Your soil in Ortley Beach.
We already know it.
Ortley Beach is a barrier island community within Toms River Township, sitting between the Atlantic Ocean and Barnegat Bay. The soil is beach sand (Udipsamments) — essentially pure sand with no organic matter. This requires substantial topsoil and organic amendment before sod can establish a viable root system.
Soil type: Beach sand (Udipsamments, excessively drained)
Ortley Beach was heavily impacted by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and many properties were rebuilt with clean fill that can vary widely in quality. Salt spray, wind exposure, and fast-draining sandy soil are the primary challenges. Post-Sandy rebuilds often have compacted fill soil that needs loosening before sod installation.
Many Ortley Beach properties have been rebuilt since Hurricane Sandy, making this an active area for new lawn installation. Our team understands the post-Sandy soil conditions — including compacted fill and variable topsoil quality — and brings the right preparation to give your new lawn a strong start.
