"Our existing irrigation system was over 15 years old and was beginning to spring leaks throughout our property.  After receiving a very competitive estimate, we contracted with AZ NativeScapes to remove the old irrigation system and to replace it with a new system.  They were able to complete the installation in one day to our total satisfaction.
We found Craig Rawlings and his team to be very professional and considerate.  They use only the best materials and latest technology.  Their work is top notch and we would highly recommend them to anyone considering an installation of this nature.

"Emanuel and his crew did an excellent job on some landscaping work in our back yard here in Mesa. They put down border tiles around our rose bushes, and put sod in where we ask them to. The job was done professionally and it looks GREAT! I would recommend highly. John & Maureen B."

"I could list dozens of specific instances, but to summarize, Daryl is a good guy and means well. But I believe that there is a quality issue that needs tighter control. Haphazard efforts on getting tiles straight around the pool area, unfinished or lack of a clean look around turns (cutting of tile), forgetting basic instructions for areas, etc. He's perfectly willing to fix problems, but the lack of proper oversight and note taking means that bigger jobs aren't the best fit for his crew. He has not come back on site since and unless he reads this I'm guessing he won't. Laid tiles on fire pit that curved upwards - had to reset Tiles that overhang around pool are not even - vertical 4 inch tiles have inconsistent gaps and spaces. Tile around support legs for balcony were poorly completed - had to give additional instructions to make it look right. When laying sod, didn't cut around pop up sprinkler. When it came on, sprinkler popped up under sod floor. Person laying sod left the utility knife in the grass next to last sod laid - my lawnmower found it. Travertine was laid in a checker pattern that didn't look natural - instructed it to be corrected. Job went 45 days when I was told it would be a week. Damage to granite countertop was to be fixed by him; claimed he called the repair people - never called or showed to fix it."

"we got several bids and first started with the cheapest. We later realized the cheapest did a terrible job on our irrigation system so we fired them and moved to Luis and AZ Yard Doctors. They fixed our irrigation system and did a wonderful job installing pavers and rock. We will hire them again for the next phase! Very professional, they were also very fast to complete but did so with high quality work!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in San Tan Valley, 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.
