I highly recommend Precision Landscapes for being upfront and honest. It's a shame that I didn't find them sooner. Here's to a nice green lawn..Thank you. Bronwyn Johnson"

"Hired this business to do a complete overhaul on our backyard. We had them install a sprinkler system, sod, boarders, gravel, rock, a retaining wall, privacy tress, flowers, shrubby, level everything out, and even had them fix a gate and one side of our fence. They turned a hideous dirt backyard into a gorgeous paradise. The owner is a super hard worker and won't stop until the job is done. Highly recommend."

"Jeb Showed up on time.  He was friendly, professional and very clear about what needed to be done. He brought in a small backhoe that could move around the edge of the pond and was exceedingly careful of trees and stepping stones.  His helper called in sick so it took him two days but he never quibbled about price, even though the job and the muck turned out to be much more than he had bargained for.  I loaned him a couple of tools.  He was careful to clean the worksite each day, clean the tools, put everything where I asked him to and there were piles of muck.  I offered an extra hundred to find the drain hole.  That took him two days.  He never gave up, no matter how deep or messy the muck, never swore that I heard, even when his pump let loose and showered him with muck, he just kept on going.  His helper called in sick the next day also so he did this huge job alone.  At the end I asked him if he was finished and he said not until I checked everything and I told him he was finished.  I would highly recommend this man for any landscaping job.  He said he also builds retaining walls, new ponds, entire landscapes, etc.  I see his business has a Facebook page too.  I have another job for him in the near future.

"We have used Evergreen Landscape Maintenance for 17 years.  They have done an excellent job of keeping our yard looking nice for all that time.  I feel we have the nicest looking yard on the block.  The owner is very knowledgeable about all aspects of yard care.  We appreciate so much that he is always available for needed repairs or problems that spring up suddenly.  They have even planted trees for us.
I can't really make a judgement about their monthly bill because I don't know what other yard service businesses charge.  Evergreen adds an extra fee for repairs, spraying, etc., but we feel those charges are very reasonable.  Their billing procedures, however, are often quite inconsistent.  We're never quite sure when---or if---the bill will arrive.
The work crew is speedy and efficient.  They watch for any problems that need to be addressed.  Sometimes after there has been some bad weather (or maybe a holiday) they don't show up for their weekly service, but that is to be expected.  I think communication could be a little better at times.  We're never quite sure when someone will show up for needed repairs, etc.  It is always handled in a reasonable amount of time, though.  The owner has been known to even show up at night after a long workday to take care of the problem.
All in all, we are very pleased with the service provided to us by Evergreen Landscape Maintenance.  We would recommend them to anyone looking for a good landscape maintenance provider.

FAQs for sod installation projects in Igo, CA

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.
