Lawn Installation in Southern Wisconsin
Sod, seeding, hydroseeding, grading, and full lawn renovation. We prepare the ground right so your lawn actually grows.
What We Do
Great Lawns Start With Great Groundwork
Martinez Landscaping handles every step — from rough grading to finish work to sod or seed installation — so your new lawn has the foundation to thrive from day one.

- Proper grading and drainage built into every installation
- New construction ready — from rough grade to finished lawn
- Licensed and insured in the State of Wisconsin
- Free written estimates before any work starts
Services Included
From Bare Dirt to Finished Lawn
Every installation service you need — grading, drainage, sod, seed, and erosion control — all in one place.
Sod Installation
Instant results — we prep, grade, and lay sod so you have a finished lawn the same week, no waiting for seed to germinate.

Blankets, native plants, and terracing to stop slope erosion and protect your soil through establishment and beyond.

Complete packages for new builds — rough grade to finished sod or seeded lawn, coordinated with your build schedule.

How It Works
Our Lawn Installation Process
Every installation follows the same four-step process — because what’s underneath the lawn matters as much as what’s on top.
Site Evaluation
We assess grade, drainage, soil quality, and current vegetation to build the right plan. No assumptions, no surprises once the work starts.
Rough Grading
Establish proper grade and drainage flow. This is the foundation — we get it right before anything goes on top of it.
Soil Prep & Finish Grade
Topsoil amendment, tilling, and precise finish grading for a smooth, even surface that sets the sod or seed up to succeed.
Sod or Seed Installation
Install premium sod or seed with straw cover as appropriate. We walk you through startup watering guidance before we leave.
