"Rodrigo and his team were great. I was able to get them in quickly and they spent a long day working on the project. It was mid-October and we decided on seed instead of sod. The grass was slow growing but it did come in, to a point. Rodrigo checked it out and said he would be back to go over it again in the spring. I believe he’ll be good on follow up. I held back one star because I’m not certain the garden bed was cultivated deeply enough. I will know better in the spring and may very well add a fifth star. I liked working with this company, found them to be reasonably priced, and I would recommend them."

"Emmanuel and his crew cleared the vegitation (very hardy creeping Charlie mostly), leveled the ground, graded away from the house and garage, installed a gravel border, and laid sod. The end result looks amazing!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Roberto and his team worked extremely hard in removing about 2-3 inches of clay/Stoney dirt and putting down about 2 inches of very good black dirt. They first had to remove about 20 plants that were in the garden which they were careful in doing. When they replanted these plants plus about 20 more, they used black dirt to fill the hole around the plant roots. They also replaced a dying evergreen and again surrounded the root with a whole wheel barrow of black dirt. They put a good 4 inches of mulch all around the garden. They did not use heavy equipment so no damage was done to the sod. They cleaned up everything very well. Roberto is very professional and works very hard. I will hire him again and have him doing our seasonal maintenance."

"I would highly recommend JRH Landscaping. Jose came out promptly for a free consultation and we decided the best course of action was to put in new sod in our small backyard. The price was great! Jose and one of his crew members arrived promptly on the day of the work and did a great job. They also cleaned everything up so you couldn't even tell work had been done there. Now I have a beautiful new lawn in my backyard!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Muskego, WI

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.
