"We had been looking for a "go to" landscaper that did good work within a reasonable price - that we could use over and over again. Minh is just this guy for us. We had him build a border wall with large retaining wall blocks as well as re-sod damaged grass due to very active puppies. The border had to match the fire pit color blend built 5 years ago. He took the time to find the correct, exact match for the color scheme as it was not designated on our old receipt from the previous contractor. The wall/border looks great. The sod looks great (nice and level). He is honest, does not try to "put on the sale" and most importantly does great work for a reasonable price! We will be hiring him any time we need landscape related work done!"

"Rock N Block is worth the investment! They were great to work with through each and every phase of the process, including Paul for the initial quote, Chris for project management, and Tony & the guys for installation. I am typically apprehensive when signing a contract and nervous my hopes and dreams won't be met. They did great to reassure us at every step in the process and answer our questions thoroughly. They even let us handle some of the prep work ourselves to save some money. We love the final product and have gotten many compliments from family and neighbors already."

"These guys are great! Very flexible on their working schedule, they even came by on Sunday to finish up the sod! The wife and I couldn't be happier with the sod and new deck they installed. On top of that he threw in mulch work that I didn't even ask for, but it desperately needed it! Rich is great!"

"David is incredibly professional, reached out right away and did an estimate for us. Although we knew we needed to start with a retaining wall and re-grading of our backyard, we figured we would be doing our backyard over haul in phases (construction, rock install, irrigation system and sod, etc). That changed once we saw how meticulous, thoughtful and professional his work was, he earned all of our business and we ended up completing our whole job with him. He has helped work within our budget and timeline to transform our backyard from a dirt and rock hill to a yard for our son. He has a great team that works hard, right next to him. Always early to the site, perfect communication, clean and respectful of property. Not only will we use him for future projects but we have and will continue to refer him to friends and neighbors. We are beyond satisfied."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Evergreen, CO

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.
