About This Service
Nothing transforms a yard faster than fresh sod. All American Landscape Co. handles the entire process — from tilling and leveling the soil to laying seamless rolls of premium turf. We work with sod varieties best suited to North Texas summers, ensuring your lawn stays green and healthy long after installation day.
Proper soil preparation is the most overlooked part of sod installation — and the most important. A new lawn laid on compacted, nutrient-poor, or uneven soil will struggle to establish roots and often fails within the first season. That's why we invest significant time in soil prep before a single roll of sod goes down. We till, grade, amend, and level the ground to create the ideal environment for your new turf to take root quickly and evenly.
We serve homeowners in Arlington, Fort Worth, Mansfield, Kennedale, and surrounding areas. Our sod installations are designed to handle North Texas heat, clay soil, and drainage conditions. After installation, we walk you through a detailed watering schedule — the single most critical factor in new sod survival.

What sod do we recommend for North Texas in 2026?
For full sun in 2026 we recommend TifTuf Bermuda — it uses 38% less water than Tifway 419 while maintaining great density and color, making it the top choice for North Texas homeowners dealing with water restrictions and summer drought. For partial shade, Cobalt St. Augustine has become our go-to for its drought tolerance and deep green color. For low-maintenance premium look, Zorro Zoysia is worth the extra investment — it's ranked #1 zoysia worldwide and greens up earlier in spring.
How long does sod installation take?
Most sod installations are completed within 1–2 days. Larger properties or projects requiring extensive prep work may take slightly longer. We provide a timeline estimate during your free quote.
How often should new sod be watered?
New sod should be watered daily for the first 2–3 weeks to establish strong roots. After that, watering can be reduced to a normal lawn maintenance schedule. We provide a full watering guide with every installation.
Do you prepare the soil before installing sod?
Yes — proper soil preparation is critical. We grade and level the area to ensure proper drainage, remove old grass and debris, and amend the soil before installing any sod. This is the most important step for long-term lawn health.
