Fresh, healthy sod that gives you an instant green lawn graded and laid to root fast.
Sod installation on Lago Vista's rocky lakeside slopes and thin Hill Country soil is a completely different job than laying turf on level, built-up ground. Your property near Lake Travis or out in Bar-K Ranches or Point Venture sits on terrain that demands proper prep and the right grass variety to take hold fast and stay green through the Texas heat. Corral Bros knows exactly how to grade, amend, and lay premium sod on these hillside lots so it roots strong and your lawn actually survives.
The thin, rocky soils around Lago Vista won't support just any installation. We remove your old lawn and weeds, then build the right base-proper grading, soil amendment, and drainage-because water runs off these slopes instead of soaking in. We use Texas-proven grasses like St. Augustine, Zoysia, or Bermuda and lay them tight so the seams knit together fast. You get a starter fertilizer and a real watering schedule so your new sod establishes before the summer heat hits.

We're a local, family-built company that treats your Lago Vista property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and sod installation that holds up to Travis County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
St. Augustine is the most popular sod in Central Texas because it tolerates shade and heat, while Zoysia offers a dense, low-maintenance turf and Bermuda thrives in full sun with high drought tolerance. We recommend the right grass based on your sun, soil and water goals.
Stay off new sod for about two weeks so the roots can knit into the soil, then keep heavy traffic light for the first month. Water it daily, sometimes twice a day in summer, for the first two weeks. With proper watering, new sod usually roots within two to three weeks.
Your lot's thin soil, rocky base, and steep grade mean water drains fast and grass roots struggle to anchor. Corral Bros grades carefully, amends the soil, and chooses grasses that handle slope and poor soil. Flat suburban yards don't need this level of foundation work. Lago Vista hillsides do.
Cost depends on lot size, current condition, slope, and soil work required. Rocky, steep properties take more prep than flat ones, so estimates vary widely. We provide free on-site quotes within 48 hours so you know exactly what the job costs before we start. Call (737) 404-9343.
St. Augustine handles shade and poor soil well. Zoysia thrives in heat and tolerates thin ground. Bermuda greens up fast but needs full sun. We assess your lot's sun, slope, and soil, then recommend the grass that will actually survive in Lago Vista, not just look good in the first month.
New sod needs consistent moisture for the first three to four weeks so roots establish. We include a starter fertilizer and provide a watering schedule tailored to Lago Vista's season and your lot's sun exposure and drainage. Overwatering is as bad as underwatering on our rocky slopes.
Yes, if the foundation is right. We grade for proper drainage, amend thin soils so sod anchors, and lay tight seams that knit fast. On steep Lago Vista properties, we may use erosion control fabric under the sod to hold it until roots lock in. The slope itself doesn't scare us.
Yes. We haul off dead grass, weeds, and debris, then prep the bare ground properly. On rocky Lago Vista lots, this removal step is critical because we need to see and grade the actual soil underneath. A rushed removal leaves you with a poor foundation and sod that fails.
