Rio Grande City Sod & Irrigation Installation — Licensed & Insured

Rio Grande City sits in Starr County with a population of roughly 15,317, close enough to Mission that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include the Starr County courthouse square, Fort Ringgold, US-83.

Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Rio Grande City properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Starr County, and a sod installation contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.

Call (844) 511-2320 or send the form and we schedule a site visit in Rio Grande City, usually within a couple of days. You get a written, itemized free estimate with materials and scope spelled out — no verbal ballpark, no pressure, and no charge whether you hire us or not. Se habla español.

We also serve Hidalgo, TX and the rest of the Upper Rio Grande Valley. Everything starts at the Mission Elite Sod & Turf homepage.

Mission Elite Sod & Turf covers the same range of work in Rio Grande City that we do in Mission — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:

• St. Augustine Sod — St. Augustine sod is still the most requested lawn grass in Mission and the Upper Valley, because it takes the heat, tolerates the partial shade under a mesquite or a live oak, and puts down a thick blue-green carpet that keeps weeds from getting a foothold.
• Bermuda Sod — Bermuda sod is the water-smart choice for a full-sun yard in Mission, and with Upper Valley rainfall running near 21 inches a year that argument gets easier every summer. Hybrid Bermuda uses noticeably less water than St.
• Zoysia Sod — Zoysia sod is the upgrade people ask for once they have owned a St. Augustine lawn and grown tired of feeding it — it grows slowly, so you mow less, and it grows densely, so it crowds out most weeds without a spray program behind it.
• Artificial Turf Installation — Artificial turf installation earns its keep in Mission in a short list of places: a side yard the sun never reaches, a dog run real grass has already surrendered, a courtyard too small to bother mowing, and commercial islands surrounded by hot pavement where irrigation never worked properly anyway. Everywhere else real sod is cheaper to install and cooler to stand on, and we will say so before you spend the money.
• Commercial & HOA Sod — Commercial sod installation across Mission, Sharyland and McAllen is where most of our volume goes, and it is a logistics job as much as a landscaping one. We install and irrigate turf for HOA common areas and entries, apartment and multifamily properties, retail and medical campuses, school grounds, city parks and detention basins, priced by the pallet on anything over 10,000 square feet.
• Sports Field & Athletic Turf — Sports field turf is judged on two things only: whether it drains and whether the surface is true. We build and renovate soccer pitches, football and multi-use fields, baseball and softball outfields and practice areas for schools, leagues and city parks around Mission and Hidalgo County, almost always on Tifway 419 Bermuda with the irrigation designed as part of the same scope.
