Common Lawn Problems in Texas (And How Sod Can Help)
May 6, 2024

If your lawn is looking less than perfect, you’re not alone. Homeowners across Texas face a number of lawn problems caused by heat, soil conditions, and everyday wear and tear. Fortunately, sod installation is one of the quickest and most effective ways to revive a struggling yard. In this blog, we’ll explore common lawn issues in Texas and explain how sod can help solve them.

1. Bare Spots and Patchy Grass

One of the most common issues is bare or thin areas in the yard. These can be caused by foot traffic, pets, drought, or poor soil conditions. If you're tired of reseeding the same areas over and over, sod patch repair is your answer. At Texas Sod Pros, we specialize in patch repair that blends perfectly with your existing lawn for a seamless look.

2. Weed Overgrowth

Texas lawns are prone to weed invasion, especially in neglected or thinning areas. Replacing your lawn with new sod helps choke out weeds from the start. A fresh sod installation gives your yard a clean slate—lush, dense, and weed-free.

3. Drought Damage and Brown Grass

The Texas heat is no joke. Prolonged sun exposure and water restrictions can leave your grass brown and brittle. Instead of trying to revive it season after season, lawn replacement may be the smarter investment. With high-quality sod from Texas Sod Pros, you’ll enjoy a fresh green lawn that’s more drought-resistant and visually appealing.

4. Soil Compaction

Heavy clay soil in many parts of Texas leads to compaction, which prevents roots from absorbing water and nutrients. This makes it hard for grass to thrive. When you install new sod, our team ensures proper soil prep and grading, which helps your new lawn grow stronger and healthier.

5. Pest or Disease Damage

From grubs to fungal diseases, infestations can destroy a lawn quickly. Once damaged, the grass often won’t recover on its own. The solution?
