Sod Installation in Lexington, MA

Lexington is a settled, leafy Greater Boston suburb where the housing runs from close-in blocks near the town center and the Battle Green out to larger wooded lots backing onto conservation land. Mature oak and maple shade a good share of these yards for much of the day, and many of the bigger properties already run well-established in-ground irrigation, which changes how a new lawn is planned and watered in. The ground is rocky glacial till with pockets of good loam, so under the sod the story is usually about drainage, root depth, and how much sun actually reaches the turf once the canopy leafs out. Shade is the honest first thing to sort on a lot of these lawns.

CT Sod delivers and installs sod across Greater Boston, backed by 30 years of sod industry experience. We're sod specialists, not a general landscaping company, and we bring the same fresh-cut product and install standard we run in our home market. Pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of installation rather than pulled from a stockpile, and an all-terrain forklift sets them exactly where the crew is laying — up a wooded driveway or across a deep front lawn, not stranded at the road. You can go install-only if your prep is handled, or full-service if you'd rather fold old-lawn removal, grading, and topsoil into one scope.

Here is what install day looks like in Lexington. Once the quote is approved and the date is set, your sod is cut fresh at the farm that morning and loaded for the run up. On full-service jobs the crew strips the old turf, grades, and works in topsoil first; on install-only your ground is already prepped, and if the property is irrigated we'll ask you to have the heads marked or the system shut down before we roll. The forklift carries pallets across a deep lot or up a tree-lined drive, and a crew that lays sod nearly every day rolls it out, cuts it tight to walks, beds, and stone edging, and rolls the seams the same day it was harvested. Before we go, you get a watering handoff — dialed for the shaded strips under the oaks and coordinated with any existing irrigation so the new lawn roots evenly.
