Just received a quote for over 10k for 40% of the remaining fence and sod and it has me considering a DIY on the sod but perhaps there is a reason it is so expensive and best left for a pro?
Edit, or suggestions for fence / sod company you were happy with after shopping some prices?

When I was doing my front yard, I rented a bobcat from Home Depot and did it all myself. I had bobcat experience so I knew what I was doing but it really wasn't all that hard. I dug a ton of clay out, put down fresh soil, smoothed it all out and then laid the sod. I watched a ton of youtube videos about how to do it, and it wasn't hard at all. Time consuming, but not difficult. Just get your locates done!
