"I have had a horrible experience with Leading Legacy Landscaping. Unless your garden only has grass, I would not recommend them. Last week, a worker came in after I hired them to pick up leaves and other debris. When I came out to greet him, I found him cutting through my plants. The reasoning was: I cannot blow leaves since they are stuck in your plants 𠤯 we called the manager, and instead of offering an apology, I was told that these plants were invasive. It did not matter to the manager that I bought these ferns, snake plants, and milkweeds in a nursery. Now my garden looks like bare dirt. I had already faced issues with their services. Several months prior, I hired them to cut the grass. They had damaged my passion fruit plant, mango tree, fig tree, and plastic poll. I was told it was because of a new guy, so I gave them a second chance. Looks like I should not have."

"Been using this company after my daughter recommended them. On Miami Beach many of her friends use them on high end properties so I hired them to do ongoing property maintenance and just finished this week a huge project which as part of it had many 40' trees topped and shaped along with heavy duty tree work On time and did what they sated they would do. None of the individuals I know would use their services if they were not good."

They ensured that the job was done to perfection, exceeding the customer’s expectations. The satisfaction they provided went beyond the repairs themselves, even before, during, and after the job was completed. Overall, it was an extremely satisfying experience, and I will definitely do business with them again."

"I've been through 8 lawn services in the 14 years I've lived in Florida. They have either disappeared without a trace or I've had to let them go for co tinies substandard work and carelessness even when I kindly tried to give them feedback so they could meet my standards. D.R.'s Lawn Care, from the get go has been communicative, thorough, clearly takes pride in their work and it's been an amazing journey since I hired them. My lawn and yard have never looked better and I never have to worry about what they broke or what they left ubdone. They are amazing and I highly, highly recommend them if you want affordable, awesome lawn care!!!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Lake Worth, 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.
