"Alan and his crew did a fabulous job - they showed up on time and got right to work. They installed a high-quality sod in my backyard and mulched all the beds - I was preparing to sell my home and they made it a lot easier by taking care of the exterior projects. The new lawn looks beautiful!"

"We recently worked with Zian and Keegan from Superior Scapes to transform our backyard, and I can confidently say they exceeded every expectation we had. From the beginning, Zian was phenomenal in his communication—especially during the early stages when we were working through contract details, product selections, timeframes, and cost estimates. That level of transparency and responsiveness was incredibly important to me, and he delivered consistently throughout the project. While Superior Scapes wasn’t the cheapest quote we received, they were also far from the most expensive. Their pricing was fair and absolutely worth the quality and dedication they brought to the job. Both Zian and Keegan were easy to work with, respectful, and genuinely invested in our vision. They took my ideas and helped us create our dream backyard. They personally handled major parts of the project—retaining wall, firepit, sprinkler repositioning and repairs, and all the cleanup—while also coordinating with trusted local contractors for specialized tasks like the deck, concrete work, and sod installation. Their network is solid, and they manage it seamlessly. What stood out most was their work ethic and attention to detail. They worked long hours, never complained, and were meticulous—repositioning landscape blocks multiple times until the angles and flow were just right. It’s rare to find that level of care and pride in craftsmanship. As someone who’s a bit of a perfectionist, I’ve always believed no one would put as much thought and effort into a project as I would—but Zian and Keegan proved me wrong. They treated our project like it was their own, and they were incredibly kind and respectful to my wife and daughters. They took the time to understand us—not just what we wanted, but why—and that made all the difference. I highly recommend Superior Scapes for any landscaping project. If Zian and Keegan can’t do a specific task themselves, they’ll bring in the right people to make your vision a reality. They’re honest, hardworking, and truly care about delivering exceptional results."

"Ed and his crew were awesome to work with! They designed several ideas to go with our new contemporary lake home to give it that extra pop with lush sod, beautiful trees, shrubs and flowering plants. The crew worked very hard to meet our expectations and we are super pleased with the results!"

"

Due to shade, dog damage, etc., our back yard had turned into a mud yard.  The grass had thinned or died, and the soil had then eroded away.  Penton?s team added a few of inches of soil and then covered the soil with sod.

I first want to praise the Penton team for showing up when they said they would and doing what they agreed to do.  My back yard was transformed from mud yard to thick lawn.  My only complaint is with the damage done to my front yard while moving soil and sod to the back yard.  I understand that some damage is inevitable, but the other landscapers that I have seen put boards down to limit the heavy equipment damage.  Penton?s team instead put down narrow sod patches to cover the tracks left by their track steer.  This left a very uneven patch of lawn, with high tracks where the sod was set bordered by low ?barrow pit? areas.  Friends and neighbors have literally tripped due to the very uneven strips.  I don?t know how the damage can be repaired without stripping, leveling, and then re-sodding the area.

I?m very thankful for the work that John?s team did for us, but I get a little angry every time I mow the damaged area.

"We immediately liked Mike Schmidt when we met him for the
first time when he came to our house to talk to us on how we wanted to remodel
our kitchen and give an estimate.  Mike is a positive person who is a
great listener, very approachable, easy to talk to and always in a great
mood.  I can not emphasize enough what a great listener he was to our
ideas for our kitchen. Other contractors we had contacted before Mike for
estimates had said they only do this option or this option and that was it and
would not listen to our ideas and were rude.  My wife had very specific
ideas of things she wanted in the new kitchen along with several custom made
things that would be unique in our kitchen.  Mike was always polite and
said Joe and his crew could do all of those things.  He wrote down all of
her ideas.  My wife also gave him a photograph of an industrial type steel
railing she saw on Pinterest and wanted that railing custom made along with a
gate to match to stop our grandchild from going downstairs and also for our
dogs. She also wanted a feature wall where the entire wall would have old
barnwood on it and a custom made pantry screen door with old barn wood on it
also. Joe built and installed all these things.  Mike would bring pieces
of barn wood to see what we thought of it and sent pictures of wood.  Mike
and Joe always asked and listened to my wife's ideas and made great suggestions
too on things that sounded like what she was looking for. Mike always answers
his phone and is very willing to answer questions.
Joe takes great pride in his work and everything he works with turns out
awesome.  He also is a great listener and is in a great mood.  Mike
and Joe and crew were always on time and did a great job of cleaning before
they left each day.  We are so amazed at how beautiful the railing and
gate are that Joe created, welded together and installed.
Mike and Joe truly represent what a contractor should be.  They showed the
following:
Listens well, are in great moods, can talk to them on ideas and/or changes,
friendly, creates a positive environment, enjoys their work, communicates well
with talking, sending a text, answering the phone, and sending e-mails
including suggestion photos and ideas, extremely hard working, great pride in
their work and have a great price for remodeling.
Mike is the best contractor I have ever worked with. Joe is amazing and can
create and install anything the customer would like.  Joe told my wife how
he was so looking forward to creating our railing and gate. Joe loves his job.
This is the best contractor experience we have ever had. I have already
recommended Mike and Joe to all our friends and will contact them again for any
future remodeling. 
 Everything in our kitchen is exactly how we pictured it in our minds, We love it,
are very happy and are totally satisfied!! Thank you Mike and Joe!!

"Our driveway tear out and replacement went great. Crew got there about 10 am and immediately started to work on the demo. By the end of the day, they had removed all the old concrete in the driveway and front stoop, framed in the new drive and stoop, lain the sub-grade, and installed the rebar. They were back first thing the next morning to pour the concrete and finished before noon. Mike also put in wider expansion joints to combat the "street creep" that was the cause of our driveway and minor structural issues. We had an old basketball hoop set in concrete that that they removed for us and filled the hole in with dirt. My wife couldn't believe how fast the crew worked during the whole process and they did an excellent job of cleaning up both days they were there. I did have a bid that was $200 lower than but it didn't include rebar. Very satisfied with the work done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."

"It went really well. Finding a solid spot to attach grab bars through a fiberglass shower enclosure is tricky because of the gap between the fiberglass and the studs. Chris found a kit from Moen that made the installation look fantastic and super safe. I think he was unfamiliar with this kind of an installation before this project but he did his homework and we ended up with a really nice job. The installation looked very professional and Chris did a great job of clean up afterwards. I would definitely use him again."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Saint-columbans, NE

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.
