"We had Monique's Landscaping & Design come and do a couple of hours work in our yard this morning. The removed an old garden that was full of weeds and laid new sod in its place. Monique, plus her two workers, Andre and Michael did an excellent job. Monique was very professional to deal with and followed through with a lot of advice about how we should follow up with treating the new sod. I would thoroughly recommend her if you are considering having any landscape work performed in your yard."

"Curtis & Darla were great. The type of people you would want to come back and do jobs again and again. They came on a Monday. We needed some sod laid down. They actually started the job that day and weâ re finished by Friday. They also cut down two trees, planted a palm with other flowers and laid down wood chips. You can definitely trust them to take care of you."

"Excellent landscaping service from start to finish. The team was professional, on time, and very detail-oriented. The sod installation was outstanding?they properly prepared the ground, leveled the soil, and laid each piece of sod tightly and evenly so there were no gaps or uneven spots. You can tell they take pride in their work because the lawn looks smooth, healthy, and professionally finished. They also cleaned up everything before leaving. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for quality landscaping and sod installation. "

"I had landscaping and sod installed by Esposito's and I am very happy with the work. Every step of the way was very easy, from the beginning consultation until the final installation. They kept in touch with me and always answered when I called. The price was very fair and the end result looks great and is exactly what I was wanting. I would definitely recommend and would be happy to hire them again in the future."

"Nathan surveyed the 3/4 of the St. Augustine grass lawn needing replacement. His excellent, well-trained, happy (!) crew were very pleasant. They killed the old lawn and cut it down to dirt. After a week, they returned to kill off any remaining Bermuda grass shoots. After the sod was delivered (9 pallets), they spent one day installing it, including careful trimming of pieces to make a perfect fit at boundaries with grass that was left in place. The result was remarkably flat and did not look like a sod replacement but a normal lawn!  My sprinkler guy, whowas in the sod business for decades, said it was the best job he had ever seen. I got good advice about the watering regimen to keep the grass going but avoid fungus. <br> <br>"

"Very Professional. Cost was less than expected and the work was very good. They showed up on time and quickly respaced my sprinkler system pump/motor assembly, indexing valve and controller in about 2-hours. My lawn irrigation system has been completely restored. I would recommend Rehab Junkies without exception."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Melbourne Beach, 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.
