"I called Jerry and he answered right away. We primarily communicated via text (very quick responses that way). He came out to do an estimate and his team came out a couple of weeks after that to do the work. His team was great - very kind and professional. They did an excellent job weeding and trimming our shrubbery and cleaned up all mess. They also leveled the uneven ground on one side of our house that had been turned up due to basement construction. He installed sod and put down grass seed in needed areas. The yard looked great and I will definitely be hiring them again next year."

Jeff came out, gave me his advice on the type of stone and finalized a scope of work to approve.  He worked me into the schedule within 30 days and executed flawlessly.  It took 2 days for his crew to complete the job.  Well done!!!

"They sourced and installed ten 12' emerald arborvites which are very difficult to find. They also did our spring clean up of all out mulch beds. The initial order was for 8 trees but once they were installed we decided that we needed 2 more trees, within 24 hours the 2 additional trees were installed. Just a great job by S.A.T.!"

"The team at Following Steps Landscaping arrived punctually in the morning with all the equipment necessary for the tasks. They cleaned up the side yard first before moving on to the patio installation. The patio installation took two days back to back. Once they were done they cleaned up all the debris and hauled it away. They were very professional and were willing to make adjustments as I requested as the work was ongoing."

"All went very well. It took two days to put in the walkway, which is about 25 feet long. Another partial day was used for the bush replacements and the plantings. I got what I requested and my yard was left in very good condition."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Ashley, OH

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.
