Our goal is to provide affordable solutions to modern outdoor living. With over 25 years in business we have been proudly serving Orange County earning awards from the Southern California Spring Garden Show and have been featured on some of HGTV’s highest rated shows! What separates us from our competition is owner Nick Vega, personally oversees every project from start to finish. This means direct communication with you every step of the way to ensure you are fully satisfied with the final outcome of your project. In addition to Nick’s award winning designs, we can help with all aspects of landscape and hardscape. If you’re in need of a design or you just have a small project you want taken care of give us a call!

"Vega Landscape did a remarkable job on our project from start to finish and the plans and proposal went smoothly. Nick and his crew showed up and did a great job. We had a few changes in the project as we got started and it all turned out great. Top quality plants, pavers and we love our new BBQ island with the tile and under counter lighting. Highly recommend Nick Vega and his team."

FAQs for sod installation projects in San Clemente, CA

Seeding is less expensive up front compared to sod installation. However, sod provides an instant lawn with minimal maintenance, while seeded lawns require extended care and can take up to two years to fully establish.

“To determine how much sod you need, first calculate your yard’s total area by sketching your layout and multiplying each section’s length by its width. Standard sod pieces measure 2 feet by 1½ feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. Divide your total square footage by this pallet coverage figure and consult your sod provider for precise estimates to ensure you purchase the correct amount.”

“New sod develops a strong root system within 10 to 14 days, so it is not ready for heavy use until this period is complete. Do not walk on or disturb the sod during this critical phase, as premature activity delays healthy rooting. Allow the grass to settle firmly to secure long-term lawn durability.”

“You can begin limited, careful use of your lawn two weeks after installation to allow initial rooting. However, refrain from heavy traffic or frequent mowing until six weeks have passed and the roots have fully anchored the sod. Consistent watering during this period is essential to promote robust development and long-term stability.”

“After installation, monitor your sod closely for balanced color and uniform moisture. Watch for brown patches or uneven growth, as these indicate dehydration or nutrient deficiencies. Maintaining a steady watering schedule and ensuring the sod remains undisturbed during its early stages are essential steps to guarantee robust root development and a healthy, attractive lawn.”

“The best time to install sod is during spring or fall. These seasons offer optimal temperatures and moisture levels that ensure rapid rooting and strong establishment. Avoid installing sod in winter when the ground is frozen or in summer when extreme heat can dehydrate the grass, as proper conditions are critical for a durable lawn.”
