Sod installers in Mendham
Gino Panaro is DIY Network's King of Dirt. He's definitely not what you'd expect from one of America's premier landscape contractors. He's a loud, bull-in-a-china-shop kind of guy who happens to create incredible beauty. For his landscape designs, Gino doesn't use a computer or fake graphic technology. Instead, he relies on his imagination, his hands and the help of his son Lance, who works with him in a family landscape business to create some of the most beautiful, high-end landscapes and hardscapes you'll ever see.
"Gene and Lance were great. It was easy to schedule and set up an estimate. Gene came out, did measurements, we talked about the issues I've had with the lawn in the past and future maintenance. He is very thorough and not one of those pushy salesmen types, which I appreciate. He gave me a very fair and realistic estimate and we decided to proceed with the project, which was also easy to schedule within the next 2 weeks. On "grass day", he showed up at the scheduled time with his crew and they immediately got to work. Throughout the day, his son Lance came with my topsoil and sod delivery, started watering the first half that was put down while his guys worked on finishing the yard, and gave me more tips on watering and keeping up the lawn maintenance. Overall, I had been struggling with my backyard having nothing but crab grass and bald spots, and they truly transformed it (you can see my Before & After pictures for proof), and my experience with Panaro was great!"

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.”
