Great company and service. We were given detailed instructions on both pre and post sod installation, the sod was delivered as promised and looks great.

I am a repeat customer…picking up some perennial peanut to finish my front yard this week. Planted in June of last year, and I had complete coverage by the time the cooler weather set in.

Delivered right to our home. Our grass was horrible, we put in St Augustine from the farm, yard looks fantastic. We will never go anywhere else for Sod. Great people, great product, great prices!!!!

Hello Travis, I have been struggling with the fight between St Augustine Floratam and some funky Bermuda and Bahia for too many years here on the south shore of Tampa Bay. Your suggestion to use the perennial peanut it the backyard for a native scape approach is incredible and the new celebration lawn in front is keeping my neighbors VERY happy!

I will send you some pics as soon as my computer skills get up to par!

Travis,
Here are a few photos of my lawn project. I researched for weeks the finest lawn sod available in the state and selected Empire Turf for its outstanding attributes. The lawn has exceeded my expectations for lush soft blades and low maintenance. Like no other Florida grass, the Empire Turf is always a pleasant treat to walk barefoot on.

I bought your Empire Turf about 9 months ago and couldn’t be happier with the product, it came in strong and lush. I saw your commercial today on cable and thought I would write. I would certainly vouch for your product, it’s doing fine in Palm Harbor FL.
Thanks & Happy New Year,

Greg U. – Palm Harbor, FL
