You are probably always intrigued by the beauty of the green lawns in commercial properties or your neighbors' yards. How do they create these attractive lawns? Most of them install sod, which gives their properties a fantastic exterior.
Fortunately, you can also transform your property by installing sod if you don't want to grow grass traditionally. Here are the reasons to install sod on your lawn.
Gives Faster Results
If you want an instant lawn, then sod is the right choice for you. Seeds may be useful, but you have to wait at least 18 months for the grass to grow. With sod, however, you will have a lawn by the time the installation process is done. Once installation commences, your lawn will be set within a couple weeks.
Reduces Heat
Homes with asphalt or concrete in their yards tend to have higher temperatures than those with sod lawns. Asphalt and concrete emit heat, while sod absorbs it and prevents heat transfer. As a result, sod has a cooling effect, unlike artificial materials.
Absorbs Carbon Dioxide
Sod is harvested after natural planting and then held by a root system or biodegradable base. The sod experts then transfer the layers to your property for installation. Therefore, unlike the artificial grass, sod supports natural plant processes, such as photosynthesis.
During photosynthesis, grass absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, which translates to reduced greenhouse gases on your property. Sod also absorbs the potentially dangerous hydrogen fluoride and peroxyacetyl nitrates.
Sod blades can also capture dust, preventing them from floating in the air. Therefore, sod can help enhance your overall air quality.
Requires Less Maintenance
Sod is matured grass, which means that you don't have to give it too much attention like seeded lawns. You only need to water new sod twice a day during the first couple months then like normal after that first period. Seeded lawns, however, require water and herbicides to achieve the desired look.
Also, since you don't need to apply herbicides or fertilizers regularly, sod is an ideal option for busy homeowners.
Reduces Noise
The thick layer of sod absorbs noise, which means that you won't be irritated by passing cars. Although sod doesn't block the sounds entirely, it reduces noise significantly. Sod is like exterior carpet; when your house doesn't have carpet, footsteps and echoes are louder than when you have carpet.
Prevents Soil Erosion
Since sod is mature, it can grip your bare soil and prevent it from erosion. This means that you are unlikely to experience soil erosion around your property. With bare soil, your property can get muddy when it rains and transfer soil all over. Sod covers the soil and prevents this problem.
Soil erosion is also a major challenge with seeded lawns. When it rains heavily, water can wash away the soil, resulting in a bumpy lawn. Therefore, sod is a better lawn option that fully protects the soil, especially if you live in regions that experience high rains.
Moreover, sod can grow on poor soils, and thus you can use it regardless of your region's soil type.
Comes in a Broad Range of Options
Sod comes in a wide range of types, including Bermuda, St. Augustine, centipede, and zoysia. These types have their respective pros and cons, and they suit different settings. With all these options, you are likely to find one that works for you when you consult experts.
Enhances Property's Value
A well-established landscape can raise the value of a home by a significant percentage. A well-maintained sod can help you get potential buyers quickly and get a better deal.
