Sod & Irrigation

Any home or commercial property in Minnesota would truly enjoy having a well-maintained lawn. The mere sight of green grass that has been trimmed to perfection is undeniably very uplifting. It could provide a great recreational space for families or serve as a mentally relaxing place for employees in a particular commercial property.

At Designscape, we offer premium lawn services, including sodding services. Our team can install sod no matter how small or large your property is and whether it is a residential or commercial area.

Why We Recommend Sod over Seeding

There are various methods of crafting a lawn with grass or turf. Sodding and seeding are two of the most popular methods. At Designscape, we recommend sod installation for a number of reasons. Here are some of the advantages of sodding over the seeding method:

  • This can turn bare soil into a lush green lawn in just a matter of hours and can, thus, be used immediately. Seeding requires a great amount of time for it to grow and completely cover the bare soil.
  • Ideal for use on slopes to prevent the harmful effects of soil erosion.
  • Increases the value of a property by boosting its aesthetic appeal almost instantly.
  • Sodding allows installation in any season. In seeding, installation must only take place during the growing season.
  • Although perceived as more expensive, sodding saves time, effort, and money because you won’t have to plant, water, or fertilize seeds in order to get a green lawn. Also, it is initially weed free because it has already been cared for until maturity at a sod farm.

Quality Installation, the Designscape Way

Our company follows a strict process in every service that we provide. Our team of sod installers is well-equipped with the knowledge, skill, tools, and equipment required in performing the job efficiently. We make sure that your lawn is well prepared. After preparation, we make sure that grass is laid properly so that it will grasp the soil efficiently.

We also offer various types of sod, including bluegrass, which is popular in Minnesota. Our materials are sourced from our reliable farm partners in the country. There is no problem if you need large volume of sod materials since we can cater to big lawn projects.

Irrigation Types that We Install

Our company installs all possible irrigation systems depending on the client’s needs. Specifically, we build the following water supply systems:

  • Surface system. This irrigation system ranks as one of the world’s oldest. This system counts on gravity as an ally in watering tracts of land. For areas with hilly parts, this could be the perfect system to adopt, since nature basically does the work of ensuring a steady supply of water for plants and other vegetation.
  • Drip or trickle. This hydration system is usually used on orchards, vineyards, and vegetable plantations. It targets the plant roots and prevents water run-off and is considered an efficient water saver.
  • Solid set system. This system uses overhead sprinklers, guns, or sprays and involves a series of pipelines where water is supplied. It is commonly used in orchards and vineyards as well as in turf and landscaping applications.

What Makes Our Irrigation Services Different?

While there are other irrigation system installers in the state, our company separates itself from the rest through several great advantages. Specifically, these are what set us apart from the others:

  • Care for the surroundings. Installing an irrigation system takes a great level of expertise to ensure that it will work fine and that no other landscape element will be ruined. With inexperienced water supply system installers, certain elements like plants and ornamentals could get ruined in the process. But with us, you’re assured that no damages will happen to plants and concrete structures. Accordingly, if there are elements that will be affected, we will ensure that they will be taken care of and not damaged in any way.
  • Efficient and expert installation. When you hire us to work on your water supply system needs, we can design the irrigation or incorporate it in the landscape design. This will let you just sit back and have us take care of business. With our team of professional landscape builders, you can enjoy the benefits of a fully working plant hydration system within a short period.
  • Option for system upgrade. Meanwhile, if you happen to have an existing system and just want to upgrade or have a totally new one installed, we’ll be happy to accommodate you. Being experts in this task, we can assure you that we won’t do a hit-or-miss job but provide great results with ease.
