"The process took only two days. One the first day 8 workers were at my house at 8:13am to remove the old sprinkler system and dig the trenches for the new system. At noon the crew was trimmed to 4 workers and they completed the installation of the sprinkler system. The company providing the sod brought it by truck two days later at which time 2 worker installed the sod. The owner of the company showed me how to work the timer with had been installed in my garage. They completed the installation of sod that day and also programmed the timer for me. The lawn looks GREAT!!!! I appreciated the professionalism and work ethics of all of the workers and the owner."

"We enjoyed working with Fernando. He was highly recommended to us by family members. He was professional and prompt. He analyzed our existing landscaping for sprinkler needs, proceeded with the work, tested the sprinklers, and cleaned up so well we could not tell work was done. We have already spoken to Fernando about landscaping work in the future. Fernando also worked at my son's house in Lakewood, tearing out existing backyard landscaping, installing new sod and sprinklers, and planting a beautiful tree. We will both use Rainbow Landscaping in the future."

"I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional work performed by Vega Landscape on my recent hardscape and landscape project. From the initial consultation with the owner, Nick Vega, to the final reveal, the entire experience was nothing short of outstanding.  Nick's design consultation was incredibly insightful as he took the time to listen to my vision and offered creative and innovative solutions that exceeded my expectations. From beautifully poured concrete, smooth stucco walls, IPE wood fencing, artificial turf installation and modern pavers, the execution was flawless with impeccable craftsmanship. And let's not forget the plants! The plants Nick chose were everything I wanted and more, especially because I love seeing birds, bees and butterflies in my front and back yard. The final result has completely transformed my outdoor space. It is now a stunning and functional extension of my home, perfect for hanging out and enjoying the outdoors. The project significantly increased the curb appeal of my home and created a more private and relaxing outdoor living space. I am incredibly grateful to Vega Landscape for their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to creating such a beautiful and enduring space. I highly recommend Vega Landscape to anyone considering a hardscape or landscape project. They are truly the best in the business. I particularly appreciated Nick's consistent involvement throughout the entire project, from the initial design to the final completion."

"John Anguiano was able to start the project quickly, was competitively priced, and they did a fantastic job. His crew worked very hard tearing out the old concrete, installing sod, and installing a new concrete walkway. John checked the project site daily. Greatly appreciated."

"Francisco did a great job. Gave me a fair price and installed a block wall, added some landscaping to my patio and a fruit tree. I have gotten lots of compliments from my neighbors. There were some small unexpected set backs but his team had some great ideas and were able to fix the issues. I am more then pleased with their work and great customer service."

"They were great. Arrived and got straight to work. The person named William also helped a lot answered all my questions and was super friendly. Kept me notified on the project and were efficient. After finishing they packed everything up quickly as well and made sure there was no debris left. Definitely recommend if you need some work done on your home and want it done in due time. "

"Just had Paul come by and install a new Rain Bird wifi sprinkler timer. What a joy to meet him. Old school nice and installed it without a problem. Big shout out to Paul from Bellflower Landscaping. Note: I had called at least three other Landscape people, and all three of them said that they could not install a WIFI sprinkler timer. Paul did it without a problem!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Cypress, 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.
