For commercial and residential property owners in Wilmette, Illinois, healthy, lush lawns can be a difference maker. Conversely, problematic soil and dead patches of grass can create an eyesore and decrease property value.

Sod installation immediately transforms the appearance and appeal of your yard in ways that hydroseeding and traditional seeding methods cannot. Sod seamlessly integrates into the beauty of your landscaping features and promotes healthy soil and plant growth.

Ware Landscaping sod installation experts in Wilmette provide perfectly grown strips of beautiful and thriving pregrown grass to help you achieve the lawn of your dreams. Let our dedicated professional team take care of the heavy labor of installation so that you and your loved ones can enjoy your yard.

“Last year, we called Mike and his crew and as you can see it is completely dry and the grass is beautiful he did the landscaping as well, and it is amazing"

What people are saying

Ware Landscaping & Snow Removal

They did a great job and we are very pleased!

“I contacted Mike at Ware Landscaping for help with fixing my flooded backyard and garage. Mike gave me an honest assessment of my situation and recommended the right system to fix my problems (a lot of issues). Ware Landscaping installed drainage, underground downspouts, underground sump pump lines, driveway drains and surface drains in the yard to fix all my problems.. The team was very professional and always asked for my approval on work being done before it was completed. They did a great job and we are very pleased!”

Jim Kristof

I recommend him without any hesitation.

“We had a water problem in our basement that Mike Ware completely eliminated by removing both our sump pump water and downspout water away from the home. He was professional and highly motivated to solve the problem and do it the right way. I always felt like a priority and that my project mattered. I recommend him without any hesitation.”

Michael Swider

FANTASTIC JOB!!!

Ware Landscaping did a FANTASTIC JOB!!! I needed my entire backyard regraded and they filled it in with more than 2 truck loads, installed a French drain and put new beautiful green sod on top. They also power washed and reset my front retaining wall. Communication from the beginning was always very good. We always knew when they were coming out. The project was completed on time as well. They also called on their own a month after the project to check on the sod and were willing to replace some spots due to the June heat wave. Would recommend Ware Landscaping to all!!!”

Dan Malloy

The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail.

“Mike, Greg and the rest of the crew made our back yard dream a reality with a drainage system to remove the stream that flowed through the middle of the yard, which flooded every rainstorm and stuck around for weeks. To complete the look in came a perfectly designed beautiful hardscape patio that we can’t wait to use this summer. The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail. Highly recommend!”

Katie Jankowski

The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy.

“We had a wooden deck for a front porch that was starting to age. When we removed it we saw that there was a concrete slab underneath it that was pitched toward our house, creating an issue with standing water up against our foundation. We had Mike come by to advise us on the best solution, and he suggested permeable pavers. We were able to come up with a custom design with him that day. The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy. I’m sure they do much bigger jobs than our little patio, but this project made a huge difference for our home.

Sod Installation: Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best sod for Wilmette, Illinois?

We suggest planting varieties that thrive in the Chicagoland climate, such as fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, and perennial ryegrass. The humid, cold winters of Illinois can kill warm climate grass varieties like St. Augustine or Bermuda.

It’s important to strategically avoid warm climate varieties, regardless of their beauty, as Illinois winters will kill them and destroy your yard.

When should you install sod in Wilmette?

Wilmette sod installation experts will install sod from mid-March until mid-December to avoid frozen ground. However, you don’t have to wait until late spring or summer to install sod, which provides a beneficial, greater time window than seeding.

What’s the best way to water my new sod?

Use your sprinkler system to evenly water your new sod, and ensure that the top inches of your new sod remain moist (without oversaturation) to promote deep root growth. For the first week after installation, use a frequent, yet shallow watering schedule to allow the sod roots to establish themselves in your soil.

You can gradually reduce the frequency of watering through the second week after installation. After the root system has been established, infrequent yet deep watering can increase sod health and encourage deep root growth.
