When should a New Westminster strata replace common-area sod?
Replace when turf has failed due to compaction, drainage, shade, or pet damage across large common areas — often flagged in depreciation reports or after repeated re-seed attempts fail.

What strata councils ask
How long is sod establishment in New Westminster?
Plan two weeks of daily watering and restricted foot traffic on new sod. We provide a written establishment plan for council and property managers.
Is sod work priced separately from lawn mowing?
Yes — sod is a per-project quote. Ongoing mowing can be added or continued under your existing grounds contract after establishment.
