Start Fresh With a New Lawn
Professional sod installation services for homes and businesses throughout North Fort Worth and the surrounding area.

If your yard in North Fort Worth has become more dirt than grass, or if you are starting with bare soil after new construction, sod installation gives you a fully established lawn in just one day. You walk out to packed dirt one morning and return to thick, rooted turf that same afternoon. Gro Pro installs Bermuda and St. Augustine sod across the North Fort Worth area, preparing each site to support long-term growth and even water coverage.

The process begins with site preparation and grading to remove debris, level uneven areas, and create proper drainage. Once the ground is ready, we lay high-quality sod in tight rows, ensuring full contact with the soil beneath. Bermuda works well in high-sun areas and handles foot traffic, while St. Augustine thrives in partial shade and stays green longer into cooler months. Both types establish quickly when installed correctly and watered on schedule.

If you are ready to replace your lawn or install turf for the first time in North Fort Worth, Gro Pro can walk the site and provide a detailed estimate based on your yard's size and condition.

Preparation and Turf Type Make the Difference

We start by clearing your yard in the North Fort Worth area of old grass, weeds, rocks, and construction debris, then grade the soil to eliminate low spots where water might pool. A smooth, level base allows each piece of sod to root evenly and prevents gaps or lifting once the turf settles. Proper grading also directs runoff away from your foundation and keeps irrigation efficient.

Once the sod is down, you will notice an immediate change in how your yard looks and feels underfoot. The turf is dense, uniform in color, and cool to walk on even in direct sun. Within two weeks, the roots anchor into the soil, and within a month, your lawn handles regular foot traffic and routine mowing. Watering schedules vary depending on weather and soil type, but most lawns stabilize quickly with consistent moisture during the first few weeks.

We do not install sod over frozen ground, saturated soil, or areas with unresolved drainage issues. If your yard has standing water or compacted clay, we address those conditions first to give the turf a stable foundation. This work is included in the site preparation phase and ensures your new lawn does not fail within the first season.

What is the best time of year to install sod in the North Fort Worth area?

Spring and fall offer the most consistent temperatures and rainfall, which help sod establish faster. Summer installations are possible but require more frequent watering to prevent heat stress during the first two weeks.

How long does it take for new sod to root into the soil?
Most sod roots within ten to fourteen days if watered correctly and not disturbed. You can resume light foot traffic after two weeks and mow once the grass reaches three to four inches in height.

What is the difference between Bermuda and St. Augustine sod?
Bermuda tolerates full sun and heavy use, making it ideal for active yards and open spaces. St. Augustine handles partial shade better and stays green longer but requires more water and does not recover as quickly from wear.

How much water does new sod need after installation?
You should water new sod twice a day for the first week, keeping the top two inches of soil moist but not flooded. After the first week, reduce frequency and water deeper to encourage root growth into the underlying soil.

Can you install sod over an existing lawn?
No, we remove the old grass and prepare the soil before laying new sod. Installing over existing turf prevents proper root contact and leads to uneven growth, bare spots, and poor drainage.
