Our team provides exceptional customer service and creates breathtaking designs that exceed our client’s expectations. At BLOOM HOUSE NY, we believe that a well-designed space can transform your environment and elevate your mood.

"I recently hired Bloom House for a complete redesign of my backyard and patio area in Brooklyn, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional, creative, and highly skilled. The initial consultation with Madiha Baig was impressive. She took the time to understand my vision, offering valuable suggestions that enhanced my original ideas. Her knowledge of plants, materials, and design trends was evident and really helped in shaping the final plan. Throughout the project, the team was punctual, courteous, and kept the workspace tidy. Communication was seamless, and I was always updated on the progress. The quality of their work is outstanding. They transformed my dull, lifeless backyard into a beautiful, vibrant space that I now love to spend time in. The new patio is stunning, with intricate stonework and comfortable, stylish furniture that perfectly complements the landscaping. I also appreciated their attention to detail. Madiha chose plants that are both beautiful and low-maintenance. The end result is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and dog friendly. Overall, Bloom House exceeded my expectations in every way. Their expertise and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly commendable. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space into a personal oasis. Thank you, Bloom House, and especially Madiha Baig, for making my backyard dreams come true!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Union City, NJ

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.
