"The owner of D. R.’S Lawn Service came out and gave me the most reasonable estimate. He explained everything that he was going to do to my lawn. He couldn’t come out until 5/18/2021 which was fine with me. He took out all the dead grass and replaced it with new sod. They bagged all the old grass and then showed me the end product which was perfect. He told me if I had any problem call and he would take care of it. That is a 10 star review in my book. Jim Sharp"

"Joseph was awesome I had a lot of cut up tree limbs and palm frons that I desperately needed to get hauled away today. Joseph showed up promptly took everything away and made sure the area was left spotless. I will be sure to use and recommend his services as often as possible. Great job Joseph, I appreciate you."

Customers say: True professional

"Henry responded very quickly to my response. Came out same day to give a estimate. Gave a reasonable quote. This was a tough job for a small company having to remove a lot of dirt and install the sod. He and his men worked all day (which he thought it would take), but couldn’t complete it before dark (was a lot more dirt to be removed surprised both of us). They removed all the debris rock,dirt,roots leaving nothing but dirt. They returned first thing in the morning completing the job in a couple of hrs. Totally cleaned up the area could tell a project was done. Yard is now beautiful. Was so satisfied hired him for another project and arranged to have him do monthly maintenance to the yard. Henry and his crew are very polite and friendly. I would not hesitate in recommending Henry to anybody."

FAQs for sod installation projects in Palm 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.
