"Sod and flowerbed work was good. As a contractor myself, I give more than the benefit of the doubt to anyone I do business with. I had Lawn Boys add some pavers/walkway work to our existing layout sine it was part of their scope of work. This part of the work was so far below standard: incredibly unleveled, partly unfinished, I could go on. The owner did take the time to discuss the issue but in the end resolved that this was as good as he could do. I would have paid much more from the beginning to have it done right, rather than been offered a deal. Again the sod and flower bed still looks great and workers were very nice, I would suggest sticking to this scope of work from this contractor."

"Started in early August and was completed in two weeks. Since the yard is sliced up to put in all of the pipes, the resulting mess was handled very well. There were no depressions left where the pipes were buried. Excess dirt was hauled away. Dan also installed three outlets on the house for use outside. Note: one of the reasons for a sprinkler system was to have separate water metering. Our sewer charges are based on water useage and are quite high. It will take twenty years to recover the cost, but now I have the convience of a sprinkler system and no longer have the manual watering hassle (of a corner lot). Now I can wash the car, water flowers, fill a pool without the sewer charges.
Nine months later lightening blew out the controller, Dan came back twice with a replacement and reinstalled it at no charge. He also checked the alignment on all the sprinkler heads for proper coverage.
A neighbor put in a sprinkler system  a month before mine and I had his company quote my lot. The price was about $3,000 more than my cost. I am well satisfied with the cost and the service I received.

FAQs for sod installation projects in Ocean Springs, MS

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.
