"I first hired D.L.A. Landscaping to remove a large oak tree in my front yard that had large roots growing on top of the grass and was close to my house. David came out and priced the job of removing the tree and per contract also trimmed down a lot of the large roots on top of the ground. After the tree was finished I needed new sod in parts of my yard so David priced that for me and the sod looked really good. I would recommend his company for any outside work you may have. All of the workers were very nice and David is exceptional at keeping his customer happy."

"More work was done than allowed to fill in spot. Including trim bushes, trim palm trees, lay sod in an area in back yard, power wash driveway and garden curbing. Restore garden lights to original status. Rain held up a lot and took longer to complete but eventually it all got done as promised."

"I first hired Corey for a sod install in January, I subsequently had him back to do a front and back yard landscaping job and finally had him back for finishing touches with stone installation in both the front and backyard. I cannot stress enough how pleased I am with all the work he has doneâ ¦ I was very fortunate to find him and I will continue to have him back for all of my property improvements. A hearty thank you to you and your team."

"I cannot say enough good things about this lawn care service! My yard had gotten completely overgrown, and I was feeling overwhelmed trying to keep up with it. From the moment they arrived, I was impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for the work they do. They transformed my lawn from overgrown and unmanageable into something I can feel proud of. Every edge was perfectly trimmed, the mowing was done with precision, and they left everything spotless. It’s clear they take pride in their work and treat every property as if it were their own. I truly appreciate the meticulous care and respect they showed throughout the process. The difference they made in just one visit is incredible, and I finally feel like I have my yard back! I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for top-notch lawn care with excellent professionalism."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Astatula, FL

Seeding costs less up front, but you’ll wait months—and sometimes a full season—for the grass to fill in. Sod costs more per square foot, yet it gives you an instant, usable lawn the day it’s installed and needs far less care during the first year. 

If speed and early curb appeal matter, the higher sod price is often worth it; if you’re watching every dollar and don’t mind the wait, seed can still be a smart play.

Start by sketching your lawn and breaking it into rectangles or circles. Measure each section, multiply length by width, and then add all the sections together for the total square footage. Standard sod rolls are two feet by 1.5 feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. 

Divide your total area by 450 to see how many pallets you need, then round up—extras come in handy for cutting around curves or mistakes. Still unsure? A local sod supplier or installer can confirm your math before you order.

Most sod grips the soil within 10 to 14 days. During that stretch, keep foot traffic to a minimum and mow only if the grass gets tall. After two weeks, the roots should be strong enough for light use, but wait six weeks before heavy play or frequent mowing. Giving the grass that short honeymoon helps it anchor firmly and sets the stage for a durable, healthy lawn.

Give your new lawn two full weeks before any foot traffic, then stick to light use only. Hold off on vigorous play, parties, or regular mowing until the six-week mark so the roots can dig deep. Keep watering on schedule and watch for any dry patches. A little patience now means stronger turf and fewer repairs later.

Keep an eye on color, moisture, and even growth. Fresh sod should stay uniformly green; brown spots or gaps hint at dry soil or poor contact. Water deeply at least once a day for the first week (more in hot weather) and back off gradually after the roots take. Avoid heavy foot traffic until the grass feels firmly anchored. Quick attention to trouble spots now prevents costly patches later.

Aim for spring or early fall when daytime temps hover between 55°F and 80°F. Mild weather and consistent moisture help the roots knit quickly. Laying sod in midsummer can stress the grass, while frozen winter soil blocks rooting altogether. 

If you must install outside the ideal window, budget extra time for watering and tending to the turf. Choosing the right season makes the job easier and the lawn tougher.
