"If you’re looking for a landscaping company you can actually trust—stop searching and call All American Lawn Care & Landscaping. We hired them to install sod around our new patio, and I can honestly say this is one of the best contractor experiences we’ve ever had. The difference in our yard is night and day. The sod is perfectly laid, the ground was prepped the right way, and everything looks full, green, and professionally done. But what impressed me most wasn’t just the result—it was how they operate. They showed up when they said they would, worked hard the entire time, paid attention to the details most companies miss, and treated our home with real care and respect. In a world where it’s hard to find reliable, honest companies… these guys stand out. No shortcuts. No excuses. Just excellent work. If you’re in the Lakeland area and even thinking about sod or landscaping, do yourself a favor and call them first. You’ll be glad you did."

"I had the pleasure of hiring California Palms Landscaping for a large project at my home. Steven Miro and his team were fantastic. They installed a sprinkler system, plants and sod for my front and back yards. They were efficient, cost-effective and the utmost professionals. I was so pleased with the results I hired them again to install my patio. It looks awesome! I will be using California Palms Landscaping for all of my outdoor needs. I highly recommend you try them."

"I had Sampson Land Care out to get a quote for some sod work and also to have a tree trimmed. I am very happy with my experience. As far as the sod work, it was to fix a horrible job done by another company. I thought that all of the sod would need to be ripped out and new sod laid. Walter gave me 3 options. 1 included ripping up the old sod but he advised me that it wasn't necessary to go that drastic. So he also gave me 2 cheaper options and said for me to decide what I thought would be best for me. It's rare to find someone that honest to offer up cheaper options. He could easily have just quoted me for ripping up the old sod even though it did not need to be done. I was pleasantly surprised. As far as the tree trimming, it was also a great experience. He cut it based on our HOA standards and it was sufficient, but I really wanted a little more cut off because the part over my drive-way had been annoying me. Walter could tell that I wanted something else done, so he asked. (I felt bad asking, because he had technically already cut the required amount.) But he was fine with cutting more off for me and didn't charge anything extra... As an added bonus, he also cleaned out my gutters while he was here. (He noticed them while walking the property looking at the sod.) This was something extra he did, he did not charge me any extra. I have a very small section of gutters, but they were pretty bad and had not been done in years, due to some medical issues that I have had. He was happy to help because he knows the importance of it. (even I know the damage that was bound to happen but there wasn't anything I could really do.) So from start to finish, I was pleasantly surprised with his willingness to go above and beyond. I highly recommend this company. And will also be having him do yard work for me in the future. (And pressure wash my house, because he does that also.)"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Seffner, 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.
