Landscaping Lehi UT | Call Valley Turf Farms

Absolutely. Patching with our high-quality sod is one of the fastest and most effective ways to repair dead spots caused by irrigation issues here in Lehi. We recommend first diagnosing and fixing the underlying timer or sprinkler problem. Then, our team can help you select the right turf variety for a seamless blend with your existing lawn and provide tips for proper soil preparation to ensure the new sod establishes quickly and thrives in our local conditions.

For Lehi's climate and soil, we often recommend drought-tolerant and wear-resistant varieties like Kentucky Bluegrass blends or certain Turf-Type Tall Fescues. These grasses have deeper root systems and better resilience during occasional heat stress or minor watering inconsistencies. The best choice depends on your specific yard's sun exposure and usage. We can assess your site and recommend the ideal sod to create a more durable lawn that's less susceptible to browning from the occasional irrigation hiccup.

Watering is critical immediately. You should start watering your new sod within 30 minutes of installation in Lehi, keeping it consistently moist for the first two weeks to establish roots. To help prevent future timer failures—a common issue here with mineral buildup and power surges—we suggest a simple maintenance routine: manually run each zone monthly to check for problems, replace timer batteries annually, and consider installing a surge protector. A healthy, well-established sod lawn from Valley Turf Farms also recovers more quickly if a watering miss does occur.
