"Only got one month into services when Anthony Palmieri, the owner, left me a voicemail confirming services, then forgot to hang up the phone and proceeded to call me “f***king nuts” not once, but twice, and called his colleague Claudia over to continue to disparage me. My crime? Asking them to complete contracted services after noticing they hadn’t completed them during the first service. I see Anthony often responds to negative reviews and gaslights the reviewer - let’s see him do that when I have his bad behavior on voicemail. Anthony is deeply unprofessional, and his staff is equally rude. Hire any landscaper but this one. 0/10, would never recommend."

F. Franciamore Landscaping, is a locally owned and operated, full service landscaping company, with more than 20 years of experience. We do all aspects of landscaping from masonry and brick work, or installing trees, plants, and sod. We are also experienced in irrigation, both installs and repairs. Call us today and let us put our experience to work for you!

"We redid our entire lawn and garden, removing many trees and shrubs, pruning those that remained, soil preparation, laying sod and preparing beds for spring planting. Frank (the owner) came himself to give me initial the estimate, had many spot-on suggestions and ideas about how to proceed. He supervised the work, was on site most of the time, and was always easy to reach by phone or text. We had good fortune weather-wise and everything went as planned and on schedule. Budget matched the estimate except for a few additional items I requested after the work began. The men took care to remove large trees and shrubs without damaging adjacent paved areas and while protecting the ones that we did not want removed. Since the work was completed Frank has come back a couple of times to water and make sure the sod is rooting properly. We plan to hire Franciamore again in the spring to put in new plantings."

We will be calling them back to do some plantings next year. Kenny was very responsive, helped flesh out our vision, and when something wasnt to his standards he came back with ideas to revamp it and work within our budget. A great experience overall.

FAQs for sod installation projects in Pelham, NY

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.
