Tall Fescue is a cool-season grass that stays green longer and handles shade far better than Bermuda or Zoysia — making it a strong choice for many Chattanooga lawns. It offers soft texture and good year-round color, though it needs more water in summer and grows quickly in spring and fall.
Proper watering is the key to helping new sod take root in Chattanooga’s hot summers and mild winters. The first few weeks require consistent moisture to build strong roots and prevent stress. This guide covers exactly how often and how deeply to water—from installation day through full establishment—so your new lawn grows healthy, green, and long-lasting.
Bermuda grass is a durable, sun-loving warm-season option that thrives in Chattanooga’s heat and spreads quickly for a full, resilient lawn. While it performs best in full sun and goes dormant in winter, Bermuda sod offers fast coverage and long-lasting toughness, making it a top choice for many Hamilton County homeowners.
