"Mr. Gomez and his crew did an excellent job installing a pallet of sod and creating a pea gravel walkway for us. The pre work was done in one morning and the sod was installed the next day a few hours after it was delivered. A quote was given on Monday. I ordered the sod myself as I wanted too. His crew came to our house when scheduled and did an excellent job. Thanks."

"Like I said before we have not proceeded with the remodel. Jake has followed up with us consistently and courteously but not being pressured. He had great ideas on how to save money and was willing to let us do most of the things that we could do ourselves which I really liked and appreciated.

"H Morey construction did an amazing job at demolishing and removing my concrete side walk. He was very nice and was straight forward with his pricing. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs any sort of demolition and excavating work. And im sure all of his other services are top notch also."

"I recommend Aaron Gibbs's services as a handyman. He has done all types of remodels/repairs for me over the past year, from carpentry projects to odd jobs around my house. He is responsible, punctual, and a quick worker. Aaron is also a nice person. This past winter I wanted to remodel my kitchen and bathroom (tearing out and replacing cabinets, shower, etc) he listened to my ideas, shared his experiences and did the job in a professional and timely manner. I could not be more pleased with Aaron Gibbs's skills and work ethic. It's my pleasure to recommend Aaron Gibbs and his services."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Westport, WA

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.
