“Nik and the team at Ocean County Sod were excellent. Worked with me on scheduling and the job was done exactly when they said it would be. I had sod, a paver walkway, and sprinklers plus two other gravel projects all completed in three days.”

— Maria Sherman, Google review

“I called them on a Monday. And by Thursday, they were at my property, doing the work. Excellent to deal with, on time, communicative, and friendly. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for sod or sprinklers in Ocean and Monmouth County.”

Questions, answered.

How much does it cost to install sod in NJ?
Our standard rate is $2.85 per square foot fully installed for most yards, which includes sod material, delivery, soil preparation, grading, and labor. A typical 2,000 sq ft front lawn comes to $5,700. Really big jobs can come in lower, priced per job. Areas covered in stone or gravel that we have to remove first cost more per square foot. Factors that increase cost include rocky soil requiring extra prep, steep slopes, difficult access, and premium grass varieties like Bluegrass blends.
How often should new sod be watered?
Water new sod the day it goes down, then: in spring and fall, twice a day (early morning and early afternoon) for the first 10 days, 15–20 minutes each, then once a day until the first cut. In summer, three times a day for the first 10 days, with a short 4th cycle on days over 90°F, then twice a day until the first cut. Sandy shore soil needs the longer end of each range; skip a cycle after a good soaking rain. Keep it moist, not muddy. After the first cut, an established lawn needs about 3 waterings a week: about 20 minutes in spring and fall, about 45 minutes in summer, and 4 to 5 days a week in a drought or steady 90°F heat.
What grass seed grows in sandy soil in NJ?
Turf-Type Tall Fescue is the best grass for sandy soil in New Jersey, particularly in the Shore areas of Ocean County where sandy loam is common. Its deep root system (up to 4–6 inches) helps it access moisture that drains quickly through sand. Kentucky Bluegrass struggles in pure sand unless you amend with topsoil and compost. For sandy Shore-area properties, we recommend adding 2–3 inches of quality topsoil before sod installation.
