Trusted Installers for Fresh Sod Projects

Lawler Turf connects customers with experienced installers for sod projects in Shreveport.

When you order sod in Shreveport, installation needs to happen quickly to protect the grass from heat stress and root damage. Lawler Turf does not install sod directly but coordinates with preferred landscaper and contractor partners who work regularly with Tifway 419 Bermuda Grass. These installers understand the timing required to keep sod fresh and know how to prepare soil, lay turf, and water properly to support fast rooting. Whether you are a homeowner building a new lawn in Shreveport or a contractor finishing a commercial site, the farm can connect you with installers who handle residential, commercial, and athletic field projects.

This service allows you to purchase sod directly from the farm while securing professional installation at the same time. Preferred installers are commonly used on new construction projects where sod delivery and installation need to be coordinated around grading, utility work, and final inspections. You receive fresh-cut Tifway 419 Bermuda Grass delivered within 24 hours of harvest, and your installer schedules the work to ensure the sod is laid before it loses moisture or develops heat buildup on the pallets.

If you are ordering sod and need help arranging installation in Shreveport, contact Lawler Turf to request preferred installer referrals when you place your order.

Coordination That Protects Fresh Grass

Lawler Turf refers customers to installers who have experience working with Tifway 419 Bermuda Grass and understand the importance of prompt installation after delivery in Shreveport. The farm harvests sod only after purchase, so the grass arrives fresh with healthy roots. Your installer receives the sod at your site and lays it within 24 to 48 hours to prevent the turf from overheating or drying out while stacked on pallets. This coordination helps ensure the grass roots quickly once watered.

After installation, you will notice the seams between sod pieces begin to close as roots grow into the soil below. The lawn develops a uniform appearance within two to three weeks if watered consistently, and the grass becomes firm underfoot as the root system strengthens. Preferred installers typically handle soil prep, grading adjustments, and initial watering, so the sod is set up properly from the start.

Installer referrals are available for residential lawns, commercial properties, and athletic fields. The farm does not employ installers directly or oversee installation work, but preferred partners are familiar with Tifway 419 and understand how to handle fresh-cut sod. Installation costs are separate from sod pricing and are arranged directly between you and the installer.
