Your lawn is the first thing people see when they arrive at your home—so when it’s looking dry, brown, or patchy, it can take away from your property’s overall curb appeal. While some lawn issues can be fixed with simple maintenance, there are times when your best option is a full sod replacement.

At Broadstone Landscape, we specialize in sod installation that transforms tired, damaged lawns into lush, vibrant outdoor spaces. In this blog, we’ll explore the most common signs that it’s time to replace your sod and give your lawn a much-needed refresh.

1. Persistent Bare or Patchy Spots

If your lawn has stubborn bare patches that don’t recover even after seeding, fertilizing, and watering, it could be time for new sod. Damaged or compacted soil underneath may be preventing healthy growth.

• Solution: Fresh sod from Broadstone Landscape is installed with expert soil prep to give your lawn the best possible start.

2. Thinning Grass or Yellowing Areas

Grass that appears thin, yellow, or dull despite regular care is a strong indicator of root issues or poor soil health. Over time, soil can lose nutrients or become compacted, making it difficult for sod to thrive.

• Pro tip: Our team assesses your soil and selects the right type of sod for your lawn’s needs and sun exposure.

3. Excessive Weeds or Invasive Grasses

A lawn overrun with weeds or undesirable grass types can quickly get out of control. In many cases, the most effective long-term solution is to start fresh with new sod installation.

• Why it works: Sod creates a dense, healthy root system that helps choke out weeds before they can take hold.

4. Pest or Fungus Damage

Certain pests, like grubs, or lawn diseases caused by fungus can destroy large areas of your yard. If you’ve treated the issue but your lawn hasn’t recovered, replacing your sod may be the only way to fully restore it.

• Did you know? We ensure your lawn is pest-free before installation to prevent future issues.

5. Uneven or Bumpy Lawn Surface

A lawn that feels uneven, spongy, or bumpy underfoot may signal underlying problems like poor drainage, thatch buildup, or decaying organic matter. Fresh sod, combined with proper leveling, can restore a clean, even surface.

• Added bonus: Broadstone Landscape can also include drainage solutions as part of your sod replacement.
