"Project involved resodding large portion of front yard w/ St Augustine grass, replacing all plants/weeds & etc, in 1 large & 2 small front yard's landscape beds, repair irrigation system (broken pipe & heads) & install new rain sensor, take down dead elm tree in backyard, trim existing shrubs & mulch around them (front & back yard), & remove 2 tall loropetalum shrubs (replace with sod). Plus pressure wash whole house, driveway, sidewalks & clean pine needles out of gutters & haul away all debris. They sprayed all front lawn to be replaced & landscape beds to kill all weeds/plants a week prior to replanting beds & sod, then took only 1 1/2 days to finish job. George Smith (owner) very knowledgeable, friendly & professional. The crew sent to complete work were very experienced, hardworking & Pedro (headed crew) patient w/ all my questions & concerns. All work exceeded my expectations & was surprised that pressure washing included all of my white vinyl fencing in front & back yards."

"We really appreciated the professionalism and thoroughness of the team. Our family had been discussing wanting to remove both palm trees in our years because they were getting tall and there was risk of them falling over on our home or our neighbors home in the future. Andres actually came to our home one day to ask us about it, which i thought was a really smart sales strategy. He was kind and shared all details with us to help us make the decision quickly to remove them. Communication from the beginning was great, the team showed up on time, and swiftly removed both trees. The team also ensured any parts of the trees were removed from our lawn when they were done. It’s not easy to remove really tall palm trees but the team meticulously setup the area and safely removed the trees together. They made it look easy! We will absolutely refer the ABS team to neighbors and friends and will call in the future if we need any help. Thank you guys!!"

"Alan Pye is not only a VERY hard worker, but so is his helper, together they not only tore out 95% of the back and sides of the house, they installed sod that was so much better than the garbage another company installed, but my Wife and I could not be any happier with the final outcome of the work. ALAN explained the need for plenty of water, which helps the roots take hold in the dirt. If i ever need ANY OTHER work, you can be sure HE will be the one I call. He is proud of his work and rightly should be. GREAT JOB ALAN"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Callahan, 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.
