"David’s crew trims our shrubs regularly, installed pallets of sod, selected and planted a maple tree and adjusted and revamped our irrigation system. David pays attention to every detail. He kept me informed of his progress throughout all projects and always sought our input regarding landscaping decisions. He is very professional and personable. It is a joy to work with DLA Landscaping. We will continue to use DLA for all our landscaping needs."

"I called LAS landscape & talked with Luis. Luis came out gave me the quote. We thought that the quote was quite fair. We accepted the quote & Luis had a crew out the next day to remove the old sod & resodded the lawn. I would not hesitate to call Luis @ LAS landscape again if I needed their services again."

"MWB Outdoor did an amazing job. Very professional and hard working. They are very methodical and maintain safety in every aspect of the job. Before the job was over Angie’s list called me and asked a couple of questions—then created a review in my name rating MWB with a 3 star and stated job wasn’t complete. This is my only review and if there was a rating higher than 5 MWB would get it. "

FAQs for sod installation projects in Okahumpka, 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.
