"Mike did a great job in a timely manner. I am very pleased with my beautiful Zoysia Zeon sod around my pool. The installation was efficiently done that only a true professional could have achieved. I would recommend Mike and his company not only because of how good he is, but how personable he is. I think of him as a friend who cares about his customers and his staff. He is top notch!"

"The initial contact and estimate were great. We had some communication issues- we were given a date for install, but when we called that morning, no one knew what was going on. However, we finally talked to Billy,the owner, and were able to work out all details. The project was started 2 days later, there was an issue with sod, but that was handled well and communicated. The project was completed in a timely matter and my yard looks great. I would definitely recommend Appalachian Lanndscape!"

"It went great. Floyd's crew disassembled the tree we wanted removed without harming any of the other trees around it. They sectioned it and took it away. They also ground a dozen stumps from trees I had previous felled. All in all, a great c

"Doug and his crew did an AMAZING job! They arrived on time, worked all day (even through several rain showers) and exceeded our expectations! When the job was complete, they hauled away all of the old materials and cleaned up around the work area. We will definitely be utilizing Doug and his crew for more jobs!"

"I recently had Precision Landscape install a beautiful paver patio and refresh the surrounding areas with new mulch, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism, attention to detail, and craftsmanship really stood out. The patio came out perfectly level, with clean lines and a design that fits my space perfectly. The mulch installation was equally impressive—neatly laid, evenly spread, and it instantly made my yard look fresh and well-kept."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Felton, 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.
