"I needed a smooth, level work surface in my garage, which had a very uneven and bumpy floor made of old brick.  Rocky used a masonry saw to cut a 6X9 foot section out of the brick, leaving clean edges.  He chiseled out, collected and hauled off the old brick, and dug out enough of the dirt that had been beneath the brick to allow for the desired depth of cement (about 4 inches).  He then installed steel reinforcing rods, mixed the cement in a small portable mixer, and poured/surfaced the pad.  

This was a tricky task because the unevenness of the original floor did not allow him to simply use the sides of the hole he had cut as forms for the pad, nor was it possible to use form boards.  In some spots, the level pad was slightly beneath the height of the old brick surface, and at other spots it was above the old brick surface.  Rocky did a very nice job of splitting the difference between the high and low areas of the original floor to minimize the difference in both directions while keeping the finished pad surface level.  All the pad edges were beveled to achieve a nice appearance and to avoid corners that could increase the risk of tripping or interfere with rolling things onto the pad.

Rocky was very personable, knowledgeable and communicated well about the design and implementation of this project.  He charged what I feel was a reasonable price for the job and demonstrated a strong investment in my satisfaction, along with an admirable work ethic and positive attitude.  I would gladly use this provider again for future projects.

"Plan-It Green recently helped us with adding some landscaping updates and a hardscape porch and steps. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and have received numerous complements from neighbors. We have a semicircular driveway with an island in the front that contains a huge electrical box and other utility poles which are quite unattractive. The area was just very blah and we had lost a tree and some plants from our winter cold front. Jordan and his crew, Terry and Alex, installed a stacked stone raised bed within the island giving it 2 levels, planted a weeping cherry and other plantings, bushes to help hide utility boxes, and pea gravel in rest of island. They also added plantings to our other beds, some more boulders, mulch and a small waterfall. It all turned out beautifully! Jordan kept us informed and updated all along the way and Terry and Alex did beautiful and professional work. Would definitely recommend."

"They took up, and removed, old carpet; put down new wood flooring (solid oak and pre-engineered); sanded and refinished wood floors and counter tops; painted walls, shelves and ceilings; installed baseboards; resurfaced a shower stall; repaired roof leaks; cleaned gutters; washed windows; built new wooden stairs; and performed various other tasks that I requested be done. They already had experience with most of the accomplishments; the others they figured out how to do: very versatile and resourceful. I plan to use their services in the near future to paint outside the house and to install new window screens."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Mascot, TN

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.
