Our Services — Sod Delivery, Sod Prep, Sod Installation
Farm-cut sod installed across Stratford by crews based minutes away in Milford — the Lordship shore peninsula, the historic Paradise Green and Stratford Center blocks, and the Oronoque and Putney sections along the Housatonic.
(203) 806-4086
Stratford sits along Long Island Sound at the mouth of the Housatonic River between Bridgeport and Milford — the Lordship peninsula on the Sound with its shoreline community, the Paradise Green historic district, the Oronoque section along the Housatonic, the Putney area, and the Stratford Center on the historic Main Street. Lots run from tight Lordship beach-cottage parcels to mid-size half-acre and larger properties through Oronoque and Putney. Soils sit on coastal sandy loam closer to the Sound, transitioning to glacial-till loam inland, so summer wind and salt spray on the shore ask for a very different variety than the shaded historic blocks inland.
CT Sod is based in nearby Milford, right across the Housatonic, which makes Stratford one of our closest install markets. Pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of your install and placed exactly where the crew needs them by all-terrain forklift — which matters on the narrow, weight-limited Lordship shore-association lanes with their tight turnarounds and the longer Oronoque estate driveways. Our crews lay sod nearly every day across Fairfield and New Haven Counties, backed by 30 years of sod industry experience, so a Lordship shore lawn and an Oronoque half-acre both finish clean.
Our trucks and install crews run out of Milford, right across the Housatonic from Stratford. That means tighter delivery windows, faster turnaround from quote to install, and a crew that already knows the Lordship shore-association lanes and the Paradise Green historic blocks.
Your sod is cut at the farm the morning of installation — never stockpiled. Fresh sod establishes faster on Stratford's coastal sandy loam, where summer wind and salt spray punish anything that shows up already dried out on a pallet.
On the Lordship shore properties where summer wind and salt spray hit hard, we lead with a tall fescue blend or RTF — their roots reach several feet down for drought and salt resilience without heavy irrigation, the right call for exposed shore lots.
The historic Paradise Green and Stratford Center blocks sit under mature oaks that throw heavy afternoon shade. There we use a bluegrass-fescue blend — bluegrass for the rich color the historic-district aesthetic demands, tall fescue for the deep roots and coastal-Connecticut durability.
The Lordship peninsula runs narrow shore-association lanes with weight limits and tight turnarounds, and the Oronoque section has longer estate drives. Our forklifts place pallets exactly where the crew is laying — no dragging sod across a tight shore yard or leaving pallets stranded at the road.
Choose install-only if you or your landscaper handle the prep, or full-service turnkey with grading, topsoil, and the sod install in one scope. Both are available across Stratford, with a written quote before crews are scheduled.

“Sean and his team were friendly, professional, eager to please, and an overall joy to work with. By far the best deal in town without sacrificing quality; They did a beautiful job! I will be using them again for our front yard in the spring. 10/10 would recommend!”
“I recently decided to purchase sod for my home. After carefully research my options for a sod company I decided to go with CT Sod from Connecticut. I called and spoke with Sean and explained to him what I wanted. Sean was very knowledgeable and assisted with answering the many questions I had. After ordering my sod and having it delivered CT Sod was also amazing in assisting in installing the sod. I would 100% recommend CT Sod, they are very knowledgeable and professional and were willing to meet my needs. They are definitely a five star company.”
“Amazing prices! The process was extremely stress-free from ordering online to delivery. Communication was fabulous with the company and the grass is amazing. We do not have an irrigation system and maintained the grass by simply hosing twice a day for 15 minutes. I highly recommend this company.”
“We recently finished a complete backyard remodel with pool & wanted to add sod. CT Sod was excellent to work with & we couldn’t be happier with the outcome! They are professional and prompt & they deliver a high quality product.”
“Excellent company to deal with. They answered all my questions, the prices are good and the delivery was excellent and on time. Kayla was very helpful and awesome with updates.”
“I recently ordered sod from CT Sod and had a great experience overall. I placed my order on a Wednesday, and the delivery arrived promptly the following Monday, right on time. The quality of the sod appears to be excellent — it’s been two weeks since installation, and it’s looking lush and healthy. I appreciate the timely delivery and the high quality of the product. I would definitely use CT Sod again for future projects.”
