"Balance Landscaping did an excellent job or renovating our patio, including demolition of old concrete and cracked stamped concrete. They laid pavers, installed lighting, fixed our irrigation system, added plants and installed a pergola. Our patio has gone from dingy and unpleasant to AMAZING. Matt is great to work with; he listens, has solutions and is professional."

"I acquired several quotes to do full front and back yard landscaping. Daryl's quote was the most reasonable and I am very happy with the work. Daryl and his team finished in about 2 weeks and probably could have been done quicker, however, my wife and I made changes along the way that caused some delays and Daryl was very accommodating to our requests and provided excellent suggestions along the way. Daryl and team do fantastic work and I would not hesitate to hire him again for future projects. AAA+++ on service, price and professionalism. Here is what was included in the landscape package: 1) Demo and disposal of 2 large palm trees, 2 trees, existing planters, 400 sq ft of concrete driveway, cleanup of debris. 2) Install irrigation drip lines 3) 400 sq ft of pavers installed in driveway, installation of 2 8' x 4' garden planting areas, installation of paver boarder along front property line 4) 300 sq ft of artificial grass turf with paver boarder 5) Plant package: 10-5 gal plants, 3-7 gal queen palms 6) Free LED light system with up to 8 lights and transformer with timer 7) 30 tons of 1/4 inch rock delivered and installed"

"Issac was amazing from the first observation of my lawn and flooding issues. Seceral landscapers just wanted to add a drain wheras Isaac wanted to fix the root cause of the problem and had to relevel my yard with a ton of work to resolve the drainage issue. So far no flooding and the lawn looks so much better!"

"It was okay, nothing great. I had three other people give me bids. I had them do something and someone else do something else. I might use them again in the future if they give me the right price. To do better they could have improved their price and cleaning up better after they are done. It cost considerably over the big deal price. I had an agreement with the provider. <p></p>"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Maricopa, AZ

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.
