"Javier arrived promptly. My husband showed him the problem with our backyard low voltage landscape lighting. Javier conducted an inspection, and found that the electrical outlet that the lights were plugged into was no longer functional. He plugged the cord into another outlet, and everything now functions just fine! Thank you Javier and M&J Prime Builders!"

"I wanted to transform my backyard and the first step in doing so was to install sod. I had contacted one other landscaper prior to this and it took him 2 weeks to reschedule a consultation and even longer to receive a quote. This did not give me much confidence that the job would be completed relatively soon. That's when I turned to Google and found Angi's list. Vinny responded within less than one hour. I met with him the next day. He provided a quote at the end of our consultation and began prepping the area within one week. He re-framed the area, removed the weeds, added top soil, installed sod, and trimmed the lemon tree all within one week of meeting him. I highly recommend Vinny for all of your landscaping needs. "

"I had Majid replace my fence and build a pergola last year. Since then, some of the pressure treated wood 4x4s have begun to split and the concrete that was used to support the 4x4s was starting to crumble. He also had the fence built and attached to the building which is not supposed to happen! When I had the siding replaced and painted, we had to REBUILD the fence portions that were ATTACHED to the house/garage, which was a huge pain. Both of these issues indicated that the products he used and the techniques he used are not great quality. The contractor I hired to do the siding/painting expressed concern regarding the structural integrity of the pergola - NO bracing brackets had been installed, and at least one of the 8x8 redwood posts was installed already warped. When I reached out to Majid regarding my concerns, he agreed to come out and look. When he came, he started giving excuses as to why all these things were happening. Such as, I didn't give a design with the pergola so ho"

"I have a small backyard. David called me on Sunday, came gave me and estimate on Monday, and installed on Tuesday. They were friendly and efficient. They arrived about 8:30 in the morning, and were finished by noon. It went from a weedy, muddy space. And when they left, I had a beautiful yard that I want to spend time in."

"These guys were awesome from start to finish. Super hard workers they really took their time to make sure everything came out perfect. What I appreciated most was how easy they were to talk to. They kept me in the loop the whole way and made sure I was happy with every step before moving forward. The yard looks amazing now, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. Definitely recommend Artificial Grass Pros if you want a clean job done right by a team that actually cares."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Concord, CA

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.
