While installing sod can be done relatively quickly, the preparation of the soil beforehand can take significantly longer. To prepare the ground before sod installation in Las Vegas our landscaping experts begin by clearing the ground of any debris like rocks or weeds and removing any existing grass patches that will interrupt the new sod. Once cleared, it is necessary to till the ground a couple of inches until the top layer of soil is completely disturbed but level. While tilling or quickly afterward, a compost mix is added to enrich the soil. Once properly treated, landscapers will firm up the ground by adding some water and rolling over the soil.  If the homeowner wants an in-the-ground sprinkler system, this is the time our designers will install it. Followed by another grating, the ground will finally be ready for sod installation.
