The choice depends on your timeline, budget, and specific needs. Sod provides instant results and can be installed almost year-round but costs more. Seeding is more economical and allows for more grass variety choices but requires longer establishment time and specific seasonal timing.

For northern Illinois, seed is best planted in late summer to early fall (August-September) or early spring. Sod can be installed almost any time during the growing season, though spring and fall offer optimal conditions.

Under proper conditions, sod typically takes 2-3 weeks to develop strong root systems. Full root establishment occurs within 6-8 weeks during the growing season.

Avoid regular foot traffic for the first 2-3 weeks. The first mowing can typically be done 2 weeks after installation, once the sod is firmly rooted.

Yes, we provide a 30-day establishment guarantee on all sod installations when our recommended watering and care instructions are followed.
