Sod VS Hydroseed Benefits

Sod and hydroseeding are two great ways to turn a brown, patchy or barren landscape into a lush, green new lawn, fast. They both increase your home’s value, curb appeal, and can make your neighbors jealous. Before you install either one, however, it’s also is a great chance to do a soil test and make sure your soil is ready to accept a new plant. Once your lawn sod has settled and the hydroseed has taken root and grown in, either option will create a lush green color we all want surrounding our home. Each one will also require you to use basic lawn care techniques to keep it healthy. We’re talking about mowing, watering, and fertilizing.

Fast

Sodding lawns is the fastest way to get the look you want. Sod can be installed anytime the ground is not frozen, and can usually be installed within a few hours to a day depending on how big the area is, what the soil looks like, and the size of the crew. However, even though sod looks great almost immediately after it is installed, it can take up to 3 weeks for the sod root system to adapt and be ready for everyday use.

  • Just got off the phone with Greg. He spent 15 minutes with me walking me through the entire process of start to finish on how to prep my yard, what he recommends and what to expect and why Hydroseed is a great option vs doing it myself. He's ​very patient with questions​ that I'm sure he gets all the time from amateurs like myself and very well educated in his field. The internet is always a great place to learn but nothing beats an expert on the phone. Very grateful for his time and would ​highly recommend​ him to anyone looking to Hydroseed their lawn.

  • Such great service​, driver arrived on time and explained everything there was to know about maintaining the side of the sod green. He advised to water down the sides, and before he left I seen he was already watering the sides for me. He was an older gentlemen, around his 50's. Super helpful and friendly​... chatted a bit with my little talkative 3 yr old too. ​I highly recommend​.

  • My husband and I are extremely pleased with Greg's work in installing sod in our backyard this morning. We were originally working with another company, who kept rescheduling us and ended up never showing to our final appt last Saturday morning. I found Greg's company and called to inquire about quotes, and he immediately gave us a quote over the phone and offered to schedule us ASAP. He constantly kept in touch from beginning to end, and did a ​wonderful job for an awesome price​. He even gave us some information about when to water the sod,how often, for how long, etc. As my husband was at work, my parents came by to take a look and thought it was a beautiful job as well. My husband is looking forward to seeing it in person tonight. We could not be more pleased!

  • I finally got tired of all the Bermuda grass looking so ratty and invasive and just got a pick and took it out!!! I found Greg's business through our Next door site and he had excellent reviews and I am VERY glad I called him. Greg was very helpful answering questions and giving advice ​on lawn preparation, laying the sod etc. I highly recommend calling Greg Demetre if you want a great fescue lawn.

  • Ordered Sod from Greg and he was ​wonderful​! Sod arrived when he said it would and Greg stuck around to offer advice on where to start to minimize my cuts. Even offered tips on watering and long term maintenance. Would recommend Greg and Bell Sod and Hydroseed in a heartbeat.

  • Great customer service​. Greg arrived for delivery when he said he would and got to work quick. I have laid sod numerous times and his ​product is excellent​. Not too dry, or too wet. He cut the sod the morning of delivery so the sod was perfect. His pricing beat everyone in the area. I would definitely recommend Bell Sod and Hydroseeding to anyone that is in need.

  • Greg did an awesome job on our sod. He always puts 150% into his job. I would ​highly recommend​ him. You will not be disappointed when you hire him. He also made 2 double raised beds, put our sprinkler system in, put all our landscape in on our front and back yard of our house, and a french drain. Greg is very reasonably priced and he always follows through with what he tells you he is going to do, ​very reliable​!! He also did Hydroseed at the house next door to our house and it looks awesome. Thank you Greg for doing such an awesome job!

  • Greg was great! I will definitely tell others about this company and I will look to them for my future sod and hydroseed needs. Greg was fair, honest, patient, informative, helpful, punctual,and pleasant. I had sod coming from two different places, but thankfully they both fell through due to their poor customer service and general lack of organization. I'm glad for it now because I found this company. I will go to them first from now on. I notice that most of these reviews mention Greg in a positive light...now I understand why. He stands behind his word and a very high-quality product​. I ordered 2500 sf. from Bell Sod and Hydroseed and every single roll was green and whole. None were even slightly yellowed or burned or falling apart. This company maintains a ​high standard of quality control​. I can feel good about recommending them and I will do it given the chance! Thank you, Bell Sod and Hydroseed!

  • I called this sod company and had already done some research prior to my call. Not only was Greg (owner) helpful but very ​informative, personable, patient​ (with my multitude of questions) and very ​competitively priced​. After the work was done, he had gone ​above and beyond​. My property is very sloped which I hadn't notified him at time of commitment but he wasn't fazed. Great experience, ​wished more people took customer service to this level.
