We take great pride in our experience, expertise, quality, and customer service that we provide to meet the consumer's needs. It is our mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction, from the start to the completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"I hired First Generation Free, LLC (Brittany and King) for a full home remodel, and they exceeded every expectation. After years of putting it off due to budget concerns and horror stories, I finally found a team that is creative, trustworthy, and reliable. I’m not very creative, but Brittany took my ideas and turned them into beautiful, personalized designs—and King brought them to life with incredible craftsmanship and high-quality materials. If you're looking for cookie-cutter, this isn’t the team for you—but if you want custom work that reflects your style and uses every inch of your home, look no further. They worked within my budget and schedule, which made remodeling while living in the home manageable. Every detail was thoughtful and intentional. Brittany’s eye for design paired with King’s ability to build it all by hand is unmatched. They truly made my dream a reality. "

"Awful Experience. He stole over $3000 from my elderly parents. My father was losing mobility and needed to have a Ramp. My mother was quoted a price, asked for half up front and signed a contract that said the work would be done within a week. This did not happen. The workers barley showed up when scheduled and gave no noticed. My mom had to call constantly to find out what was going on with very little communication back. Days would go by without hearing from Marcus or anyone else. Unfortunately after about 2 weeks with nothing completed, my dad passed away. My mother asked for her deposit back minus the wood purchase and what she felt was enough to pay for the barley 2 days of works that was done. Marcus simply refused and said he would do other work for her instead. When she agreed for him to come do work on her walkway, he agreed and said he would. Over a month later nothing was done and will not answer any calls. He stole about $3000 from my mom. Nightmare! Run!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Mcdonough, 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.
