Our Services — Sod Delivery, Sod Prep, Sod Installation
Farm-cut sod installed across Tiverton — the busier north end above the Sakonnet River, the village around Tiverton Four Corners, and the rural, farm-and-woods south end toward Little Compton.
(203) 806-4086
Tiverton runs the length of the east shore of the Sakonnet River, a long, narrow East Bay town that changes character as you travel it. The north end near the Portsmouth bridge is busier and more built-up, with tighter neighborhoods and commercial ground; the middle holds the historic village around Tiverton Four Corners; and the south end thins out into farm fields, woods, and big rural lots running down toward Little Compton. Along the river the ground is lower and touched by salt air; back inland it climbs into wooded glacial till threaded with stone walls, and many of the southern lots run on their own wells. Soils shift from sandy, fast-draining ground near the water to heavier till inland, so a Tiverton lawn depends on reading the parcel before the sod goes down.
CT Sod delivers and installs sod across the East Bay with the same fresh-cut product and install standard we run in our home market, backed by 30 years of sod industry experience. Pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of installation — never stockpiled — and set exactly where the crew is working by all-terrain forklift, whether that is a tighter north-end lot or a big set-back parcel down south. A crew whose only job is sod, not general landscaping, lays it the same day. On the open, salt-touched riverside lots we lead with tall fescue or RTF for deep roots and drought tolerance; the shaded, wooded inland lots do better under a bluegrass-fescue blend. Go install-only if you or your landscaper handle the prep, or full-service for prep and install in one scope.
Here is what install day looks like in Tiverton. Once the quote is approved and the date is set, your sod is cut fresh at the farm that morning and loaded for the East Bay. 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 sets pallets where the crew is laying — carrying a load out across a big rural south-end lot, or moving it off a tighter north-end drive without tying up the street. A sod-only crew rolls it out, cuts it tight to beds, walks, and stone walls, and rolls the seams the same day it was harvested. Before we leave, you get a watering handoff built for the lot, whether it draws from town water up north or a well down south.
Your sod is cut to order at the farm the morning of installation — never stockpiled. Fresh sod roots faster and handles transplant stress far better than a tired pallet, which matters on Tiverton's open riverside and south-end lots where the sun and the salt air off the Sakonnet dry out sod that sits too long before it goes down.
Tiverton runs from tighter north-end neighborhoods to big set-back rural lots down south, and each calls for a different approach. Our forklift moves a load off a narrow north-end drive without tying up the street, or carries pallets out across a large south-end parcel to where the crew is laying rather than stranding them at the road.
The open, salt-touched lots along the Sakonnet River get tall fescue or RTF for the deep roots and drought tolerance a riverside lawn needs, and the same holds for the exposed south-end fields. The shaded, wooded inland lots do better under a bluegrass-fescue blend that keeps color where afternoon shade thins straight bluegrass.
From the busier north-end neighborhoods and the historic village around Tiverton Four Corners to the farm fields and woods of the rural south end toward Little Compton, we work all of Tiverton, and we read the lot's access and drainage into the plan before the truck rolls rather than sorting it out on install day.
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 to the edges and old stone walls.
Every Tiverton install is scoped per project — square footage, access, prep needs, drainage, well setup on the south-end lots, and any salt exposure along the river. You get a written quote with the work and inclusions spelled out before any crew is scheduled, so there are no surprises on install day.

Verified customer reviews
A sample of verified reviews from our 4.6-star Google Business Profile.
“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.”
“Excellent experience from start to finish. I reached out and they were able to not only give me accurate support in terms of measurements but told me exactly how to prep everything so I was completely ready for the delivery and installation. Pricing was competitive and good, and communication was even better. Greatly appreciative to the entire team who did an outstanding job.”
“Very easy to work with. Responsive to my urgent needs (upcoming wedding reception at home). Competitive price. When their contracted scalper overscalped, CT Sod came in and filled with additional sod at no charge - no fuss at all. Came out great!”
“I could not be happier with my experience buying sod. CT Sod answered all the questions I had and was able to deliver my sod as soon as I needed it. I would definitely use them again. My lawn looks amazing!”
“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.”
“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.”
