Customers say: Super punctual

"Roberto and his team worked extremely hard in removing about 2-3 inches of clay/Stoney dirt and putting down about 2 inches of very good black dirt. They first had to remove about 20 plants that were in the garden which they were careful in doing. When they replanted these plants plus about 20 more, they used black dirt to fill the hole around the plant roots. They also replaced a dying evergreen and again surrounded the root with a whole wheel barrow of black dirt. They put a good 4 inches of mulch all around the garden. They did not use heavy equipment so no damage was done to the sod. They cleaned up everything very well. Roberto is very professional and works very hard. I will hire him again and have him doing our seasonal maintenance."

"I highly recommend Marvin's Brick Pavers and here's why - Craftsmenship, value, and trustworthiness. My walkway sunk and was nearly a foot below the first step up to the front porch. A friend recommended Marvin's Brick Pavers because they built a beautiful backyard patio that I would compliment every time I visited their home. While I did get two other estimates, not only did the other providers pitch a lot of additional work I could neither afford, nor thought needed to be done, they couldn't meet to provide an estimate in a timely manner, did not guarantee their work, and their price points were much higher than Marvin's Brick Pavers. From cost estimate through project completion, Marvin's Brick Pavers were responsive, efficient, knowledgeable, and competitively priced. More than that, they are true craftsmen! They didn't just bring my walkway up to code, their work enhanced my house and property value, and they guarantee their work for five years! Most important, it was an effort for my elderly father to get up that first porch step for way too long, and I cried happy tears at the smile on his face when he effortlessly made the climb thanks to Marvin's awesome work. I never thought I could love a paved walkway, but I think I do!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Delafield, WI

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.
