"Make sure you get your invoices. I didnt get my invoices on the job and when I asked the subcontractor to add 4 ft more to the end of house and the contractor Rebecca T. was the subcontractor. I was quoted $350.00. So I get the cash out of the bank the next day. Then Rebecca comes back to me saying I owe another $450.00 I told her you both didnt say that. Why are you doing this to me. Then she said its the labor cost . I gave her another $375.00 The subcontractor that Rebecca T. hired did not complete the job. So I asked Rebecca what are you going to do. So Her and her family had to clean up the mess around the concrete and the house. But I saw a crack in the foundation. I asked her again this needs to be fixed. At the time she could not find the subcontractor who did the work. All I know his name was Kenny. When she got a hold of him about 2 1/2 weeks later. She said you can use him and pay. I told her the job was paid in full and you needed to fix the problem. I told her I didnt hire him you did. So then Rebecca asked me do you want to use him to finish the job. I told her no. She then said she will bring Allen to finish the job.. He finish most of it , but not correcting the crack in the concrete. I asked her when would Allen finish the job. She proceed to say its on me to pay to get the job finished. And try to say things on my text messages that wasnt true. So I told her its your fault and you didnt follow through. Im so upset with this person.She wont return my calls or text now. I was told the job was $5840.00 Her brother name is Keith T., All of the sudden his number doesnt appear in my text she gave me. I paid over 4500.00 And the job is not completed. I will show you the crack made. I also have the job the way Kenny left it. And he never came back. That was the subconcractor she hired. If you have any questions please call me on 317xxxxxxx[redacted] Thank you"

"Copper Canyon did a great job installing the drainage pipe from an area of our back yard that was constantly soggy, to the lake about 150 ft away. They completed the work in a day, left the area neat, and solved our drainage problem. I would not hesitate to use them again for landscaping services."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Lebanon, 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.
