Is your Mount Prospect lawn looking a little brown? Do you struggle with ever-expanding brown spots or even yard flooding? New sod installation might be the solution for your problems. Laying down new sod can be a pain, but sometimes it’s necessary to restore the health of your lawn.

If you want to have a healthy, green lawn again but the backbreaking work of putting down sod doesn’t sound appealing to you, our landscaping experts can help. We install new sod for Mount Prospect homes and businesses and help you restore the health of your lawn.

“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"

Signs your lawn needs new sod

How can you tell if your lawn needs new sod? If you notice flooding, excessive brown spots, or the wrong type of grass on your lawn, you might have to put down new sod.

If you don’t have a grass type that’s compatible with the weather and seasonal changes here, it could leave your lawn looking brown and dead. In this case, your best solution might be replacing the sod.

10 year Drainage guarantee

Introducing our unbeatable guarantee: Bid farewell to sitting water in your yard or basement. Should you ever experience this issue, we commit to promptly address and fix it at absolutely no cost. But here’s the cherry on top – if, by a rare chance, the problem persists after our intervention, we’ll not only resolve it but also treat you to two plane tickets to Hawaii. Your satisfaction is not just our promise; it’s an unforgettable experience waiting to happen.

Benefits of sod installation

If you’re trying to make your lawn healthy and green again, can’t you just use seeding, springing, plugging, or other less intensive methods than sodding? You can, but these techniques might not be what your lawn needs. Plus, new sod installation has several benefits for your lawn

How Ware Landscaping makes lawns beautiful by installing sod

Sod is often the best solution for a flawless, beautiful lawn – especially if you want to get it done quickly. 

The sod installation experts at Ware Landscaping will help you decide what type of grass works best for your property. We source the highest quality sods, with extensive knowledge of what will grow and thrive in Northern Illinois. 

A step-by-step overview in sod installation

This is what to expect when you work with Ware: 

We’re also available to answer your questions, even after installation. If you have any concerns about your new grass, let us know so that we can help you find the right solution! 

Our sod installation process for Mount Prospect properties

When you call the sod installation experts at Ware Landscaping, we’ll follow a thorough process to ensure your sod is prepared and laid down properly. We pay attention to details because we want your new lawn to last you a long time.

Step 1: Free consultation

The process starts when you contact our experts for a lawn and sod evaluation. We’ll come to your property to provide you with our professional assessment and recommendations — free of charge. We’ll also offer you a quote for our services.

Step 2: Soil preparation

Before we can put down the new sod, we’ll prepare the soil by:

  • Removing weeds
  • Removing existing grass
  • Leveling the ground for smoother installation


If we don’t do the prep work, your new sod won’t take as well and your lawn won’t end up looking healthy and green like you imagined it.

Step 3: Sod laying

Once we’ve prepared the soil, we can install freshly cut sod. We ensure it’s put down properly without leaving any bare spots or lines in your lawn.

Step 4: Watering

After the sod is down, we’ll help ensure its longevity by deeply watering it underneath, to establish good root development. 

Our experienced landscaping professionals can take on large or small yards, for residential or commercial properties. We can cover your entire yard in new sod or choose smaller pieces to match your existing grass, if you just have a few bare spots you’d like to cover.

We’re happy to discuss your landscaping needs, whatever they may be. Give us a call and ask about our sod installation process and we can answer all of your questions.

View More Testimonials

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!”

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.”

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.

FAQs

Mid-August to early September is the best time to lay down new sod in northern Illinois. Alternatively, you could also do it in April. Ideally, you should avoid doing it mid-summer or in the middle of the growing season if possible. Our landscaping experts can help you determine the best time to install new sod for your Mount Prospect lawn.

It can take between two to six weeks for your new sod to take root. The warmer the temperature, the faster the rooting happens. You can typically expect the grass to be fully developed within one month.

You should always lay sod as tightly as possible. However, don’t try to stretch it to cover empty spots. Lay it flat, without wrinkles. Ensure you have enough sod to cover your desired area to avoid having to leave spaces. Our sod installation experts will put down your sod properly so your lawn looks healthy.
