Sod Installation Cost in Seattle

Installing sod can dramatically enhance the appearance of your yard, providing a lush, green space for relaxation and play. However, understanding the costs associated with sod installation in Seattle is essential for homeowners and property managers alike. On average, you can expect to pay between $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot for sod installation, including materials and labor. This article will delve into the various factors that affect sod installation costs, the benefits of sod, and a step-by-step guide to the installation process.

Our Approach

At Neat & Tidy, we believe in making your landscaping projects as hassle-free as possible. Here’s how we tackle sod installation:
