    I got Tall fescue sod and this started growing within two weeks. I'm disappointed and don't know what to do now.

    Superior Fescue
    Robert B.

    My patch of weeds and dirt were in need of a desperate makeover. I called California Sod Center on a Monday and got 1,304 sq of Superior Fescue sod delivered same week, Saturday morning, with absolutely no hiccups. They provided excellent customer service and provided everything I needed to get the job done from starter fertilizer to hooked blades for cutting the stuff they had it all. Delivery driver even placed 2 pallets of sod on my very steep inclined driveway and 1 in the street for easy access. I'm very happy with the quality of the sod and the way this project turned out. Definitely recommend them for your Sod needs!

    Loading the Sod

    Found this company on Craigslist (always wary), then saw their good ratings on Yelp! Decided to sod a small grass area at one of our rental properties. I needed 480 sq. feet which is a bit under a full pallet. Called just before closing and asked if that amount would fit in my truck and could I pick it up the morning? Received "Yes" answers to both. Did not need to pre order for that amount - just come down and get it! Next morning, no problem at all - ordered at the desk and was told to drive over to the sod area. The guy who helped me at the desk came out and loaded the sod. I have a regular size GMC Sierra pick up - it fit, but it was loaded heavy and riding low! No problems on the drive home though. The guy told me he threw in two extra pieces - the amount came out perfect - exactly two pieces left over when we finished laying the sod! (Rarely happens when I measure!) The sod was fresh, healthy and good quality - just make sure (with any sod) that it is picked up first thing in the morning, keep the pile of sod in the shade at the site (we used an EZ- up), install ASAP - then water thoroughly. They have a tool called a sod sickle for $3 - It was great for cutting the sod - well worth picking up (more than 1 if doing a large area). You can order for delivery as well - delivery charges vary with amount ordered. Online ordering is available, you can order tools and amendments as well. Delivery is the way to go for large areas - try to get the earliest delivery time possible! The new sod has been in a week, my new sprinkler system is having some issues (my fault), yet even with watering by hand the sod doing well and looks great!

    Front yard

    I did my homework before sodding. I removed the old grass the old fashioned way (shovel and sweat), ph tested and amended the soil, redid the irrigation and graded the plot. I debated back and forth on seeding or sodding and the area was so small, I figured I would give sodding a go as the price for California Sod was reasonable, even compared to box stores. I picked up 336 sqft of fescue to do my front yard. Much to my dismay, I payed it and the first 10 pieces or so were lush and beautiful. The rest were yellowing and browning. I called for advise and they told me to lay them and follow the watering procedures (3x day for the first 10 days, 1x the next 10 days, then 3 times per week) and it should come back. I wasted a lot of water those first three weeks. As I figured it would, the yellowing pieces died off so I called for support. I was put in touch with Renato who told me I needed to cut back on watering and to fertilize, that would surely bring it back. Well, I gave it two weeks and it didn't come back. He told me at any time, I could come pick up replacement pieces but I was very clear I didn't want to dig it up and relay it. I asked for a bag of seed and a bag of topsoil to repair the problem areas, instead. He obliged and dropped it at my house in anaheim hills. I removed the dead spots to bare soil, turned the soil and seeded, then added some top soil and started fertilizer. The lawn is thick and green after a few short weeks and I'm a happy camper. Being in sales myself, I get that stuff happens and am always willing to give companies a chance to make it right. Well, they did. Backyard will probably get seeded instead but I appreciated the customer support (Renato drove from chino to Anaheim Hills twice), especially for a customer that bought less than a pallet, and it all worked out great in the end. I will be buying plenty more products from this company.

    So thrilled with the product delivered. Thanks again! The driver was a friendly guy, and dropped the sod right in our driveway. Would definitely recommend the extra charge for delivery.

    I ordered 1,800 sq ft of fescue grass and the quality was top notch. It was freshly cut and was delivered on time. Most of all the custer service was excellent. Crystal made sure the order was accurate. If you ever need sod this is the place to buy.

    The finished product!

    We couldn't be happier with our new sod. It's beautiful grass, they delivered it when they said they would and their prices can't be beat!

