Good soil is the foundation of everything. Whether you're laying a new lawn, building up garden beds, or filling in a yard, the quality of your soil makes all the difference. At Stebran, we store our topsoil indoors year-round, which means it's always dry, screened, and ready to go. It's one of those things that sounds simple, but it's rare, and our customers notice it every time.
Top Dressing: Over time, lawns lose soil through compaction and erosion. Top dressing is the practice of adding a thin layer of topsoil over your existing lawn to gradually improve soil quality, even out uneven terrain, and fill in bare spots. The grass grows right through it, and the results speak for themselves.
Overseeding: Patching bare spots or thinning areas? Spread a layer of topsoil over the affected areas before seeding. It gives your seed the healthy base it needs to germinate properly and fill in fast.
Sod Installation: Starting a brand new lawn? Topsoil is a key part of getting it right. Grade and shape your installation area with a 3 to 6 inch depth of topsoil before laying your sod, and you'll set your new lawn up for strong, deep root development from day one.
