$200 minimum invoice. Please be respectful when inquiring. I am a locally owned and operated company. I have been doing this longer then some people have been alive, and am dedicated to the satisfaction of my clients.

"Absolutely horrible services we were ripped off and lied too! He seemed very nice when we spoke on the phone but the work this men does is so bad. We paid him $150 for spring clean up (normal average for most Landscapping businesses) and he told us what’s included in the price yet all he did was cut the grass which by the way was left so long we wanted it to be much shorter and he trimmed few plants and the rest were left the way they were leafs everywhere, small branches everywhere, weeds everywhere just a total disappointment if you’re going to promise somthing keep your word and do your work. Very unprofessional business!!!"

"Additionally, he was suppose to get rid of an overgrowth of weeds on the side of the lawn. He told me when he tried to excavate the weeds he came across an underground pipe which the town had installed. He was afraid that he may cause damage to the pipe , so he said instead of excavating the weeds he would come back and spray weed killer on that area. He has yet to come back and spray that area down. After he installed the lawn, it was pretty much bare. I notice that there was an uneven surface in the lawn that was not properly filled out with topsoil. As a result, water began to settle (stagnant ) on the property whenever it rains. I reached out to the provider, I sent him a photo of what the area looked like. He promise to come back and add more topsoil, he has not been back and now that area is growing moss. I took another photo and send it to the provider explaining to him that it has caused damage on the property , again he told me he would take care of it. Additionally , there are bald spots in the lawn and also an overgrowth of weeds. Again, I brought this to the provider's attention. First he stated he would come back to do a weed and feed. When he did not show up I tried calling him he has not responded or returned my phone call. I texted him letting him know that I was looking forward to him coming over to take care of the issues with my lawn and I haven't seen or heard from him. He texted me back saying he shouldn't have to come back to fix my lawn, since I should have been watering the lawn everyday. My responds was , clearly it is not a watering issue since the lawn is green and full in some areas , while other areas are bald. Initially when we signed the contract he agreed to coming back and re-seed if there were any bald spots."

Sod installations FAQs

Seeding is less expensive up front compared to sod installation. However, sod provides an instant lawn with minimal maintenance, while seeded lawns require extended care and can take up to two years to fully establish.

“To determine how much sod you need, first calculate your yard’s total area by sketching your layout and multiplying each section’s length by its width. Standard sod pieces measure 2 feet by 1½ feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. Divide your total square footage by this pallet coverage figure and consult your sod provider for precise estimates to ensure you purchase the correct amount.”

“New sod develops a strong root system within 10 to 14 days, so it is not ready for heavy use until this period is complete. Do not walk on or disturb the sod during this critical phase, as premature activity delays healthy rooting. Allow the grass to settle firmly to secure long-term lawn durability.”

“You can begin limited, careful use of your lawn two weeks after installation to allow initial rooting. However, refrain from heavy traffic or frequent mowing until six weeks have passed and the roots have fully anchored the sod. Consistent watering during this period is essential to promote robust development and long-term stability.”

“After installation, monitor your sod closely for balanced color and uniform moisture. Watch for brown patches or uneven growth, as these indicate dehydration or nutrient deficiencies. Maintaining a steady watering schedule and ensuring the sod remains undisturbed during its early stages are essential steps to guarantee robust root development and a healthy, attractive lawn.”

“The best time to install sod is during spring or fall. These seasons offer optimal temperatures and moisture levels that ensure rapid rooting and strong establishment. Avoid installing sod in winter when the ground is frozen or in summer when extreme heat can dehydrate the grass, as proper conditions are critical for a durable lawn.”
