Recent job — Westport, CT
Westport, CT
This job is from Westport, CT. CT Sod serves Salisbury with the same sod-specialist crews.
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.

Salisbury has its own wetlands setback, watering schedule, and landscaping rules; see the lawn laws and watering restrictions for Salisbury.
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.

Verified customer reviews
A sample of verified reviews from our 4.6-star Google Business Profile.
“Excellent product and service! We ordered sod last year and the product was perfect! We installed it ourselves by first removing weeds and slightly tillering the site since we have heavy clay soil. The grass looked amazing when we installed and now in spring is perfect. We did water a lot after installing it but the time money and effort paid off. I recommend this supplier, thanks CTSod.”
“CT Sod was very easy to work with. The communication about delivery was very accommodating. Highly recommend!”
“I recently had my lawn done by CT SOD, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From the initial prep work to the final installation, everything was completed in just one day, and the results exceeded my expectations. The lawn looks absolutely beautiful, and it's clear the team takes pride in the quality of their work. They were professional, efficient, and left everything clean when they finished. If you're looking for a company that delivers excellent results and great service, I highly recommend CT SOD. Thank you for an outstanding job!”
“Best sod company around. We've used them on about 5 of our Hamptons properties and I wouldn't recommend anyone else. Sean and his employees are thorough, neat, and stick to their schedule. Top quality. High recommend.”
“If you are looking for sod in the New England area this is the place to go. My son and his family recently moved to Claremont NH and needed sod. Due to his busy schedule and being new to the area and not being able to find a local installer I planned a trip from NC to install it for him. The ordering process was easy and I believe Kayla was helpful on the phone explaining different grass options and what would work best for the area. She scheduled the sod delivery about a month out for me which allowed me to time plan my short weekend trip. On delivery day things did not go as planned due to situations beyond CT Sod’s control. I was updated by Sean throughout the day regarding the issues and his plans to make it happen. Unfortunately it did not. Sean promised to make it right and realized I had a made a special trip up for the install. I did not get to install sod that weekend but Sean and CT Sod went above and beyond to make the issue right. Sod was delivered and installed a few days after I arrived home and the quality and customer service was above and beyond. The sod looked so good people who were driving by have been inquiring to my son about where it was from and commenting how great it looks. Shout out to CT Sod for making a bad situation into a great one. As a general contractor in NC I wish we had vendors like these folks who do the right thing without being asked!!!”
“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.”
