Our Services — Sod Delivery, Sod Prep, Sod Installation
Farm-cut sod installed across North Stonington — the quiet wooded uplands, the old stone-wall farm ground, and the well-water country homes of eastern New London County.
(203) 806-4086
North Stonington is rural, wooded, and quiet — the kind of eastern Connecticut town where lots run large, stone walls trace old field lines through the trees, and most homes sit on wells rather than town water. The land rolls through wooded uplands and open former farm fields, with the Pawcatuck and Shunock waters draining the low ground. Dig anywhere and you hit glacial till: firm, stony, and shallow on topsoil in the uplands, richer in the old bottomland fields. Homes are often set well back on long gravel or dirt drives. It's beautiful ground for a lawn, but it rewards honest prep, because thin stony till and open sun make a new lawn work hard through a dry summer.
CT Sod runs install crews across New London County, and North Stonington's eastern woods are part of that footprint. Pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of installation rather than pulled from a stockpile, trucked in the same day, and set exactly where the crew is working by all-terrain forklift instead of stranded at the head of a long drive. The crews here lay sod nearly every day and do nothing else, backed by 30 years of sod industry experience. On the open, sunny farm-field lots we lead with tall fescue or RTF for deep roots that handle a dry stretch on thin till; the shaded lots under mature woods get a bluegrass-fescue mix. You can go install-only if you or your landscaper handle the prep, or full-service if you'd rather hand over the whole job.
Here is what install day in North Stonington looks like. 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 east. On a full-service job the crew strips the old turf, grades, and works in topsoil first; on install-only that prep is already done. The all-terrain forklift then carries pallets down the long gravel drives and across the yard to wherever the crew is laying — no dragging sod hundreds of feet from the road, no sinking a truck in a soft field edge. A sod-only crew rolls it out, cuts it tight around beds, walks, and the odd rock outcrop, and rolls the seams the same day it was harvested. Before we go, you get a same-day watering handoff so the lawn starts rooting right away.
Your sod is cut at the farm the morning of installation and never stockpiled. Fresh sod roots faster and handles transplant stress far better than a tired pallet, which matters on North Stonington's thin, stony upland till and open, sun-baked farm-field lots where the ground gives a new lawn no cushion in a dry summer.
North Stonington homes often sit well back on long gravel or dirt drives, and delivery trucks can't reach the yard. Our forklift carries each pallet down the drive and sets it where the crew is laying, so nothing gets stranded at the road, dragged hundreds of feet across a field, or double-handled by hand.
Tall fescue or RTF for the open, sunny farm-field lots that have to survive a dry stretch on thin, stony till; a bluegrass-fescue blend for the shaded lots tucked under mature woods; and Kentucky bluegrass where a sunny yard has reliable water and wants the richest color. We match the grass to your light, soil, and water.
From the wooded uplands to the old stone-wall farm ground, we install across North Stonington and the neighboring towns of eastern New London County — planning for the long rural drives, the well-water yards, and the deer-edge lots where the woods meet the lawn before the truck rolls out.
Full-service means we strip the old turf, grade, add topsoil, and lay the fresh sod as one scope with a single point of contact from quote through completion. Prefer install-only? You or your landscaper handle the prep and our crew shows up with the farm-cut sod and lays it tight, clean, and square to the beds.
Every North Stonington install is scoped per project — square footage, access down a long drive, prep needs, and drainage across the old field ground. You get a written quote with the work and inclusions spelled out before any crew is scheduled, so a country lawn comes together with no surprises on install day.

New Canaan, CT
Our first commercial job story: a schedule mixup left no installers on the day the sod arrived — and the property had a party that same afternoon. Our crew laid 4,500 square feet of fresh-cut Kentucky bluegrass in steady rain, at no extra charge, and the lawn was ready before the guests.
Fairfield, CT
The finish of our Fairfield pool-rebuild story: gravel and hardened concrete slurry out, screened topsoil and irrigation in, and 2,500 square feet of fresh-cut Kentucky bluegrass wrapping the new pool and stone patio.
Milford, CT
The finish of our Milford patio-damage story: dead machine routes stripped and regraded in the morning, 1,500 sq ft of fresh-cut Kentucky bluegrass laid the same afternoon — sprinklers running before the trailer left the curb.
