"Considering that I have come from a long line of designers, painters and those whose use plenty of color, I consider Sissi Construction to have done an excellent job. As stated before, Lewis is reliable, dependable, precise in his workmanship, very cost effective and clean. He left me with a pristine kitchen and dining room. I continue to recommend Sissi Construction and I would use him again."

"In 2013 I was out of town on a trip. My wife called in a panic because water was coming in through a crack in the basement wall. We had lived in the house for 20 years with no issues. Recently we had new sidewalks poured which disrupted the water flow from the house. This caused water to seep back into the foundation. The Leaky Cellar came the next day and provided a fair estimate and repaired. When I returned home I was very pleased with the work, timeliness, and price they charged. A less reputable company could have taken advantage of the situation. Recently we had the annoying water seepage in our stone foundation. The Leaky Cellar proposed various options to address the situation. They recently installed interior drains. The men were very professional and answered all my questions. For a messy job, they left the basement in good shape. I was very pleased with the work, price, and professionalism. I would recommend them to a friend."

"Work was done to my expectations & beyond. Ben & Jesse helped me decide how to best approach the repairs & that made my $$$ go as far as possible. Work started on time and the job was finished on time. The quality of the workmanship was excellent---from demo to cleanup everyday to new drywall/mudding to painting and finish carpentry. I had new floors installed. To be honest, there was a problem with how the upstairs bathroom floor was installed. I was not happy and after they looked at the job, they agreed with me. New materials were ordered and installed perfectly within several weeks. I think that is what impresses me about this company. So many times contractors blow off an older woman. I've been treated so poorly by other companies. Not this company. When there was a problem with that flooring, they wanted to make things right and have me be satisfied. They never talked down to me or made me feel like my requests were outlandish. I couldn't be happier."

"I was very satisfied in the end with the work that was done on our property. The patio looks absolutely fantastic. All the stones are well place and the graceful rounding of its form makes it a highlight of the backyard. When talking to other contractors for this job, any sort of shaping of the patio was going to cost us a pretty penny. Green Lawn came in $1000 under our next best offer and that next best offer was 60 sqft smaller, without any shaping of the patio and without paver steps!
The initial construction was fast. The patio area was prepped over several days and the stone laid down within the first 8 construction days. However, it was then a long haul for the patio and drainage to be completed. After the first 8 days, it did rain several times over a week long period, so Green Lawn not constructing was understandable, but it is the additional several weeks we waited for final completion after the rain that was really a pain. I am not certain why they were not finishing the job, but it took us contacting them a few times to get the work fully completed. Therefore the project took around a month rather than the original plan of less than two weeks.
The drainage installation process was done well and we were able to keep the grass alive in the areas we properly watered. Any dead grass was really our fault for not being on top of the watering properly, and it has all now started to fill back in, come back from the dead now that it has rained. Green Lawn also installed sod everywhere they had torn up the lawn around the patio and where their carrier vehicle had driven to deliver stone. There was no direct charge for this sod.
The drainage seems to have been installed properly, however, the grade of our lawn is so flat that it was basically impossible to get the lines to fully empty of water. We have been in touch with Green Lawn and should there be issues they will come out to rethink the drainage lines.
Communication was generally good. E-mails were responded to promptly, hardly ever needed to call to get questions answered in a timely manner.
Overall, despite the much longer than expected construction time, I still give Green Lawn an A. The end result was quite fantastic and the price probably unbeatable.

FAQs for sod installation projects in Linwood, KS

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.
