"Felix and his team did an excellent job. We had them install sod as well as clear and level a side walkway which was also topped with river rock. Also had a camellia tree pruned and shaped. They take pride in their work. Would highly recommend them. "

"Overall I was happy with the work and happy with the cost after getting a few other estimates and designs. The workers were very professional, as clean as you can be with the rain and mud in December, Darrin was accommodating when I wanted to add last minute rocks and the end result is beautiful. A few minor things: - slight communication breakdown and the workers removed all my grass in the backyard where they were supposed to leave a scuplted area. Darrin took responsibility and laid down brand new sod (BONUS!) - To be honest I was very anxious in the beginning (I'm sure Darrin gets that a lot) about the type of plants and the layout being suggested - after all, it's a bit permanent. I did want some changes and didn't feel they were all listened to. ie. I sent a list of plants I liked and he seemed to stick to the plants on his original sketch (same layout, majority of same plants). IN THE END THOUGH - I was happy with the result and glad I let the master at work. - Also, before he planted things on the ground, Darrin let me make sure I was happy with where things would reside. - all in all, I would hire Darrin again. - very responsive to emails, very professional."

"Randy, from Universal Landscape, arrived when he said he would and finished the job a day earlier than planned. Work went like clockwork. Cleaned up nicely after each day and when job was completed. My wife and I were extremely impressed with their work and professionalism. Also, Randy was able to bring cost in below original estimate."

"Jorge came to my house within a few days of my request for an estimate. He suggested a layout and fixtures that were much better than what I had before, and was able to install everything the following weekend. Very pleased with the results."

"They totally cleared a portion of my property of blackberries, dead and volunteer trees & bushes and all stumps then added bark and some plants. It looks beautiful. Front lawn was sodded and back lawn thatched and reseeded. The crew were hard working, and courteous. They meticulously cleaned up all yard debris and left the yard spotless. The only reason I'm giving 4 star is because I want to see how reseeded portion of lawn does. All in all though I was impressed with their work."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Lowell, WA

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.
