Frequently asked questions
How much extra sod should I buy?
Use about 5% for simple rectangles and 10% to 15% for curves, trees, and many edges. Keep a few pieces for repairs if delivery timing is uncertain.
Can I return unused sod?
Usually not. Sod is perishable, so confirm the supplier’s policy and schedule installation, watering, and soil preparation before delivery.
