"I am very happy with Carlos and his crew. They replaced 14 shrubs for me, and spread 20 yards of topsoil in back. They are very professional, and work well together. I am very pleased with the results. Carlos consulted with me on several points to make sure it was what I wanted. They cleaned up nicely at the end. Always a pleasant experience. I would highly recommend them."

Gino Panaro is DIY Network's King of Dirt. He's definitely not what you'd expect from one of America's premier landscape contractors. He's a loud, bull-in-a-china-shop kind of guy who happens to create incredible beauty. For his landscape designs, Gino doesn't use a computer or fake graphic technology. Instead, he relies on his imagination, his hands and the help of his son Lance, who works with him in a family landscape business to create some of the most beautiful, high-end landscapes and hardscapes you'll ever see.

"They did a great job. Timely and professional. "

"Kingdom responded on time with an accurate quote. When Nick arrived, 10 minutes early We proceeded to discuss what my plan was. This is where the great service began. I started out thinking I needed to replace fans in two bedrooms with new switches. I provided all the materials. Nick informed me I could return the wall switches I bought as the fans came with remotes and we could just use a regular switch because the switches I bought we not the correct type. First bedroom fan fixed. On to second bedroom. Nick informed me I couldn’t use an LED bulb in the fan as the fan wasn’t designed for LED. Problem solved. My wife reminded me we had another fan issue in another room. Nick checked the wall switch, changed dip switches and we agreed we would replace this fan with the now extra fan. On to outdoor lighting, I was mentally prepared to replace our outdoor light fixtures, nick tested each socket on our fixtures and identified I had a bad batch of bulbs. Just replace the bulbs and we will be good. At this point I am beyond pleased and start discussing the next few things on my longer term plans, including expanding the number of Ring products I have. One thing leads to another and Nick is off to Home Depot to get a couple Ring devices and the appropriate LED bulbs for our outdoor fixtures. A few hours later we have a new ring video doorbell pro and a ring floodlight installed and connected in my ring app. All new led light bulbs and detailed discussions about my next project. Attitude and quality of work were exceptional and I will be doing more work with kingdom in the future. I did not underpay, I did not overpay. I received great value for the work performed."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Lakewood, NJ

Seeding is less expensive up front compared to sod installation. However, sod provides an instant lawn with minimal maintenance, while seeded lawns require extended care and can take up to two years to fully establish.

“To determine how much sod you need, first calculate your yard’s total area by sketching your layout and multiplying each section’s length by its width. Standard sod pieces measure 2 feet by 1½ feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. Divide your total square footage by this pallet coverage figure and consult your sod provider for precise estimates to ensure you purchase the correct amount.”

“New sod develops a strong root system within 10 to 14 days, so it is not ready for heavy use until this period is complete. Do not walk on or disturb the sod during this critical phase, as premature activity delays healthy rooting. Allow the grass to settle firmly to secure long-term lawn durability.”

“You can begin limited, careful use of your lawn two weeks after installation to allow initial rooting. However, refrain from heavy traffic or frequent mowing until six weeks have passed and the roots have fully anchored the sod. Consistent watering during this period is essential to promote robust development and long-term stability.”

“After installation, monitor your sod closely for balanced color and uniform moisture. Watch for brown patches or uneven growth, as these indicate dehydration or nutrient deficiencies. Maintaining a steady watering schedule and ensuring the sod remains undisturbed during its early stages are essential steps to guarantee robust root development and a healthy, attractive lawn.”

“The best time to install sod is during spring or fall. These seasons offer optimal temperatures and moisture levels that ensure rapid rooting and strong establishment. Avoid installing sod in winter when the ground is frozen or in summer when extreme heat can dehydrate the grass, as proper conditions are critical for a durable lawn.”
