"The pathway lights look terrific and function very easily with an automatic timer. Jeff and his team were very efficient installing the lights. They are currently working on installing a new patio and they are working diligently to ensure the prep for the patio is done correctly. We are very pleased with their professionalism and eye for detail. They are a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to call Jeff for any of our landscape needs."

"Derrick quickly returned my call & they came within a few days. When I told them that I wanted the barren area replanted with grass, he didn't recommend sod because we have two puppies and thought grass seed would have been a better longer term option for us. He and his crew were friendly, professional, & hard working. They cleaned up after themselves as well."

"I had originally talked with Ron Diersing about an estimate for a driveway replacement in the fall of 2010.  He quoted a price that I thought was fair and set a date for the work to be done.  For a number of reasons, I decided to postpone the project until spring 2011, but still wanted to use Stamp and Concrete Masters to do the job.  I originally was only going to have the driveway replaced, but I added the project of having a wheelchair ramp removed, concrete poured where the ramp had been to make a small patio, and steps installed to run from the deck to the new patio area.  Ron was very understanding about everything, gave me a very fair estimate for the additional work, and we set the date to begin work on 4/19/11.  Because rain was expected on 4/19 and on 4/20, Ron called early on 4/19 and indicated that he thought he and his crew should delay the removal of my old driveway and ramp, plus concrete framing and other preparatory work to 4/20, and pour the new concrete driveway on 4/21 (4/21/11 was the only non-rainy day the whole week!).   The driveway was completed by 1:30 PM on 4/21.  Ron returned that evening to do some additional work on the driveway.  On 4/22/11, Ron installed steps from the deck to the new patio area and ran new wiring as needed to get the pet electronic fence working.  Ron recommends sealing the driveway at least 30 days after installation, but prior to winter, which I will be asking him to do in the near future.  "

"I would highly recommend Micah. He made an appointment for the next day after I contacted him, was punctual and very professional. I found his prices to be very reasonable. And I am extremely happy with the quality of the work. Our patios and walkway look wonderful as do the retaining walls and privacy fence. The excavation was quick and efficient, as was the removal and construction. There were a few problems that arose which were addressed and resolved .

FAQs for sod installation projects in Edison, OH

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.
