Lawn renovation
Fix the grade first. A new lawn over bad drainage is a new lawn that dies.
What's involved
If water sits against the foundation or pools in the middle of the yard, sod won't fix it. We shoot grades, regrade with fill and topsoil to move water away from the house, then lay fresh Kentucky bluegrass sod or overseed depending on what the lawn can be saved with. New sod needs daily water for two weeks — we'll tell you exactly how much.
Details
Minimum 2% fall away from the foundation. Swales cut where water needs a path.
Screened triple-mix, four to six inches over the graded base.
Fresh-cut Ontario-grown Kentucky bluegrass, laid within 24 hours of harvest.
Where the lawn is 60% viable, core aeration and overseeding beats a full replacement.
