"Everything went great.  Fritz delivered the trailer the weekend before the work was to start, giving me ample time to unload the garage and even paint the walls myself first.  His team arrived on time on the day of the work and was very professional checking with me to make sure that they had everything right.
They started by grinding down the old floor, getting rid of any stains that were on there.  Then Fritz himself came and applied the first coating of the flooring.  They then applied a thick layer of paint chips to make sure the floor was covered with the coloring that I had ordered.  They vacuumed up the excess.  Finally they applied a clear coating on the top of the paint.  The result was a beautiful floor that some compared to a granite countertop.
On the second day they came out and hung all of the cabinets, overhead racks, and wall storage equipment.  This was all done very professionally and is all solid and high quality equipment.  They even hung a couple of Sam's Club racks that I had bought myself (for a small additional fee).  
Afterward I realized that there were a couple more wall mounted hooks that I wanted.  Fritz was able to get these ordered and installed as well.  He was always very patient and professional in all dealings that I had with him.  
Everything got done before our party.  At the party I can't even count the number of people who came up to me out of the blue and complimented how great the flooring looked.  Fritz is the man when it comes to redoing a garage.  I'm very happy with how everything turned out.

"Milton and his crew did an excellent job taking down our spruce tree, chopping and grinding it up. Using safety ropes and saws they climbed our trees and made them look a lot better. We recently got a new fence near the locust tree and then decided we needed to have the locust tree trimmed. Milton and his crew carefully removed the problem limbs and cleaned up our yard and the neighbors' yards. Before the men left, Milton chopped up the stump on the spruce tree and the men cleaned up all the debris that fell in the yard. They cleaned up all the tree debris in the street in front of the house before they left. They did an excellent job cleaning up the tree debris and left and yard and street in great shape. They cut the trees neatly with no striped bark or any damage."

"I've worked with Start To Finish on several projects and they are great to work with. They do a great job, providing cost effective options, talking about different ways to approach the project and what the pros and cons are, so as a consumer who doesn't do these kinds of things very often I still feel like I can make an informed decision. The project went according to plan, and as always Jeff and team followed up to make sure everything was just right."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Alexandria, IN

Seeding costs less up front, but you’ll wait months—and sometimes a full season—for the grass to fill in. Sod costs more per square foot, yet it gives you an instant, usable lawn the day it’s installed and needs far less care during the first year. 

If speed and early curb appeal matter, the higher sod price is often worth it; if you’re watching every dollar and don’t mind the wait, seed can still be a smart play.

Start by sketching your lawn and breaking it into rectangles or circles. Measure each section, multiply length by width, and then add all the sections together for the total square footage. Standard sod rolls are two feet by 1.5 feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. 

Divide your total area by 450 to see how many pallets you need, then round up—extras come in handy for cutting around curves or mistakes. Still unsure? A local sod supplier or installer can confirm your math before you order.

Most sod grips the soil within 10 to 14 days. During that stretch, keep foot traffic to a minimum and mow only if the grass gets tall. After two weeks, the roots should be strong enough for light use, but wait six weeks before heavy play or frequent mowing. Giving the grass that short honeymoon helps it anchor firmly and sets the stage for a durable, healthy lawn.

Give your new lawn two full weeks before any foot traffic, then stick to light use only. Hold off on vigorous play, parties, or regular mowing until the six-week mark so the roots can dig deep. Keep watering on schedule and watch for any dry patches. A little patience now means stronger turf and fewer repairs later.

Keep an eye on color, moisture, and even growth. Fresh sod should stay uniformly green; brown spots or gaps hint at dry soil or poor contact. Water deeply at least once a day for the first week (more in hot weather) and back off gradually after the roots take. Avoid heavy foot traffic until the grass feels firmly anchored. Quick attention to trouble spots now prevents costly patches later.

Aim for spring or early fall when daytime temps hover between 55°F and 80°F. Mild weather and consistent moisture help the roots knit quickly. Laying sod in midsummer can stress the grass, while frozen winter soil blocks rooting altogether. 

If you must install outside the ideal window, budget extra time for watering and tending to the turf. Choosing the right season makes the job easier and the lawn tougher.
