What does it cost to put in a new lawn?
The cost of a new lawn installation typically ranges from $1,500 to $6,000 for an average residential property, depending on the size, installation method (sod vs. seeding), ground preparation needs, and grass type. Sod installation is more expensive upfront but provides immediate results, while seeding or hydroseeding costs less but takes longer to establish.
