This is the first time I have this kind of lawn. It turns brown in
winter. Do I still need to winterize it? If yes, when? Is it too
late now? Thanks.

North Carolina. Sounds like there might be a chance that it's not
too late.

Winterize before Thanksgiving if it is tall fescue (Festuca L.) If warm weather
grass, like bermuda, it is dormant and you can wait until March or
April.

If his brown turf is tall fescue, in North Carolina, in November, it's
dead. More likely, the sod is not a cool season grass.
