Frequently asked questions.

How much does sod installation cost in Ocean County, NJ?

$2.85 per square foot for full-service installation — tear-out, composted topsoil, fresh-cut Sod Squad Standard sod, and 30 days of care included. A typical 1,500 sq ft front yard runs about $4,275. Our project minimum is $2,000.

Do you offer seeding instead of sod?

No — we install sod only. Our grass grows 9 months to the Sod Squad Standard, so you get a finished lawn in one day instead of gambling a whole season on seed in sandy shore soil.

What kind of grass do you install?

A tall fescue blend grown to the Sod Squad Standard — deep roots, heat-tough, and right for sandy Jersey Shore soil. No plastic netting in our sod, and it's cut fresh for your job, not sitting on pallets for days.

Do I need irrigation for new sod?

For lawns over about 1,500 sq ft, yes — hand-watering can't keep that much new sod alive. We install irrigation systems too, typically $2,850–$3,950 depending on zones, and we check existing systems free with your estimate.

Can I just buy sod delivered?

Yes — delivered sod runs about $0.55 to $1.00 a square foot, and one pallet covers about 500 sq ft. Delivery is quoted per order, no pickups.

When can I walk on my new lawn?

Stay off the new sod until we come back for the first cut. No walking, play or dogs. Roots start to grip in 10 to 14 days. We come back about 21 to 30 days after install for the first cut and the second fertilizer, and we text you the day before.

How do deposits work?

A 30% deposit locks your install date, and it applies to your balance.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — fully licensed and insured, including workers’ comp and liability. Certificates of insurance available on request.

When is install season?

Spring through November 15. Slots fill week by week in season, which is why estimates come with a 30-day price lock — your number holds while you decide.
