When it comes to grass here in North County California, you have two options (for most grasses) Seed & Sod and seed both have advantages and disadvantages.    We can make a recommendation to you based on your input and your property.   We charge you the same price as you would pay buying it yourself directly from the sod farm!   Below is some extra information on both.

Allows weed seeds time to germinate as well (not a good thing).

Requires very frequent water until the seeds germinate (as much as once an hour depending on temp.)

Sod:
