How will the lawn be installed?
Sod installation
Your area is prepared, and you want the sod professionally placed. Access and site readiness still need review.
Lawn renovation
An existing lawn needs removal or preparation before new sod. The exact work depends on the site.
Complete lawn installation
A broader project may include irrigation, topsoil, edging, grading and sod where those services are confirmed for your site.

Establishment field note
Moist, not saturated.
USU establishment guidance recommends watering immediately enough to wet the underlying soil, then maintaining moist—not saturated—soil for roughly 10–14 days while roots establish. Pull back a corner to verify moisture instead of judging only by the grass surface.
