How does YardGrade rank sod installation companies in Toronto?

YardGrade tracks 81 sod installation companies working across Toronto, with a median 4.82★ Google rating over 15,687 reviews. Installed sod installation typically runs $1.50–$3.50 per sq ft according to Sodding GTA. YardGrade ranks every company by verified review data and verification checks, never paid placement, so the shortlist below reflects real reputation.

Rankings can't be bought. YardGrade scores each company with a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating, which weighs review volume so a 5.0 on three reviews does not outrank a 4.8 on three hundred. We then add small verification boosts for an active website, a listed phone number and real project photos. In Toronto, 75% of rated sod installation companies clear 4.8★, so ranking gaps are meaningful. Positions update as new review data lands. Read our full methodology.
