Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about sod installation.
How often should I water new sod?
Water the new sod two to three times daily for the first two weeks, keeping the turf and soil moist. Reduce to once daily during weeks three and four. After 30 days, transition to your regular irrigation schedule.
When can I mow after sod installation?
Wait 10 to 14 days before the first mowing. Set your mower to the highest setting and remove no more than one-third of the blade height.
What time of year is best for installing sod in Central Florida?
Spring through early summer provides ideal conditions. St. Augustine and Zoysia can often be installed in fall in Central Florida, especially earlier in the season. We install year-round but recommend avoiding the coldest winter weeks.
