Fresh, healthy sod that gives you an instant green lawn graded and laid to root fast.
If your San Marcos lawn is thin, patchy, or just worn out from Texas heat and student foot traffic, sod installation gets you a thick, green yard in days instead of months. The thing about San Marcos soil-whether you're in Blanco Gardens, Willow Creek, or perched on those upland spots-is that it's either spring-fed riverside clay or thin and rocky. Sod skips the guesswork: we remove what's there, prep the ground right for your property's actual conditions, and lay premium Texas sod that roots fast in local soil.
Our crew handles the whole job. We pull out the old turf and weeds, grade the bed, lay St. Augustine or Zoysia depending on your sun and drainage situation, roll it tight so the seams knit together, and send you home with a starter fertilizer and real watering instructions. Whether you've got a rental property in town, a river house, or an active-adult community lot, we show up with the right sod choice and the work ethic to get it done clean. Free estimates within 48 hours-just call us.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Marcos property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and sod installation that holds up to Hays 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.
Cost depends on your lawn size, soil prep needs, and sod type. San Marcos properties vary widely-riverside lots and upland yards need different grading work. Corral Bros gives free on-site estimates so you see exactly what your yard needs. Call (737) 404-9343 to get scheduled.
St. Augustine thrives in our spring-fed and riverside areas where moisture holds. Zoysia handles the thin upland soils better and tolerates heat and foot traffic-great for rentals and busy neighborhoods like Kissing Tree. We recommend based on your specific lot and sun exposure during the estimate.
In San Marcos, well-prepped soil and our watering plan get sod rooted in two to three weeks. You'll see green immediately, but roots establish fastest with consistent water and no foot traffic those first weeks. We give you the exact watering schedule at installation.
Yes. We strip the old turf and weeds, haul it off, then grade and prep the bed so your new sod sits on solid ground. That prep work is crucial in San Marcos-especially on upland properties where soil compaction and drainage matter. It's all included.
