawn installation. Whether you desire the instant results provided by resodding the lawn, or you’re interested in a more economical lawn seeding service, Shearer Patio & Landscape Services is here to help. With our seeding and sod lawn services, your grass can be thick, weed-free and ready for your enjoyment.
Shearer Patio & Landscape Services began as a lawn care maintenance business serving the Columbus region over 20 years ago. Our expertise with lawn care and landscaping installation and maintenance helped us grow our business to include stone and brick paver masonry, custom exterior woodworking, snow removal and more. When you hire us to care for your lawn, you’ll see why beautiful grass creates a wonderful first impression — and why sodding or seeding the lawn is best left to experienced professionals.
Sod is grass that is fully grown. Its root system has developed in soil prepared with regular watering and fertilization. There are no weeds, and after installation, there is no need for additional seeding.
Sod is an ideal choice when instant results are required. This may be because you don’t have the know-how or time to seed or care for your new lawn, or because you’ve experienced difficulty growing grass on certain areas of your property. When you choose sodding, you won’t have to worry about keeping the seeds and baby grass wet, and you won’t have to worry about staying off the grass so it grows thickly.
Just because you’ve chosen to install sod on your property does not mean you don’t have to care for your new grass. You will still need to water and fertilize your lawn periodically. You may also wish to aerate or use weed killer to maintain its lush appearance.
When you hire Shearer Patio & Landscape Services to install your sod lawn, we can prepare the area where you want the sod laid and assure the sod stays moist prior to installation. After installation, we can perform regular lawn maintenance so you can get the most value possible out of your investment.
Although sodding the lawn provides instant results, seeding is more economical. That is because seeding requires more effort on the part of the property owner, often for several weeks or longer.
To achieve the same results as sodding, frequent watering is necessary — once the seeds sprout grass, it must stay moist at all times. You’ll also need to avoid stepping or placing heavy items on new grass. This can kill it and create unsightly patches where reseeding will be required. You may also find common weeds such as clover or dandelion growing in new grass — a disappointing discovery. Shearer Patio & Landscape Services can prepare, seed and maintain your new lawn to avoid these problems.
