"Contractor was over 2 hours late starting every day (momma needed her coffee), was not properly equipped (We provided wheelbarrow, post hole digger, shovel, loppers, garden rake, etc.). Contractor's labor was a 70 +/- small man and the owner's wife (who did NOT want to do this type of work and let it be known). The contractor also damaged the owners septic tank by positioning his tractor on top of the septic tank and causing 2/3 of the septic tank lid (along with the covering dirt to collapse into the tank The contractor was shown the septic system before quoting the work and warned to avoid the septic before starting work. The replacement lids sections cost the owner $1,200.00. When the county inspector inspects the system, it will require replacement of the entire system at a cost of over $15.000.00. The contractor also drove his tractor into the neighbors yard causing several deep impressions in their yard and damaging their septic system. Due to the late start each day, lack of equipment and inadequate labor, many shortcuts were taken. The plants were simply thrown in a hole without the soil being compacted around the roots. Only about half of the dirt was spread with many piles of dirt not spread and left piled all over the yard. The contractor left the job site after dark on 10-15-2024 and promised to return the following week to complete the work. Which he did not do. The following week was the same result He has not returned and after many calls, I ask him not to return. We have replaced 4 of the new shrubs (Costing about $60) which have died in spite of frequent watering As per Angi's List, the contractor is licensed and insured and was rated 5 Star on Angi's List. I have repeatedly tried to obtain insurance information from both the contractor and Angi's List without success."

"She contracted with them to replace. Original estimate was around 15k. By the time they were done, she had dropped over $40k into it! And most recently they came and told her they thought it was still leaking! Also, it took about 8 months to fix! These people ripped her off!"

FAQs for sod installation projects in Wacissa, 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.