    I've waited for over a year to make this review! I would like to say that my lawn is still looking great as ever! Thank you an amazing quality sod!

    First off the grass did not arrived fresh. We water it as much as posible to bring the dried out parts back to life. My gardener immediately informed me that the grass was mixed. We contacted them and they promised to solve the problem. They came twice and said they would come a third time to check on it and if the mixed grass was still growing they would replace at least the bad parts. They never came a third time and blame the backyard saying the bad grass and weed seed was there before hand. My backyard was bare for more than a year. It is simply impossible. We paid the price of St Augustine grass and got it mixed with other grass and weed. Very bad experience and they never took responsibility even thought we took pictures and they saw the problem in person. Make sure you check your grass sod before installing. Do not recomend.

    Our house was surrounded by dirt for three years. Finally had sod delivered this morning. They were on time, and amazing customer service!!! 100% recommended Ca sod center!! It looks amazing, amazing quality.

    So happy I went with California sod center the sod is amazing . The phone service was great , very fast ordering process over the phone. Sod was delivered during the scheduled time that was given to me, I wasn't home during delivery so they left it curbside. They help answer any questions questions I had, what I love the most they offer a 90 day warranty on the sod. Would highly recommend!

    Best prices on Fescue Sod. I was shopping around for sod and saw their website (also known as Superior Sod). Called in my order on a Wednesday for a Monday morning delivery. Savanna called on Sunday to confirm delivery time for monday. Driver was right within the time quoted. Quality of the sod was very good and fresh. Four weeks later it is growing nicely.

    California Sod Center is delivering our Fescue.

    They delivered dead grass, and didn't want to refund. Tired of talking about these scammers. I'm keeping this short.

    Our front yard looked dry and unattractive before laying fescue sod from the California Sod Center.

I was in luck and found a great variety of indoor and outdoor plants, including a rare variation too (white princess philo)! The atmosphere was calm and clean, just what I want in a garden. Matt helped me pick out some plants to suit different people's needs (i.e. whether someone was just getting into gardening, what's easier to keep alive, etc). He was very knowledgeable and super helpful. So excited to give these out as gifts and will definitely be coming back to shop for myself! Would recommend.

    Well, where to start? The location is fantastic just north of Upland and across the street from the…read moreshopping centers. I had always glanced over this location, and on this day happened to be in the market for some soil. The lot was thriving, not too crowded. People were looking about and soon a staff member took the time to show me some of their soil options and potting mixes. I settled on the organic palm and cactus mix. It was not dry upon opening, which I'm glad it was not, so far it's proving to be a fairly good quality. There's still some leftover in the yard. I saw many plants there. They had some pink aloe vera, along with a wide selection of succulents, which was nice to see. I had my eye set on something a little bit different though, an elephant bush. I knew they had some because some of the arrangements included elephant bush. So I just had to ask!Well, to my surprise they were more than happy to give me a longer tour of the southern part of the nursery, where they had far more sizes, big and small. I got to see some gigantic ones that I never expected to encounter in larger pots. Thank you Vic! It goes without saying I was impressed. Speaking about Vic, I just wanna say, many of the staff members were welcoming and went above and beyond to give me what I wanted. I was really impressed with Vic's extensive knowledge on house plants and his ability to help me find the size of this wonderful plant. Where I feel that most sales people would push you to buy a particular one item, Vic offered me choices, which I appreciate 100%. It's safe to say that type of salesmanship demands respect, and I will probably be coming back when I'm ready. Outside of my own personal experience, I noticed they have a variety of pots and fertilizers for all your growing needs. Always nice to see an assortment of pots and accessories for the home garden folk. Furthermore, Vic recommended a fantastic product as an addition to my watering routine, which within days has brought tremendous results. The plants absolutely love it, it amazing to think that this trip offered the plant, the service, and now the reassurance that if ever needed, they will be there to help answering any questions. That's all folks. If you have a problem with your project, there is no doubt they have the personnel to assist. Was a quick trip for me, but be prepared for an assortment of plant species and offerings.
