Sod Installation in Woodway, TX
Woodway sits up on the hills west of Waco, and that changes how a sod job goes here. A lot of yards have shallow soil over limestone, plus big old live oaks throwing shade across half the lot.
Soil in Woodway
Shallow soil over limestone is the big one. Sod laid straight on rock dries out by July. On most Woodway jobs we bring in a few inches of sandy loam topsoil first, then grade it so water runs away from the house instead of toward it.
Best grass for Woodway yards
Under oaks, go with a shade-tolerant St. Augustine or a Zoysia. Bermuda wants full sun and will thin out under a canopy. Full-sun front yards up near the street can do Bermuda fine.
Good to know
If you want to see what different grasses look like side by side before you pick, the Carleen Bright Arboretum on Bosque Blvd is right here in Woodway and worth a walk.
