The below reasons why Fall and Winter are the best times of the year to start hardscaping projects. The major reason is timing. When you build your hardscapes in Winter, you’ll be able to enjoy them come Spring, unless you include a firepit. Timing the design and constructions allows you to maximize your use of your hardscapes. But timing is not the only advantage to installing hardscapes in Fall or Winter. Let’s dig a bit deeper into why you ought to consider the “off-season” for getting this sort of work done.

· Less Damage to Your Yard

The early Fall or mid-Fall tends to be the best time to plant sod in Northern VA. This is because the temperatures have cooled down from the Summer highs and you tend to get more precipitation during these months. There is plenty of time between Fall and Winter for the sod to root and establish prior to dormancy which means in the Winter, your lawn will be healthy, full and easy to green up in the Spring.
Stop by the Yard and speak with one of our salespersons to discuss your sod requirement. RSSY will make sure you install your sod properly in your yard. Please call us (703) 339-8095 or visit
