If your yard is mostly bare ground, weeds, or grass that refuses to fill in, waiting another season probably will not solve the problem.
Fresh sod gives you a faster way to establish a thick, healthy lawn without starting from seed. Splawn Sales supplies quality landscape sod and grass for homeowners, contractors, builders, and commercial properties throughout Tyler, TX.
Choose from popular grass varieties suited to East Texas lawns, pick up your sod from our landscape supply store, or schedule sod delivery and professional installation in Tyler.
The right sod can completely change the look and usability of your property. It can cover bare soil, improve curb appeal, create a comfortable outdoor space, and give new construction a clean, finished appearance.
The go-to choice for East Texas shade. St. Augustine handles Tyler's humidity well and holds its color through most of the growing season, making it a favorite for yards with mature trees.
If your Tyler yard gets full sun and sees a lot of activity — kids, pets, weekend cookouts — Bermuda is built for it. It's a fast-spreading, drought-tolerant grass that recovers quickly from heavy wear.
Zoysia splits the difference between St. Augustine and Bermuda - a dense, low-maintenance turf with good drought and shade tolerance once established.

St. Augustine is generally the strongest option among our varieties for lawns with partial shade or filtered sunlight. The amount and duration of shade still matter, so describe your property to our team before ordering.
Tifway 419 Bermuda is a popular choice for sunny, high-traffic lawns. It is commonly used for active residential yards, commercial properties, parks, and recreational spaces.
A pallet of sod from Splawn Sales covers approximately 450 square feet. Measure the length and width of each area you plan to cover, and allow for cuts around beds, trees, sidewalks, and other features.
Before installation, old grass, weeds, rocks, and debris should be removed. The ground should be graded and smoothed so the sod lies flat without dips or air pockets. Any drainage or soil-level issues should also be addressed before the grass goes down.
Once installed, new sod should be watered immediately and kept consistently moist while its roots become established. Avoid heavy traffic and mowing until the sod has rooted securely.
Late spring through early fall gives sod the best chance to root before winter, though it can be laid nearly any time of year in Tyler's mild climate as long as it's watered consistently after installation.
You don’t have to spend another season looking at bare spots and stubborn weeds. Start with quality sod from a local East Texas landscape supplier.
