"Magic Landscaping did an amazing job installing my sprinkler system. Marvin kept me informed of all steps of the project and he answered any questions I had in a timely manner. I felt at ease throughout the project and Marvin really came through for me!! I was putting this project for many years but I am glad I found this company. Friendly, professional and genuine are three words that sum up Magic Landscaping. I would hire them again for future projects. I am very selective and I would recommend this company to anyone!!"

Small jobs welcome

"I had a great experience working with LASH Landscape, especially with Landon. The team was very professional and clearly worked hard to get everything done right. Landon was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, attentive to my requests, and genuinely cared about making sure the work matched what I had in mind. As someone new to the area, finding a contractor I could trust felt a bit daunting, but Landon really delivered. He was reliable, supportive, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. On top of that, the pricing was reasonable for the quality of the work. I would absolutely recommend Landon and the LASH Landscape team without hesitation. I’m very grateful for their help and the difference they made. Thank you, team!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Stonecrest, GA

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.
