The Process
Our sod producers begin harvesting at 4 AM every morning. Meanwhile, our team is at the shop, planning out your Toronto property lawn. By 9 AM we receive the sod and begin to head to your job site. Our team then begins to remove the previous sod. Once the old sod is removed we till down 7 inches ensuring the soil will be loose enough for the roots of the fresh sod. The landscape is then leveled and a high-quality triple mix and fertilizer are added to make sure your fresh sod receives all the nutrients required to make it the greenest lawn on the block. Once we have finished the preparation work we begin to lay the sod. Having the sod harvested and laid within 12 hours. To finish off the installation we roll the sod and give our clients detailed instructions on how to care for their new lawn.
Toronto Soil Characteristics
The city of Toronto has a diverse soil composition, influenced by its glacial history, sedimentary bedrock, and urban development. The city predominantly features clay-rich soils, especially near Lake Ontario, which are dense and retain moisture well but can pose drainage challenges. In some areas, particularly near river valleys and elevated landforms, sandy loam soils offer better drainage and are more suitable for sod and landscaping. Urban green spaces often have amended soils with high organic content to improve fertility and counteract compaction.
The city’s underlying limestone and dolostone bedrock contribute to slightly alkaline soil in some areas, affecting nutrient availability. Urbanization has also altered natural soil, introducing compacted fill materials that require rehabilitation for successful sod installation. Seasonal freeze-thaw cycles further impact soil structure, particularly in clay-heavy areas. With proper amendments like organic matter, pH balancing, and drainage solutions, Mr.Sod can give you the best lawn on the block.
