Featured Reviews for Sod Installers in Newport

Landscape Oasis LLC
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 24, 2015
“We have used Landscape Oasis for a couple of years. We originally interviewed several companies for our projects and Landscape Oasis worked with us to both meet our needs and budget. They offered great suggestions, came when they said, were always professional and cleaned up after themselves. We will continue to use their services and recommend them for both any and all outdoor lighting and landscaping work.”
Botanical Creations
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 8, 2015
“We hired Geoff to design all of the plantings in our new home and our yard is BEAUTIFUL ! All the plants were a good size, they have grown and filled in just as Geoff said they would. They arrived on time for every appointment and left the yard neat upon leaving each day. Everyone who works for Botanical Creations has been helpful and knowledgeable. Over the last 5 years we have had them back to add garden areas and each time we have been pleased with the results. We highly recommend Botanical Creations.”

“Seldom can a landscape company be so professional and thorough. From their project managers to the installers and maintenance staff, all of Natureworks employees strive for client satisfaction and superior service. It was a pleasure to work with them as a designer. I hope to do many more projects with Natureworks in the future.”
D'Urso Landscaping and Construction, Inc.
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 10, 2023
“We would give them more than 5 stars if we could. D’Urso Landscape & Construction provides terrific design and installation services. We are really impressed. The most standout aspects are their stellar design, communication/customer service, and installation skills. They have a landscape designer on staff who will come on site and design everything and extensively help with material selection. Once samples are delivered and materials are chosen, they provide a detailed estimate and a to-scale design plan for final review. During installation, the owner Lucio, is personally here every day and heavily involved in the the entire project. He lays most of the materials himself and his team is very competent as well. The installation was precise and polished. It is refreshing to have the owner working alongside the team making sure everything is perfect and interacting with the homeowner to answer any questions that arise. Lucio also approached us a few times to offer some improvements that weren’t in the initial scope of the project such as pulling out old stumps, filling in an empty septic tank, and dealing with some rotted wood issues on my home. When they finished, the cleanup was super as well. Lucio, Kristin, and the entire team are just terrific and a pleasure to work with. They constantly go above and beyond during every phase of the project and, importantly, are good, kind people. We would 100% recommend them and plan to use them again in the future. We are absolutely thrilled with how our landscape has turned out. This company is impressive, knowledgable and most importantly they care about their customers and projects.”
RLM Landscape & Masonry
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 20, 2015
“We worked with Ryan to design an overall landscaping plan for our home. He was easy to work with, listened well and provided great ideas. RLM did a great job on our design plan and we are now completing the build phase in stages. In addition to the landscape work his crew is also taking great care of our lawn from spring through fall ... the guys are great...friendly and respectful with our entire family including our 4 legged members. This spring we added some driveway accent pavers, landscaped our front yard and slice-seeded our half acre and addition to adding a sprinkler system. We are already looking forward our next phase...relocating our hot tub and adding a paver patio complete with fire pit! We would recommend RLM to anyone looking for a high high quality design, build and maintain landscape company in southern Rhode Island!”
City & Estate Gardener
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 12, 2017
“City and Estate a Gardener have been working for us for 10 years now and we would not have been able to cope with our half acre without them. They have successfully transplanted many trees and shrubs over the years. After a big renovation project to our house, they reconstructed all the landscaping putting in a drainage system and all new plants. Tom is well qualified in horticulture and is able to advise us on what plants grow well in our area. He and his crew are very professional and reliable. In the 10 years that they have worked for us, they have never let us down. Our yard looks amazing because of the dedication of City and Estate Gardener. I would highly recommend them! In the winter, we rely on them for snow removal as well.”

“I have been a customer of Hillside & Marc for many years. His work is nothing short of amazing! His ideas & designs are creative. He gets super busy but defiantly worth waiting for - you will not be disappointed. I get compliments all the time on my plantings, walkways and patio! Marc created an inviting space that I am able to use 3 season! This year with quarantine I was especially grateful to be home enjoying my great space. Thanks Marc!!”
Terra Verde
Sod Installers in Newport
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 3, 2015
“The project was installation of a 1500 sq ft unilock paver patio around my 16x32 pool, including pool coping. Job was performed perfectly with proper grading resulting in rain and water running off in the right directions. Everything is level, square, and tight. They were honest and reliable. They always came when they said they were going to come and worked within the time frame given to me during the estimate, which was nice as other companies lately seem to give you the run around and then you have to chase them to start/finish. They were a little higher in price than some of my other estimates, but I feel that sometimes "you get what you pay for" and in this case, they performed high quality work. I would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”

Landscaper FAQs
The duration depends on the lawn size and preparation needs, but most residential projects are completed within 1-2 days. Larger or more complex landscapes requiring significant soil preparation or custom solutions might take longer. Consultation with your installer will provide a more precise timeline based on your specific situation.
Selecting the right type of sod involves considering your local climate, soil type, sun exposure, and water availability. Common types include Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine, and Fescue, each with specific care requirements and benefits. Professional sod installers can provide guidance based on soil testing and local experience, ensuring the sod type matches your environmental conditions and maintenance preferences.
Homeowners should clear the lawn area of debris, furniture, and toys. Marking out sprinkler heads, utility lines, and similar obstacles can prevent damage. Ensuring easy access to the lawn area for large rolls of sod and equipment is also helpful. Discuss with your installer if additional steps like old lawn removal or soil treatment are needed before installation.
Installers use their experience to address challenges such as uneven ground (by leveling and compacting soil), poor soil quality (through amendments or topsoil), shade (selecting shade-tolerant grass types), and drainage issues (installing drainage solutions or grading the lawn). They assess your site-specific challenges during the consultation to plan effective solutions.
Yes, eco-friendly options include selecting drought-tolerant grass types to reduce water usage, opting for organic soil amendments, and choosing local sod farms to decrease transportation emissions. Discussing these preferences with your installer can help identify sustainable practices that align with your environmental values.
After installation, itʼs crucial to follow the watering schedule recommended by your installer, generally involving deep watering to encourage deep root growth. Avoid walking on new sod until itʼs firmly rooted, and begin mowing when it reaches recommended height. A maintenance plan including fertilization, aeration, and overseeding as needed will help your lawn thrive long-term. Consult your sod installer for a personalized care plan.
