"They came out as scheduled and were able to complete the fence in about 3 days. It included setting posts in concrete and constructing the panels on site as well as two gates, one wider gate in line with outside gate for wheelbarrow entrance and the other narrower and on side close to sidewalk. They also installed wood boards under fence so critters including my dog are discouraged from digging under. Gates have nice latches including a wire loop on the inside to pull the latch open when exiting. I was very pleased with the result. They were respectful of the existing plants and raised bed rows taking care not to trample more than necessary."

"Bob was thorough and checked on how things were going throughout the process.
I threw a few changes at him here and there and he rolled with the punches."

"THESE GUYS WERE GREAT! From the first phone call to the estimate to the day of the service, Loren and his guys did a superb job. Loren is very friendly, honest and easy going. He gave a competitive estimate that was below what other arborists had estimated. He got here on time, got the job done and left everything clean and looking great. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with Loren to anyone in need of professional tree service. "

"Our backyard needed a total makeover. We contacted Blessing Landsacapes based on their excellent reviews. We paid them to re-design our backyard landscaping with the goal of adding privacy. The job included replacing the sod, adding over 85 plants, adjusting sprinklers, adding a gravel path and adding lighting. Blessing was ready to begin our job early, but unfortuately we were not due to other work being done. They were very flexible when we had to further delay the start date due to delays caused by hardscape work being done by another business. Once they were able to start, they let us know exactly what to expect and were done when they said they would be. This a first class business; we were happy with them start to finish and would use them again without hesitation."

"Bret was excellent in his promptness to our requests and follow up. During his initial visit, he listened to our needs and ideas and immediately showed us basically what he would do, where and why. We reviewed photos and discussed many options and he put together a simple and complete bid which was updated and presented to us whenever there was a change. He accommodated every request transparently, asking for approval prior. We now have a much larger patio due to his design using some previously unused area in which was installed a gorgeous sitting wall around a custom natural gas fire pit. Additionally, Bret has some excellent landscaping ideas and taste and incorporates just enough lighting to enhance everything. His workmen are highly skilled, very friendly, attentive, disciplined and cleaned up every day. Whenever I asked questions they gave me good answers. We now have a stunning patio more beautiful than we had imagined. Everything was done well. You won't be disappointed if you hire them."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Brightwood, OR

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.
