TifTuf Bermuda Sod Installation in Knoxville, TN

Drought-tolerant TifTuf Bermuda sod, prepped and laid by one in-house Knoxville crew

Why Choose TifTuf Bermuda SOD?

Knoxville’s hot summers, clay-heavy soil, and unpredictable rainfall make choosing the right grass critical. TifTuf Bermuda is engineered to perform in exactly these conditions. Here’s why it’s an outstanding choice for Tennessee homeowners:

  • Exceptional Drought Tolerance: In University of Georgia testing, TifTuf Bermuda uses 38% less water than Tifway Bermuda while maintaining better turf quality — meaning it stays green even when other grasses go dormant under drought stress.
  • Stays Green Without Going Dormant: Unlike other Bermuda varieties that go dormant and turn brown during dry periods, TifTuf maintains its color and quality without requiring heavy irrigation once established.
  • Built for Tennessee’s Heat: As a warm-season grass, TifTuf Bermuda thrives during Knoxville’s long, hot summers, spreading aggressively to create a thick, dense lawn that crowds out weeds naturally.
  • Low Maintenance Once Established: TifTuf’s vigorous growth habit means fewer inputs once it roots. Its dense canopy reduces weed pressure, cutting down on herbicide needs over time. Learn More!

Will and his team at GSL did a wonderful job taking up our old grass, adding compost mix and laying beautiful sod. It was a 3000 Sq ft project. Communications were fantastic and the guys were very polite and removed all the leftover bits. Will not hesitate to hire them for our backyard next spring.

Will and his associate just completed my yard and they did an excellent job! They were fast, efficient, and very professional. They treated me like family and my satisfaction was their utmost concern. The only decision you will regret … is “NOT” choosing Knoxville Gladiator Sod!
