"Abel was on time and very efficient in his work. We asked Abel to replace our backyard lawn with new sod. Abel came with one of his workers and the lawn looks great. We were so impressed with their work that we had them do some additional work on our sprinkler system. I will be calling Abel for all my future landscaping needs."

"They went above and beyond the norm in the sod installation. Doing such things as straightening and rearranging landscape rocks and edging and fixing sprinklers. Very easy to work with and have a high degree of confidence in the quality of the work."

"This was our second time using Pinckard Landscaping, and once again, it was truly a job well done. This time, we decided to have new landscaping installed in our front yard. We worked with Sandy and after meeting with us, discussing our preferences and taking meticulous measurements, she came back with a color rendering of her recommendations for the project. We made just a few adjustments and the work began the following week. The yard looks amazing!"

"Stayed in constant communication with me throughout the sod installation and landscape design so I was aware of what was being done. There were no surprises with the cost and what was being done."

"Cesar contacted me proactively once I posted my project. His customer service and communication was excellent and even came by on a Sunday morning to take measurements and walk us through his recommendations for our front yard. The job was done two days later. He even sent me pictures of the plants and flowers he was planning to put in the day before the installation. The price may have been on the higher side but I would highly recommend Cesar and his company and I would use him for a future projects as well."

"Gerardo and crew did great work. There was a lot of rain the day before the install, but they came out and determined the area was dry enough to do the work. The sod turned out great."

"José and his crew were amazing and did such a beautiful job! They revamped flower beds, installed drain lines, built an island bed, and dug a burn pit for us. They worked nonstop and did a wonderful clean-up at the end. We will most definitely use them again!"

"We recently bought a home in Frisco. The lawn was in very bad shape. It was hard for me to visualize what would look good. I had some other companies give me bids and most companies want you to have some idea of what you want. Unfortunately I didn’t know much about sod, plants or types of stones that would look good. Thankfully Michael Rohe from Landscape Innovations came by and had a vision of what woul look good and work in my yard. My yard is now beautiful. New sod in the front and back yards, gorgeous stone and plants that will require minimal care. I now have people stopping by taking pictures of my lawn. My neighbors are so thankful we moved in and made this house beautiful. Thank you Michael for you vision and all your help. Michael worked around my schedule and asked how much money I wanted to spend. I must admit I did go over budget but it is a investment that I think will pay for itself in time. The workers that came were very polite and professional. But Michael was not far away and came to supervise the whole project. That was important to me. Thank you Michael"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Irving, TX

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.
