Bringing this yard back to life for someone in need.
What happens here
Have rolls of fresh sod delivered to the site. Carefully unload the sod and begin laying it across the remaining bare soil areas designated for lawn. Roll out each piece of sod tightly against the previous one, ensuring no gaps. Use a utility knife to cut sod to fit curves, edges, and around existing features. Once laid, gently tamp down the sod to ensure good contact with the soil underneath.
Goal: Establish a new, healthy lawn.
