Our team provides exceptional customer service and creates breathtaking designs that exceed our client’s expectations. At BLOOM HOUSE NY, we believe that a well-designed space can transform your environment and elevate your mood.

"I recently hired Bloom House for a complete redesign of my backyard and patio area in Brooklyn, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional, creative, and highly skilled. The initial consultation with Madiha Baig was impressive. She took the time to understand my vision, offering valuable suggestions that enhanced my original ideas. Her knowledge of plants, materials, and design trends was evident and really helped in shaping the final plan. Throughout the project, the team was punctual, courteous, and kept the workspace tidy. Communication was seamless, and I was always updated on the progress. The quality of their work is outstanding. They transformed my dull, lifeless backyard into a beautiful, vibrant space that I now love to spend time in. The new patio is stunning, with intricate stonework and comfortable, stylish furniture that perfectly complements the landscaping. I also appreciated their attention to detail. Madiha chose plants that are both beautiful and low-maintenance. The end result is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and dog friendly. Overall, Bloom House exceeded my expectations in every way. Their expertise and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly commendable. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space into a personal oasis. Thank you, Bloom House, and especially Madiha Baig, for making my backyard dreams come true!"

Sod installations FAQs

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.”
