Family Backyard in Smithtown
Smithtown, NYSod Installation
Backyards in Smithtown work hard. This one had years of foot traffic behind it: compacted soil, thin turf and bare dirt patches where the kids and dogs played most. The family wanted a lawn soft enough for bare feet and tough enough for daily use, and seeding was not going to get them there.
We removed the old turf, aerated and conditioned the soil so water and roots could get down deep, and installed a high-traffic sod blend chosen for quick recovery and color. Every piece went down tight with staggered seams, then we rolled it for solid soil contact and left the family a watering and mowing schedule.
The result is a dense, green backyard that the family actually uses again, from soccer games to cookouts.
