Here are a couple of reminders when laying sod: 

• - The top grade should be without bumps and holes.
• - The joints of the sod should always be staggered.
• - The sod pieces should be placed close together, but not overlapping.
• - If possible start the sodding at a solid straight edge (house, sidewalk), this facilitates straight lines throughout the project.
• - Use a sharp sod knife to cut the sod as needed.
• - Keep the sod moist at all times.
