He and the team have been great, If you need a professional, reliable and frankly "nice" landscaping firm, hire them!"

"They did a great job, consistent with their estimate, and installed a temporary irrigation system to insure it all survived our dry summer at an extra (and worthwhile) cost. They used a Bobcat that required them to remove and put back some plants, and they protected the grass with plywood sheets."

"I had a huge tree fall from the last storm, and Evers came right away to remove it from my yard. Great job. He also recommended I take down 2 other trees, which I had him do, great job. He offered to do cleanup, while he was there, which they did. I was disappointed with the cleanup, and I am having to have my landscaping company come and complete the cleanup (maybe I am spoiled but they do an excellent job, including trimming shrubs. They are very meticulous) . For tree removal tho, Evers was great."

"It went very well. The small wall was not initially part of the plans, but they were very quick at getting us an estimate. With the addition of the wall, it cost more than we had expected, but the slope of the yard made the wall necessary to have a level patio, so the additional cost was more than worth it. The workers were very meticulous and did a terrific job. I would recommend John's to a friend or neighbor."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Hathorne, MA

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.
