Recent job — Darien, CT
Darien, CT
This job is from Darien, CT. CT Sod serves Salisbury with the same sod-specialist crews.
The landscape company completed preparation and hired CT Sod to supply and install the sod. For this first-time commercial customer, our combined price made more sense than handling the sod installation themselves.

Local Installation Planning
Salisbury occupies the far northwest tip of Connecticut, a town of village centers, lake shores, and country estates set against some of the highest ground in the state. The main villages, Salisbury and Lakeville, carry older, well-kept parcels with mature street trees, while the land around Twin Lakes and Lakeville Lake holds a mix of long-held lake properties and weekend and second homes that fill in through the warm months. Away from the water the town rises into the hills below Bear Mountain and Mount Riga, glacial till over ledge with rock outcrops and stone walls, and drops into richer bottomland along the low fields and streams. Lawns here run the full range — a tidy village front yard, a sloping lawn running down toward a lake, or a broad estate lawn on a country property — which means the soil and the access change from one job to the next, and the prep under the sod is what carries a Salisbury lawn.
CT Sod runs install crews across the northwest corner and the Litchfield Hills, backed by 30 years of sod industry experience. Your pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of installation rather than pulled from a stockpile, trucked up into Salisbury, and set exactly where the crew is working by all-terrain forklift instead of left at the road. The crews here lay sod nearly every day and do only sod, so the seams knit tight and the edges finish clean around walks, walls, beds, and the slopes running down toward the water. Choose install-only if you or your landscaper handle the prep, or full-service if you want old-turf removal, grading, and topsoil folded into one scope with a single point of contact.
Here is how install day runs in Salisbury. Once the quote is approved and the date is set, your sod is cut fresh that morning and loaded for the climb into the corner. 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. On a village lot the truck can often get close; on a lake property with a sloping approach or an estate set back off the road, the all-terrain forklift carries the pallets to the work area so nothing bakes at the road. A sod-only crew then rolls it out, cuts it in tight to walks and beds, and rolls the seams the same day it was harvested. Before we leave you get a watering handoff so the lawn starts rooting right away.
Your sod is cut to order at the farm the morning of installation — never stockpiled. Fresh sod roots faster and rides out transplant stress better, which matters on Salisbury's thin upland till where the topsoil is shallow and on a lakeside slope where a strong start helps the lawn knit before it faces summer sun and foot traffic.
A curbside drop works on a flat village lot, but a lawn sloping down toward Twin Lakes or an estate set back a long drive needs the sod carried in. Our forklift places each pallet where the crew is laying — down the slope or back the approach — so the sod goes down fresh instead of getting dragged across a finished walk or baking at the road.
We run crews across Salisbury and Lakeville and the towns around them — the lake properties around Twin Lakes and Lakeville Lake, the village centers, and the country estates rising into the hills. Tell us where the property sits, how the approach runs, and how the truck reaches the yard when you call so we can plan the staging.
Open, sunny estate and lakeside lots on thin till get a tall fescue blend or RTF for deep roots that ride out a dry stretch; the shaded village parcels under mature street trees do better with a bluegrass-fescue mix; and a full-sun lawn chasing the richest color can take Kentucky bluegrass. We match the grass to the light and the soil on each lot.
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 — a real convenience on a country estate where coordinating trades is a hassle. Prefer install-only? You or your landscaper handle the prep and our crew arrives with the sod and lays it tight.
Every Salisbury install is scoped to the property — square footage, how the sod reaches a lakeside slope or a set-back estate yard, prep needs, and the soil difference between thin upland till and the richer bottomland below. You get a written quote with the work and inclusions spelled out before any crew is scheduled.

Trumbull, CT
The front-yard installation for a builder who switched from seed to sod after working with CT Sod. We arranged a return to lay the extra pallet once he prepared a rear-yard area; the photos show the completed front lawn.
Westport, CT
An order mix-up left 8,000 square feet of fresh-cut Kentucky bluegrass mix with no home, so a Westport homeowner got full prep and installation compressed into a single Friday — buried rock and fill hauled off, screened topsoil in, and sod down by dark. The last small strip finishes with a fresh cutting the next week.

Verified customer reviews
A sample of verified reviews from our 4.6-star Google Business Profile.
“I was on a search for a sod supplier, and between the large retail stores and the local nurseries, no one had sod ready when I needed it. I came across CT Sod, and not only they had sod available their prices were much more competitive than the large retailer and the local nurseries. From the initial call, order, delivery and installation, every step went smoothly. The office staff were extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind. The sod that was delivered was high quality. After the installation I have received detailed instruction on the maintenance, and a week later I received a call to verify that everything is well. I am highly recommend them for any size work. I am happy to say: “The grass is always greener at the neighbor yard”. I am that neighbor now!”
“Placing an order online was easy, they answered a follow up email quickly and texted the day before our schedule delivery date to give me a window for the delivery. The delivery was made on time, and so far the sod is looking good.”
“CT Sod’s website was very helpful for pricing and installation advice. Purchase was easy. The sod was very healthy when it arrived, my son and I installed, and it looks great.”
