3 Tips for Selecting a Trusted Sod Installation Specialist

Kelly Baumbach • Jan 19, 2016

Sod installation work requires the expertise of a professional who understands the types of products available on the marketplace as well the optimal installation techniques for exceptional results. Here at Scott’s Sod Sales & Installation Inc., we have 10 years of background experience within the marketplace, and we know the types of challenges homeowners face when installing sod around their home. In this latest article, we’re offering three tips for selecting a trusted sod installationspecialist.

1. Choose a Company Rated within the Industry

The company chosen should be well rated within the industry, as well as by previous customers. This means the property owner should research the company online and review the company’s ratings with organizations such as Better Business Bureau. The Better Business Bureau rate organizations according to information from previous customers, and can therefore be trusted to offer an unbiased look at the firm and their services.

2. Speak with a Representative of the Company First

Before booking sod installation work for their Calgary property, owners should speak with a representative of the company. They should get a quote for the installation work and discuss the timeframe for the project completion. This can ensure that all parameters of the project meet the property owner’s objectives.

3. Discuss a Maintenance Schedule with the Installation Firm

Once the installation work has been completed and the area is in optimal condition for the coming months, property owners should work with the installation firm to create a refined maintenance schedule. This schedule should take into consideration that the type of sod is appropriate to the property to ensure the new lawn remains at peak health for years to come.

Through effective selection of a local sod installation company, Airdrie and Calgary homeowners can ensure their exterior areas retain peak health in the future. To discuss this process with an expert, contact our team at Scott’s Sod Sales & Installation Inc. directly at (403)890-2267.
