"After the removal of seven Leland Cypress trees, we had 1500 ft.² of bare ground that needed sod. Ken scheduled to deliver and lay our sod yesterday. Work was very timely and done well. Very pleased and felt pricing was extremely reasonable. This was Bermuda sod and laid first week of October. Fully expect it to Root well and really take off next summer."

"I can't say enough good things about this company and the owner and his crew .They did a super great job on the trees and left our yard cleaner than they found it. All are very polite and very hard workers. The Price was much better than we expected and the job was done on time. They come when they say they will and they worked very hard until dark stopped them. They had to come back the next morning to finish chipping some limbs. They were here when they said they would be and finished the job and cleaned the yard. It was wonderful to have a company that we could trust to do what they said and at a fair price also. This company is number one with us and I will tell my neighbors and friends to give them a call should they need tree service.

"Jason did a great job with our backyard.  We had a huge concrete slab/driveway that took up almost half of our yard.  Jason cut out most of the concrete, used the remnants to level out the space, and made a beautiful new set of back steps, patio, and drainage in our yard.  He also made a great little fire pit.  He finished with leveling out the yard, laying sod/seed, and planting some plants.  The project was extensive and took more time than we would have liked, but most of that was due to a very rainy spring (and the need for dry ground to do the next steps in the project).  We would definitely use Jason again in the future.    He envisioned the project, created exactly what he said he would, and kept the cost to a minimum.  Now we have a very enjoyable backyard instead of a concrete parking lot.  We love it!

FAQs for sod installation projects in Ashland City, TN

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.
