Understanding Manalapan's Soil Conditions
Every successful sod installation starts with understanding your soil. Here's what makes Manalapan unique.
Local Soil Type
Sandy loam to sandy clay loam (Freehold/Marlboro series)
Manalapan Township's soil is primarily Freehold sandy loam and Marlboro sandy clay loam — well-drained soils with moderate clay content and natural glauconite minerals. The Marlboro clay component means some areas have heavier soil that retains moisture better than pure sandy soils but can become compacted.
Local Challenges
Manalapan's soil is generally good for sod but the clay content in some areas can create drainage issues during heavy rain. Properties in newer developments may have compacted subsoil from construction that needs to be loosened before sod installation. The large subdivision lots benefit from professional irrigation.
Our Approach in Manalapan
Based on Manalapan's Sandy loam to sandy clay loam (Freehold/Marlboro series) soil, our team follows a customized installation process that includes soil testing, pH adjustment, organic amendment, and professional-grade sod selected specifically for Monmouth County conditions.
