In this video, Houston Grass Owner Michael Romine talks about the cost to install sod if you do it yourself and if Houston Grass does it for you.
Summary of the Cost to Install Sod
How much does it cost to install sod? or How much does it cost to have Houston Grass install your sod? We generally charge $70-75 per pallet to install grass. If you get into the truckloads of grass, multiple truckloads, then the price may be a little bit less. But we charge $70-75 whether it’s a front yard, back yard, whatever the conditions are. Prices are updated to 2019 from the prices quoted in the video — call our office at 281-431-7441 to confirm current prices.
That does suppose though that your yard prepared for installation and you have bare dirt, leveled and ready for installation. That’s always the question that we’re going to ask you when you ask about how much does it cost to install a pallet of sod?” We’re going to say “70-75 dollars but it has to be bare dirt and ready to install.”
That means it’s free of all vegetation, debris, it’s leveled up with sand or top soil the way you already want it. If your answer to that question is “No, it’s not ready.” we’re going to get your name, number and address and we’re going to send a member of our install crew out to look at your yard and assess what it would take, whether or not it’s going to need a sod cutter to rip the old grass out. Whether it’s needs to be Round Up’ed to kill the old vegetation before using the sod cutter. If you’ve got a lot of Bermuda grass we’re going to suggest you Round Up it first. We do provide that service, as well. And then we’re going to come back a week, or week and a half later, with a sod cutter and take that out. And then we would level it up if it needed it at that point. Those are all things that the install crew has to come out and assess on a case-by-case basis frankly though. That’s a little bit more subjective.
If you have a new house and the dirt’s just the way you want it, not holding water anywhere, and it’s draining the way you want it we would say it’s $70-75 a palette to install the grass times the number of pallets. We do only deliver full pallets of grass so the $70-75 is kind of a set number.
