Couple weeks later Ricky made a wonderful offer to trim & thin out two remaining large trees (40+ ft tall), plant some jasmine, pressure wash house, driveway, walkways, gutters. All excellent quality work done to perfection. Ricky likes to specialize in outdoor landscaping work, but if you need ANYTHING done in your home, just ask.

"I couldn?t be happier with the sod installation from Green Horizons of SWFL. Juan and his team were professional, on time, and very detail-oriented. The new sod was installed seamlessly, with clean edges and a lush, healthy look right from the start. They took the time to prep the area properly and made sure everything was watered and set perfectly before finishing. Excellent communication throughout the process, and the results speak for themselves?my yard looks brand new! Highly recommend their work.?"

"Mowed my yard every week in the dry season, so short, they broke multiple sprinkler heads. Rainy season comes and they hardly showed. Main reason for hiring this service was for the shrub maintenance that was included, that only happened 2 maybe 3 times in an 8 month period and that only happened because I had to reach out and ask when they were coming to service. Their administration specifically HALEY -- extremely unprofessional, doesn't care about the customer, talks over you from a speaker phone and repeats herself without solving issues. They said I was a problem client because I continued to ask when services would be provided. Then they advised they would LOVE TO CONTINUE servicing my lawn. So I agreed, then they didn't show for 3wks, never returned any of my calls or texts and when I called and finally got through to Haley, she advised ..."oh your file says we re not servicing you any longer". UNPROFESSIONAL - UNRELIABLE - UNCOMMITTED - TAKERS NOT WORKERS - AVOID!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Fort Myers, 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.
