Watch as we transform a rough, 3,200 square foot dirt lot into a lush, green lawn—all in just one day! In this video, we take you behind the scenes of a full sod installation for a local daycare, walking you through every step of the process—from gravel and topsoil prep to the final turf rollout.
You’ll see firsthand how we’ve turned our passion for outdoor spaces into a career we love. Whether you’re a landscaping pro or just love a good before-and-after, this is one satisfying transformation you won’t want to miss.

the piles of dirt you’re seeing right now was the same day we installed it with a vibrant green saw Today we’re going to show you how we transformed a 3200 ft dirt pit into a beautiful front for a daycare So here on site got two big sections going in over here Got some concrete chunks to pull out that people threw in here But we’re going to be taking all this dirt flattening it out ready for saw here in this section and on that section on the other side So that’s our goal today As well as there’s some gardens in the back of the property which I’ll show you guys later that we’re going to be filling up with garden soil So we got our machines here We got the ditch witch So yeah we’ll set up a camera and watch us go Let me take a minute to explain what we’re doing The property we’re on right now is a daycare And there are two parts we are working on the front and the back First we will need to fill in the proper spaces with gravel top it off with dirt and then finally place down the side We’ll start with the front and work our way to the back where the playground will be So we came out here and stockpiled all this dirt in this section We didn’t quite get exactly enough in it seems So this side’s pretty good There’s a substantial dip here This all has to get filled in We might as well just get a slinger truck to throw it in That’s what we’re going to do I guess we got that slinger coming in throwing in the last of the dirt and it’s looking pretty close to exactly what we need Once he’s done I’ll set the camera up and we’ll time-lapse the rest of this pad Here you can see we got the slinger truck in loaded up the front yard with fresh dirt and got back to work And this man here is Jonah A few years back we decided we didn’t care for the usual career track so we chose instead to become our own bosses Together we run our own landscaping business Heat up [Music] After smoothing out the dirt at the front of the property we moved to the back where the playground would eventually be installed Here’s the area for the playground It’s about 12 in thick right now deep We got to add all this road base in Plan is to have this all prepped up today We’ve got uh iron gates going along all these curbs Guys from Riverside are over here getting it ready so that they can fabricate it And then we’re going to put top soil in over here grade it down to this fence which they call the streamside fence which we built earlier this year You know what we actually built it in December so it was pretty wet when we put it in We’re going to grade it out and we’re putting a wildflower mix of seed down for this area So yeah we’ll uh keep putting dirt in [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] So this is the back of the property We were working originally around the other side of the building there in the front but here’s the back And we’re going to be taking this load of soil and grading it out as far as we can get this way Cover this all with dirt This looks like there’s lots of gravel in here but the gravel is another 8 to 12 in lower than the actual curb So that’s going to get filled up And then later we got a slinger truck coming I’m going to have him back into here and hopefully he can shoot in the rest of the gravel the dirt we need in here That should work out perfectly We’ll see how far we get today [Applause] [Music] After all the gravel was done and the soil laid down it was time to install the turf [Music] [Music] Yes that’s good So we got a bunch of sod It’s all going to go down over there They had to pour some new forms there So that ground’s messed up But we’re going to try using this machine to carry some pallets around I think he’s getting us more But this is a good start Going down over here and down over there So here we got the final saw install Took us all day to put this in but I also had to have most of the crew helping with other tasks and stuff on site such as like the trees There’s grading and we had the whole back field over there is getting hydro seated on Monday So can’t quite uh have the full crew otherwise this could have been down in half a day Um but no it’s going in well Going to have the sprinkler on it for a little while and then uh boss Jonah is going to be watering it over the weekend Couple times a day make sure this all sticks So let’s get some final shots of it Let’s take a quick reminder of where this project started And here is the final result Thank you for watching If you enjoyed the video please like and subscribe It’s free and helps us know you liked our content If you have any feedback please share it in the comments We’ll see you on the next project
