"Ricky was one of the best contractors that I have had the pleasure of hiring. It was refreshing to hire someone for a job that was transparent in pricing, communicated, and showed pride in his work. I had Ricky install an irrigation system, custom landscaping stone steps, and sod on the whole lot. The whole project took a week and a half. My family and I are extremely happy with the experience and results. If I ever have another outdoor project Ricky will be the first guy I call."

"I initially purchased a Rick of Firewood and was delivered and stacked for $65. I asked for an estimate of the removal of a maple tree in the front yard and an Oak tree in the back yard. The estimate that I received for the tree in the front yard was $400 which was $700 less than the estimate that I received from another company. The received estimates from $2500 to $1700 for the Oak tree which was in a very difficult area where the crane and trucks could not be used so it all had to be hauled out by hand. The oak tree was split and dying and leaning towards the house. I told Chuck that I had been putting it off because I couldn't afford to pay $1700 to have it removed. He told me that it was a real danger and saw the trampoline in the back yard and said that he would hate for something to happen to the kids if it were to come down. He charged me $600 to remove the large oak tree and did excellent work as promised. He also brought some Cherry and Hickory wood for me because he noticed that I had a smoker when he delivered the firewood the day before. I can't say enough about his service, professionalism, and charging what I could afford because he was worried about my kids safety. I have referred him to several neighbors and family and all gave glowing reviews. He also followed up the next day to thank me for the business.

"I used this service all last season and am beginning my second year this Spring.  Really good work.  Responsive.  Has added landscaping work at times like trimming my bushes or weeding my front plantings.  Work is done well and quickly.  When mistakes are made they are minor but quickly corrected.  [Example: during drought the riding mowers were digging a dirt ring around certain trees.  This was corrected and didn't happen again.]
I appreciate the commitment to satisfy and get the work right.  A slight premium compared to some of the local one man services, but for the $10 per mowing it's done in 20 minutes, and the crew is large enough to come and do some special requests for a reasonable price.
I'd highly recommend this service and am glad I found them.  Some hesitation posting this for fear they may get busier, but they deserve success so there you go!

FAQs for sod installation projects in Henryville, IN

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.
