"Jerrod and Chance were fantastic! From our very first meeting they went above and beyond in explaining and even figuring out the complicated land survey I had. They didn't mind taking the time to fully explain concepts and processes I didn't understand. From just speaking with them you can tell they have a ton of experience and they care about the work they do. Rockin H&M took my vision for my fence and executed the project better than I could ever imagine! I even noticed some of my neighbors coming up to talk to them, as well as the land developers that are working on a new housing community across from my home coming over to speak with them. These guys were fast and efficient, without compromising quality. Their communication throughout the entire process was superb! I got 7 quotes for my fence and Rockin H&M landed somewhere in the middle. I decided to go with them because I didn't want to jeopardize quality for a lower price. Of all the companies I came across, Rockin H&M was the most knowledgeable, respectful, and caring. I am so grateful to have found them on Angi! I am beyond pleased with my new fence and my dogs absolutely love it!"

"

The concrete driveway job went pretty smooth other than weather restrictions.  Guys were very professional and explained the process to me. 

My yard had a lot of hard clay so tractor work was used to break up the yard.  We then installed the sprinkler system and laid down sod.

Everything was completed in stages and Lee, the owner was very accommodating.

"When I first called for an estimate, Doug quickly responded and came to my house.  He told me he would get to it "this week".  He and his crew finally showed up almost 2 weeks later - with no communication in the interim.  The crew used a bucket truck as we had discussed - accessing the 3 trees from my neighbors yard as we had agreed.  I began to get a little concerned when I realized they were not using plywood to protect at least where the truck stabilizers were set (another service I've used uses plywood extensively to guard against yard damage; of course, they charge more).  I also was somewhat concerned when they began dropping large branches that often hit my shrubbery.  The shrubs came out reasonably intact, but the holes in the ground from the stabilizers and truck tires will have to be repaired (by me).  They also dropped a large limb on my birdhouse - breaking its back mounting board in half (no offer to fix, etc.).  They sliced through a water hose with the chain saw.  Then when they moved the truck to my driveway to get the large limb, they crushed the drainage inlet at the street, which will require the city to completely replace it.  If they had backed in the way the driveway curves to the street, there would not have been any problem getting to the limb.  Although I saw them driving off the inlet on their first failed attempt to back in the wrong way, I didn't see the damage until they had left.  But I'm sure it was obvious to the guy guiding the truck backwards.  They never mentioned what they had done to me.  All in all, it certainly wasn't worth the savings using this service.  I'll go back to the careful guys next time."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Climax, GA

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.
