Priorities and scope
Tell us what you’d like done at your Richardson property. Send rough measurements and photos so we can see where to start.
Preparation and sequence
Check the sunlight, water and access. Work out which jobs need to happen before the new lawn or finished surface goes in.
Estimate and handover
Agree on materials, preparation, cleanup and care instructions. Before scheduling, decide who will handle any approvals.
BEFORE YOUR NEW LAWN GOES IN
A watering plan for your Richardson lawn
Work out how you'll care for the grass before installation day. New sod needs water, but you still need to follow your provider's rules and any exceptions it approves.
Watering rules, establishment and aftercare
Confirm the provider and current rules
Look at the provider named on your water bill. Check its watering days, allowed times and current drought restrictions. Rules can change with the season and water source.
Richardson: Water conservation FAQs ↗Check new-landscape watering before scheduling
Ask your water provider whether extra watering is allowed for your project, whether you need to apply and which conditions you'll need to follow. New sod doesn't get an automatic exemption.
Find the Provider’s Guidance & Contact Details ↗Care for the lawn within the approved conditions
Check the moisture under the sod, watch the roots take hold and use the first-mow checks in our guide. If your watering setup won't support the new lawn, tell us before installation.

Richardson landscaping questions
Can I hire you just to install sod?
Yes. You can request sod installation on its own. Our minimum is one pallet, covering 450 sq. ft. Include an approximate area and photos if available. Explore sod installation and the estimate calculator.
How much does a new lawn cost?
Starting installed prices are $2.35 per sq. ft. for Bermuda, $2.45 for St. Augustine and $2.55 for Zoysia, before tax. Additional grading, drainage and irrigation are separate. Your written estimate confirms preparation, site conditions and the final scope.
How quickly can you install my sod?
The work and schedule depend on area, removal, preparation, access, weather and availability. Share your preferred timeframe and we’ll discuss a realistic installation date. The lawn will still need care while the grass takes root afterward.
Which grass works best in a shaded yard?
That depends on the amount of light, use and site conditions. All lawn grasses need sufficient light; no grass choice solves every heavily shaded area. Use our grass comparison guide to narrow the options.
Can I combine sod with drainage or stone borders?
Yes. Discuss drainage, irrigation and borders at the start so the work can be sequenced before the new lawn is installed.
Do you offer more than lawn installation?
Yes. Explore outdoor living, hardscaping, fencing, lighting and tree services. The service directory above includes our current offering.
Do you serve my part of Richardson?
We welcome inquiries throughout Richardson. Send the full property address so we can confirm service availability, access and scheduling for your project.
Do I need a finished design before requesting an estimate?
No. Start with photos and the outcome you want. We can discuss options and a practical scope; confirm any formal design deliverables separately.
