A patchy or dead lawn can hurt your curb appeal fast—but starting over doesn’t have to be a hassle. At Design Scapes, we offer professional sod installation services in San Antonio designed to give you a healthy, green lawn quickly and efficiently. Whether you're dealing with dead grass, new construction, or storm damage, our experienced team helps homeowners, HOAs, and commercial property owners reclaim their outdoor spaces with fresh, locally sourced sod.
Laying sod is the fastest way to establish a lush, green lawn. While grass seed takes months to grow (and often with inconsistent results), sod is pre-grown grass that’s installed in strips or squares, giving you:
Immediate green coverage
Erosion control on sloped yards
Fewer weeds from the start
Faster usability (walkable in 2–3 weeks)
For San Antonio’s unique climate, sod offers a reliable solution—especially when installed with proper preparation and aftercare.
We don’t just roll it out and leave. Our sod installation is built on experience, using the right tools, timing, and materials to ensure long-term success:
We assess soil type, shade, drainage, and irrigation to determine the best sod variety for your space.
We remove old grass, weeds, and debris. Then, we grade and level the ground, improving soil quality for proper root development.
We use fresh-cut, locally sourced sod, installed in a staggered pattern for seamless growth and minimal gaps.
We roll the sod to eliminate air pockets and ensure contact with the soil. Then we water thoroughly to start root bonding.
You’ll receive a care guide and watering schedule so your lawn stays healthy in the critical first few weeks.
We help you choose the right sod based on your sunlight, usage, and water preferences. Common sod types we work with:
