Meyer Zoysia Turf Installation - Alpharetta, GA
This is a back yard project where we installed 3,000 sf of Meyer Zoysia in March of 2014. We removed the old grass, pullverized the soil, added soil amendments, installed new Meyer Zoysia, and rolled the area. We also adjusted the irrigation heads as needed. Turf has done really well! This picture taken in July 2014 just 3 months after installation. We also maintain this lawn. The sod has been reel mowed.

Testimonials
Great experience and I am eager to recommend their services to as many people as I can. They responded quickly and listened attentively. They were the first vendor to understand what services I was looking for without pushing more services on me. This company is down to earth and just plain hardworking and professional. The kind of company I would recommend to my grandparents!
Ginny - Cumming
Conscientious hard workers who were very reliable, dependable and pleasant to work with on our project. I appreciate their efforts in completing the task in a timely manner. Love the results...
Bill - Alpharetta
I was impressed with the professionalism and expertise of the owner, Jeff. He was open, honest and very helpful. His crew did a thorough job of installation and made sure that everything was clean and neat when complete. I would recommend his firm without reservations.
Ron T. - Alpharetta
Jeff and his team do a great job--courteous, timely and thorough. We hired them initially to put in some trees and I wish we had given them more of our landscaping installation work from the start. Walker's Green has since done more landscaping work for us and they give a fair price, do the work when they say they will and they do a great job. We've also taken Walker's Green on as our provider for lawn care services. We've got more landscaping and irrigation work to come and Walker's Green will get it.
Tom R. - Milton
Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I was able to speak with him when he came out, and we discussed his plan for getting my lawn back on track. In addition to basic fertilization, he's also going to be able to help me with some other landscaping items. The price was great, too.
John B. - Alpharetta
They did great work!
Clint - Cumming
We have had only a few weed/fertilization treatments done and our yard is already looking so much better! Jeff is extremely knowledgeable and provided us with great advice on how to get and maintain a healthy beautiful lawn. Also, the service we requested was completed very quickly after contacting him. I would highly recommend this company, as they are extremely professional and accommodating, and you will see great results if you have them treat your lawn.
Amy - Cumming
If you are considering replacing or patching your turf you should do yourself a favor and call Jeff at Walkers Green. He took the time to listen and recommend sod options based on my needs and current conditions. I had a quote within 24 hours and after comparison, determined his offered the best value. The sod was delivered fresh from the farm the morning of the install with Jeff there to inspect. He also took the time to help calibrate the irrigation system to make sure we were getting enough water coverage and it looks great!! I highly recommend Jeff and crew and will call them again.
David - Milton
We first asked Walkers Green, for an estimate in April 2014...it was the last of 3 and we felt it offered the best value. What impressed us most was Jeff's level of expertise..he went over the options we had, given the conditions in our backyard, and suggested that we have the soil tested by UGA for a nominal charge before proceeding.
After reviewing our test results we determined the best type of sod to install and set a date. Given the size of the job Jeff and his crew were able to remove the old grass, prep the ground and install new sod the same day!
Jeff was always on time and kept us in the loop by phone and email. The sod that was installed was cut that day..it was perfect. The installation was expertly done, my next door neighbor that owns a nursery said it was the best he'd seen!
We were very impressed with the outcome and follow-up from Jeff. The results exceeded our expectations!

Ginny - Cumming
Jeff Walker of Walker's Green installed 2000 sq ft of bermuda sod in my backyard on 5/19. In the time leading up to installation, he was responsive and very clear in his communication, providing recommendations and listing out exactly when the sod would arrive and what his team would do. His crew arrived promptly on the day of installation and I was very impressed with their effort and attention to detail - making sure the ground was prepped, removing stumps and roots,etc. Two weeks later, the sod is in excellent shape and already making a big difference to my backyard! I highly recommend Walker's Green as they were very professional and a pleasure to do business with.
