Sod Removal, Sprinkler Repair and Grading in Herriman

Here's what we were working with - a front yard that had seen better days. Patchy, struggling sod. Sprinkler lines and heads that weren't doing their job. A few overgrown bushes taking up space. Not a lost cause, but it needed a full reset before anything new could go in.

We stripped out all the old sod and pulled three bushes. From there, we got into the irrigation - fixing the damaged PVC lines and replacing the sprinkler heads that weren't working right. That part matters a lot. You can put down the nicest sod in the world, but if the water isn't hitting the right spots, it's going to fail. We flagged every head so nothing got missed during grading.

Once the irrigation was sorted, we graded the whole property out. Getting the ground level before new sod goes down isn't just about looks - it affects drainage, how the sod roots in, and how the lawn holds up long-term. We finished it off with a fresh layer of topsoil to give the new sod the best possible start.

This kind of prep work is what separates a lawn that looks good for a few weeks from one that actually takes hold and stays healthy. Herriman yards deal with clay-heavy soil and dry summers, so the groundwork has to be done right. Skipping steps here is how homeowners end up calling someone out a second time.

The yard is now fully prepped and ready for new sod installation. Clean grade, repaired irrigation, fresh topsoil - everything lined up the right way before a single roll of sod touches the ground.
