Whether you’re refreshing your front yard, completing a backyard renovation, or addressing bare spots and erosion, sod installation is the fastest and most effective way to achieve a healthy, vibrant lawn.
Our sod installation services ensure your new lawn is not only visually stunning but also designed to thrive. We carefully select the best grass varieties for your property, considering factors like soil type, sun exposure, and climate.
From preparing the soil to laying the sod and providing essential aftercare tips, our team delivers a seamless process that guarantees long-term success. Whether you’re starting fresh with new construction or revitalizing an existing yard, our expert approach ensures a durable, low-maintenance lawn you’ll love.

Property Docktors is a landscaping contractor based out of Lenoir City, Tennessee and serving Loudon County including Farragut, Kahite, Kingston, Knoxville, Loudon, Rarity Bay, and Tellico Village. We specialize in new lawn installation for our residential and commercial clients using grass seed, installing new high-quality sod. From grading your property and lawn area for proper drainage, and preparing your lawn area with proper top-soil, organizing the installation of irrigation or sprinkler systems, and spreading the grass seed or rolling out the sod we can provide you with a beautiful looking new lawn.
Should You Use Seed Or Sod For Your New Lawn?
This is a question our customers who want a new lawn area often ask us! The answer really depends on three things:
-
- How will the new lawn area be used?
- What is your overall budget?
- Are you under a time constraint?
If you have kids or pets that frequently use and enjoy your lawn area then keeping them off the newly seeded area could be a problem. If that’s the case, sod is usually a better option but installing sod is more expensive than traditional grass seed. With a new sod lawn you’re going to have a green lawn within a day or two and an even more beautiful lawn within a week or two of the installation.
It will look like beautiful grass from day one but you’ll still see the visible lines from the sod being rolled out. It takes a week or two for the grass to blend sufficiently so you won’t notice it.
With grass seed you’re looking at several weeks until you have a beautiful lawn and in many cases it's still not really any cheaper as you need to spend more time final grading a property for grass seed as it's a lot less forgiving than sod!
If you’re on a time constraint, let’s say you’re hosting a big party or a special event like a wedding on your property and you need it to look amazing for the big day, then sod is a much better, more predictable option.

Here's What They Say
My wife and I had the great fortune to utilize the landscaping services of Sam Sparks. His team at Property Docktors tackled my To-Do list like a fine-tuned machine. Sam, along with his foreman Matt, worked directly with us from start to finish. Their professionalism and attention to detail was exceptional. The entire crew is a marvel. The lengths to which they went to get things done per our request is without measure. And as to be expected, our property was transformed from vision to reality. Many, many thanks to Sam, Matt, the crew, and all those working behind the scenes at Property Docktors. I highly recommend them for your landscaping needs!
We highly recommend Property Docktors- Sam Sparks. We began with rough planting plan. He prepared a detailed quote with specific plant recommendations. We reviewed the quote. Sam identified alternate plantings to achieve the colors we wanted. He scheduled a start date and began as planned. He addressed some alternatives as issues were identified. He kept us in the loop throughout the project. The work was done in a timely manner. We get many compliments on the project.
They did what they said. They are a company with great integrity, honesty and a tremendous work ethic. I would recommend them to anyone
Easy to work with, does what he says he’s going to do, and the quote is what I paid. Some people might call this old fashioned but it was a breath of fresh air.
Came with a good plan and executed flawlessly! Great job and it looks beautiful. Thank you Property Doctors!
Sam with Property Docktors is awesome! He went above and beyond for us today. As well as helping us over the phone last month prior to moving here-he provided us with crucial information that we needed regarding concerns w/home inspection during the sales process when purchasing our new house. Sam is extremely knowledgeable & helpful. I would also like to mention we've been homeowners for decades, and have lived in various homes/states over the years and we've met w/contractors for quotes and hired dozens of contactors- Sam is one of the most honest, kind, and customer friendly contractors we have ever had the pleasure of meeting with. And when I say honest, I mean it! He offered us all of his ideas for theses minor things that we could fix inexpensively on our own first and said to contact him if those things didn't fix our issues, but he was pretty confident that it would. Most contractors we have encountered in the past would have easily written up the quote for the work at minimum $2500! We highly, highly recommend Sam with Property Docktors!
