Weather plays a huge (an I emphasize), huge part in when we start. In order to install sprinklers, the ground must be able to support a 2000 lb machine. When the ground is frozen, it will support the machine, but the pipe won't go in the ground. Historically, once the ground thaws and dries a little, which is typically in April, we can start our work.
We have started as early as March 15 in years past, but it does not look like that is going to happen in 2014.
As for sod installation, the rules are very similar. The difference is, with grass, we need to make sure the grass is green before we bring it to you. Nobody wants sod that is brown and still dormant. Looking back over the years, we have been able to install sod as early as April 15th, and as late as May 15th.
The sooner the snow melts, the sooner we will be able to let the ground dry up and get working on the projects.
