Landscaping in Spring — questions homeowners ask

When is the best time for a sod replacement in Spring?

Early spring, specifically late March through May, is ideal for laying new sod like Raleigh St. Augustine or Bermuda as the ground warms up before the extreme heat of July arrives. Fall is a secondary option, provided the grass has at least six weeks to establish roots before the first frost.

What native plants thrive in the wooded sections of Spring?

For homes in areas like Old Town Spring or Northampton, Turk's Cap and American Beautyberry are excellent native choices that handle the shade and humidity well. These species require less supplemental water than non-natives and are naturally resistant to many local pests.

How much does a landscape redesign cost in the Spring area?

A typical refresh with mulch and new perennials may range from $1,500 to $4,000, while comprehensive front-yard redesigns featuring stone borders and drainage work can exceed $10,000. Your matched professional will provide a precise quote based on your lot size and specific soil needs.
