We are a small family owned business, with 3 employees. We do not use sub-contractors. We are Licensed to do plumbing in Indiana. License # available upon request. We charge a $50 service call, and are competitive with or will beat other contractors prices. We will waive the $50 service for Angie's List members if we do the repair, if we do not do the job then we can not waive the service call but will reduce it to $25 for members! I promise we will match or beat any competitive quote in writing.

"Terry and Evan did a great job. The installation was done neatly and the disruption to our household was minimal. Both the work crew and the office personnel were nothing but professional. I had some non-typical ways that I wanted a few things done and they worked with me to achieve the best outcome. The equipment they specified is top notch and working great. My delay in writing this review was only because weather required that we wait to have the project finished until they could get on the roof safely."

"The entire process from start to finish was a breeze! Did I mention that I was on a cruise and out of the country! As a surprise for my husband I hired Spencer to install the fan. He had to cut a hole, run the cords, and put in a new switch! We were able to work out all the details before we left and came home to an absolutely beautiful Chandelier Fan! Looks like it should have been there all along! Spencer was so polite and professional the entire time! Even when we weren’t available because of the cruise he was able to call family members who I left numbers for to ask about specifics that I would prefer! I have a few more projects I will definitely be hiring him for! Thank you Spencer!"

"The Smart Home features they installed, such as thermostat and door locks, etc. do not always work. For example, the Honeywell thermostat can no longer be operated from our phones and is difficult to install. Remote door locks are also unpredictable."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Ridgeville, IN

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.
