"Kyle Hodges and his team did a great job removing old landscaping and preparing the space for new planting. They also repaired our brick front steps and porch, and installed new path lights to replace old, failing lighting. Kyle is easy to communicate with, and offered a lot of good ideas. We liked his design for new landscaping, and we look forward to moving ahead with the planting in the spring."

"I was absolutely thrilled with Ridley's services! From the moment they reached out, their team was incredibly professional, polite, responsive, and fast. I was especially impressed with their innovative use of digital design, which really helped bring my vision to life. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations in every way. Not only did they complete the project quickly, but the craftsmanship was top-notch. I used to dread how our flowerbeds looked, but now they’ve become my favorite part of the house! Ridley’s team provided expert advice on the plants they installed and even shared useful tips on how to care for them. They went above and beyond—remulching around our tree, filling in yard holes, and even spreading grass seed over bare patches. I’m beyond satisfied with the results and will absolutely be using their services again. I’ll be recommending Ridley’s to all my friends and family without a doubt!"

"I had some extremely over grown areas that was almost impossible to maintain. So I reached out to J4 and within half a day Jeremy cleared out .25 of acre of brush, shrubs and small trees and now I have less maintenance and yard to enjoy. Thank you J4 and you always be our first call!!"

"He was wonderful, did what I asked but made great suggestions. He told me when certain positions for grab bars couldn't be safely installed without more work. He worked all day."

"Beautifully! Sal wrote a very detailed proposal, defining how his work would enhance the walkways, including reducing the mortar joints' width and realigning the concrete base so as to facilitate water's draining rather than standing on the walk. Over 12 days, he, two of his sons, and a very experienced crew worked steadily to make the proposal reality. I couldn't be more pleased."

"I highly recommend this business since they did such a fantastic job installing our patio pavers. They used a laser to ensure that the patio was perfectly level and also ensured it drained properly when it rained. They also recommended a quality paver and went the extra mile to make sure that we were happy with our patio. They are definitely professionals at what they do and are highly skilled. In addition, they were always professional and friendly and worked very hard. We would definitely hire them again!"

"This work took place eleven months ago, but that gives us the ability to say that everything Kurt’s team planted looks great and is growing nicely, except one bush that is struggling, which Kurt agreed to replace without hesitation. We have been in our house for 22 years, and finally got around to replacing the crummy landscaping and walkway the developer put in. Distinct Landscapes installed a paver walkway, and a complete set of bushes, flowers and a crape myrtle tree. The work was done very well and within budget, and the crew distinguished itself by how well they cleaned up the site. The spacing between plantings to allow for future growth seems perfect. Most of all we like Kurt. He is low-key and friendly, offers solid, knowledgeable opinions when asked, and never applies any sort of sales pressure. We would use Distinct Landscapes again, and recommend them without hesitation."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Randallstown, MD

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.
