Sod is the cultivation of various pure natural grass types for the purpose of commercial supply of read-to-install mature grass in the form of rolls for an instant mature grass lawn. 

Sod is by far the most efficient way of creating a lawn compared to the use of seeds and plugs for three major reasons:

• Sod installation creates an instant mature, lush green natural grass lawn (however the new lawn requires close attention and care to get established)
• Sod installation immediately covers the exposed soil thereby helping to eliminate soil lead chemical exposure, especially if one has children and or elderly at home
• Sod installed lawns can immediately help prevent regrowth of weeds (some weeds can be persistent and may require manual intervention over time) and
• Helps prevent soil erosion, and instantly improves the beauty of the yard surroundings.
