"My second time using AMVA Construction LLC for my two home bathroom & kitchen remodeling, they’re great, fast & professional. Alex walked me thru the process with confidence, got my blue prints done, all my permits and we passed with flying colors. I would recommend them greatly. I’m super happy I didn’t take a chance with the competitors."

"Lee and her team did an exellent job cleaning our new condo. The condo was recently completed and the developer left it a mess. We hired Lee to clean everything inclduing the floors, showers, windows, baseboards sinks and toilets. We left her our key and returned to a beautiful and clean condo.
Ona seperate occasion, we hired her to sit at our house for the cable company prior to our arrival. They are great, punctual and courteous.

"Great work done on my backsplash and island to include some electrical work. I can’t complain at all...I had my kitchen done with others and they came and fix my errors! Juan did the work and his wife assistance in paying attention to detail is great! Very detailed, clean, flexible and very customer oriented. I will be hiring again for another home project! I would highly recommend. They come on time, reasonable price and the attention is out of sight! Thank you Fernandez Floor and Bathroom!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Long-Key, 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.
