What's "sod"?
Pre-grown grass turf — a thin layer of living grass with its roots and a bit of soil attached, grown on a farm and cut into rolls or slabs. You lay it down like a carpet to get an instant lawn, instead of planting grass seed and waiting for it to grow. Need loose soil to fill or level ground instead? Use the Topsoil Calculator.

Roll/pallet coverage varies by sod farm and grass type — check before ordering. Defaults: ~10 sq ft per roll, ~450 sq ft per pallet.
Estimate only. These figures help you plan how much to buy — they are not engineering or structural advice. Actual needs vary with site conditions, waste, and installation method, so order a little extra and confirm final quantities with your supplier or contractor before you buy or start the job.
