Sod vs. Seed: Which is Right for You?

When starting a new lawn or repairing an old one, the big question is always: sod or seed? Here's how to decide.

The Case for Sod

Sod provides an instant lawn. It's pre-grown, weed-free, and can be installed almost any time of year. It's ideal for slopes and high-traffic areas.

The Case for Seed

Seeding is more economical but requires significantly more time and patience. It's best done in the fall or early spring and requires careful watering and protection while it establishes.
