Farm-Direct Sod Delivery

For planning, most grasses are estimated at 450 sq ft per pallet. Zeon zoysia is estimated at 500 sq ft per pallet.

Delivery windows depend on farm cut schedules, weather, and route availability. Submit your preferred date and we confirm final timing with you.

All of our supplied grasses (Fescue, Bermuda, Zoysia, Centipede) thrive in Triangle clay when the site has proper drainage and correct soil preparation. The choice depends more on your specific sun exposure, shade density, and maintenance preferences than the soil type itself.

While sod can root into clay, a light topdressing of quality topsoil during installation helps bridge the gap, improves initial drainage, and gives roots an easier start before they reach the heavier clay layer.

Watering restrictions vary by municipality and season. As a rule, Triangle homeowners should always prioritize high-efficiency coverage and follow local advisories, which often tighten during mid-summer heat or drought. We provide guidance on efficient watering in our care guides.

Best fit: yards with meaningful part shade and homeowners who want greener winter color. Strengths: better shade tolerance than warm-season options and strong cool-season appearance. Limits: summer stress in full blazing sun, especially with shallow roots or inconsistent irrigation. In peak heat, fescue typically needs tighter watering discipline than Bermuda or Zoysia.

Best fit: open lawns with roughly 6–8+ hours of direct sun. Strengths: excellent summer performance, good wear recovery, and fast fill-in when healthy. Limits: weak shade performance and winter dormancy (straw-brown until spring green-up). It also spreads aggressively, so edges near beds and hardscape need routine control.

Centipede generally does not require rich, heavily amended “premium” soil to perform. It is usually chosen for leaner fertility programs and lower-input expectations in acidic Southern soils. Still important: it needs sun, drainage, and solid establishment watering. Think “simpler nutrition plan,” not “plant anywhere and ignore it.”

Best fit: mostly sunny residential lawns where clients want a denser, finer-texture look than common Bermuda. Strengths: strong summer turf quality and durable finished appearance once established. Limits: slower establishment than Bermuda and less forgiving in heavy shade. First-season watering consistency matters if you want it to knit in cleanly.

Best fit: premium Zoysia look in mostly sunny spaces with realistic establishment expectations. Strengths: refined texture and high-end finish once rooted. Limits: slower grow-in than Bermuda and a higher cost profile. On this page, Zeon uses its own supplier pricing and is planned at about 500 sq ft per pallet for coverage math.

Start with sun hours first, then expected maintenance style. More shade usually pushes toward fescue. Strong all-day sun opens Bermuda, Zoysia, and Centipede depending on budget, texture preference, and dormancy tolerance. If your yard has mixed light zones, the right answer may be zone-specific instead of one grass across everything.

No—these are planning guidelines for the Triangle. Microclimate, irrigation coverage, tree competition, pet traffic, and grade all change outcomes. Before scheduling, we still confirm fit, timing, and coverage with you so the grass choice matches your actual site.
