What Our Customers Say
4.9 out of 5 stars from 253 reviews on Google Leave a Review
Lee B. Google review "I was interested in having new sod put down. Called for recommendations. Called me back immediately. Very patient. Very professional. Could not have been easier to work with. Highly recommend."
Paul C. Google review "Stopped here for a couple pieces of sod to fill in the spot under our old basketball hoop. Perfect size, perfect price. Try them out!"
"Bayside Sod installed new sod in my back yard three months ago and I engaged them to treat the entire yard monthly. They are doing an excellent job in maintaining the grass. They are always responsive when I call and will send their technician out upon request when ever I have an issue. Ryan Sigrist (Director of Turf Services) is always responsive and treat the company like he is the owner. I have been in my home for seven years and this is the best that I have seen my lawn."
