"I called Alejandro on Saturday. We made an appointment for Sunday and he showed up early. He said he could do the job on Tuesday but then called back later in the day Sunday to say he could get it done on Monday. He showed up right on time, did exactly what I asked him to do, cleaned up and left my back yard looking way better than it had before.
I'm going to get an estimate from him on removing an even bigger palm tree that I've hated since we moved in. I plan on using him again later this summer.

"Cristian and his team did an amazing job. They were fast, kept to their schedule and clean up when they were finished. As we walk around our neighborhood and see others with pavers and artificial grass, Cristian’s team has probably done one of the best work in the neighborhood. On top of that, Cristian honored his pricing and kept to his estimate. We would definitely hire again."

"We had a fantastic experience with Gonzolo’s B&D Landscaping Inc. team. They transformed our hard-packed yard by digging, enriching the soil, laying beautiful sod, and building a sturdy stone wall around the trees. The result is a lush, peaceful space we love seeing every day. The crew was polite, professional, and respectful—always offering helpful options that fit our budget. They worked quietly, efficiently, and kept everything spotless. We’re already planning the next phase of our backyard oasis with them!"

"Eric is the best! He’s super friendly, highly knowledgeable, and truly listens to his clients. The quality of his work is outstanding and very reasonably priced. Eric contacted me immediately after I posted my project, which I really appreciated. I needed two king palms and their roots removed from my front yard, and Eric and his crew completed the job in just three hours. They did an excellent job and left the area spotless. The professionalism and strong work ethic of the LQ Landscaping crew clearly reflect how well Eric trains his team. I will definitely hire LQ Landscaping for future projects and highly recommend them. 5+ stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"The job went well and was mostly done in one day.  Landscape West sent a large crew to get this done fast.  As a first time buyer of artificial turf you put a lot of faith in the installer for recommendations. John does not disappoint. He delivered  as we went with his recommendation on the turf that was popular and very natural looking.  John also has a good sense of landscape design that I did not find with other installers.  After the job I had a couple of questions.  John sent his supervisor out to talk to me.  Nice personal touch.  I got 2 other quotes and Landscape West was the same price as others who brought less knowledge to the table.  
We had a significant rain storm and the artificial turf drains better than our natural lawn. 
I strongly recommend Landscape West.."

"My husband and I are thrilled with our kitchen designed by Ran at Goodfellas. Not only is the finished product exactly what we hoped for, the customer service delivered by the team was amazing. Ran listened to our ideas for the kitchen and came up with a great design that is functional and looks so pleasing. He was super patient as we made small tweaks to the design until it was just as we wanted it. When it came time to install, Ran and his crew did an above and beyond job working with our uneven floors and ceiling. Working on the smallest details to get them just right, and all with a smile! The price is great especially for the high quality of cabinets and service. We went with custom paint colors and they did such a great job. I would highly encourage anyone getting a new kitchen to go with them. Ask for Ran!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Somis, CA

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.
