Serving Greater Houston Since 2007
If you're anywhere in Greater Houston and need fresh sod, bulk materials, or landscaping supplies, we've got you covered. Castillo Grass has been serving the Houston area since 2007 from our two locations in Magnolia and Tomball.
We deliver sod, topsoil, mulch, sand, gravel, and chopped stone across all of Houston and its suburbs — north, south, east, and west. Whether you're a homeowner doing a weekend project or a contractor running a full commercial install, we have the volume and the experience to handle it.
What Grass Works Best in Houston
Houston's climate is warm, humid, and occasionally brutal — which is why choosing the right grass matters. St. Augustine (Raleigh, Palmetto) is the most popular choice across most of Houston for its reliability and shade tolerance. Bermuda varieties like TifTuf and Celebration are excellent for full-sun yards, water efficiency, and athletic use. Zoysia (Palisades, Zeon) is a premium low-maintenance option that's growing in popularity. Not sure which one fits your yard? Call us — we ask a few quick questions and point you in the right direction.
If you lost grass in the February 2021 freeze, you're not alone. Floratam, Empire Zoysia, and JaMur Zoysia were hit hard across Houston. We recommend Raleigh St. Augustine or Palisades Zoysia for freeze-conscious homeowners — both held up well and continue to be our most reliable sellers.

About Greater Houston
Greater Houston is the fourth-largest metro area in the United States — and one of the most diverse landscaping markets in the country. From the dense urban core to the sprawling suburbs of Katy, Cypress, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, and Pearland, Houston's lawns deal with some of the most challenging growing conditions in Texas: hot humid summers, occasional hard freezes, heavy clay soil, and everything in between.
St. Augustine grass dominates Houston — it's in the majority of residential lawns across the city and most of its suburbs. Raleigh St. Augustine has long been the default choice for its reliability, cold tolerance, and adaptability to Houston's clay soil. Palmetto is the upgrade for shaded yards — especially in older neighborhoods with mature trees like the Heights, Memorial, West University, and River Oaks areas. Amerishade is the specialty option for the deepest shade situations.
Bermuda is popular across sunnier Houston suburbs and is the standard for sports fields, commercial properties, and anyone who wants a tight, manicured look. TifTuf Bermuda is our fastest-growing seller because of its documented water savings — a big deal when summer restrictions kick in.
Zoysia is the premium choice for homeowners who want low maintenance and a beautiful lawn year-round. Palisades Zoysia survived the 2021 freeze when other varieties failed, making it a popular choice for homeowners who remember that winter.
Houston's clay soil is one of the most common challenges we help customers solve. The heavy gumbo clay drains slowly, compacts easily, and makes it hard for grass to establish without some help. Our Enriched Topsoil and MicroLife Humates Plus are the two products we recommend most for improving Houston soil before and after sodding.
Castillo Grass has been a part of the Houston-area landscaping industry since 2007. We're a family-run operation — not a big box store, not a franchise. When you call us, you talk to someone who knows the product and knows this area. That's not something you get everywhere.
