"Herbal Thymes did an amazing job with our landscape design after a major renovation of our house. Jackie came up with a great design that incorporated our wishes and recognized our budget. Her and her crew worked did a great job on the installation and answered all of our questions throughout the process. We've now taken to calling this 'Phase 1' and look forward to working with Herbal Thymes for Phase 2, Phase 3 across the rest of our property."

"The job was done at the price quoted, but no discounts offered. In addition to the sprinklers I also had the rust removal installed that was recommended by them. They did a water analysis only after the installation to tell me that the iron in my well water it wasn’t that high. I wish they did that before they sold me on the rust removal system. I also wish they had asked me where to put the holes in the ground where they had to connect the sprinklers. There was some minor work on the main well pipeline that should have been done to better regulate the water flow in the sprinklers but they didn’t want to do it due to some missing materials on their end. It felt to me like that was a poor excuse for something they could have covered."

"Arrived right on time for estimate meeting, explained did for drainage problem for which he was there, talked about some other projects I had going on, one of which was to remove some large trees. I didn't know they did tree removal so I was excited to get down to talking about price. once we agreed on what I believed to be a very reasonable price for both projects he said they had an opening in their schedule for early the following morning and could have the job done in about 4 hours. Ed and his crew arrived a few minutes early the following morning and had the entire job done in just under 3 hours. The work was terrific the employees were extremely hard workers and the team worked like a colony of ants. nothing was left to question and Ed was terrific during the entire process making sure that everything I wanted done was done the way I wanted it done. I wish I could get this level of professionalism, quality, service from all contractors. what a great crew!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Bridgewater, MI

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.
