"Chris, was very responsive to my request for help in landscaping an island in my front yard. The work was performed in one day and Chris went above and beyond the landscaping plan when he filled in a hole in my front yard and installed sod to level the hole where a pine tree had been removed several years ago. Chris also transplanted some ground cover to give the island a consistant view which was responsive to my request for "curb appeal". The clean up was amazing and again, the work was very professionally done. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to other homeowners."

"Mr. Hightower and his crew did an excellent job grading our back yard after we had a whole section of trees removed. He even came back after the dirt dried to finish smoothing it out, so it would lay right. Super happy with the fair price, hard work, and attention to detail! I would definitely use them again and recommend them :)"

"It went very well. Jorge does estimates, he comes on time, he comes back if things need to be fixed and all the grass grew. Jorge‘s easy to work with. He’s got a great team. He had to totally relandscaped my front yard to plant the grass. And he’s got the machines and everything went smoothly. I definitely would hire him again. In fact, I’ve hired him three times."

"Shayne and team were hired to install sod (after water leak was repaired) in my front yard and to install my flower beds for this season. From the beginning, he was responsive and was very communicative, which helped to manage my expectations (e.g. cost, time involved, process, and end product). To ensure that my sod installation was correct, a repair had to be made at my neighbors. Upon their consent to be served, Shayne worked that into the work plan to ensure my investment would payoff. He and team were polite, professional and cordial throughout the entire installation. It happened to be clean-up day in the community and many came by to get his contact information. Awesome job! I look forward to referring Shayne to others and using him again for similar projects."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Lexington, GA

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.
