The biggest issue going against you is the webworms. If Superior treated the lawn for insects, they should be responsible. You might actually have a case against them. (Webworms are pretty easy to spot — you’ll see small, white or light brown butterflies coming out of the grass every time you step on it. They can eat a lawn pretty quickly.) If you didn’t contract for lawn insecticides, you really have no recourse but to pay to resod yourself.

A good common sense post. Webworms killed the lawn. If you didn't pay for insect treatment, you are out of luck. If you did, Superior should pay. If they don't - small claims court.
