Sod Installation FAQ
It depends on the size of the site. Most residential installations take one to two days, and we’ll give you a timeline for larger commercial projects with your quote.
Sod can be installed at any time of year in Tampa, but the cooler months of spring and fall are best. That gives the sod time to root before the summer heat.
Wait at least two weeks before heavy use. That lets the sod establish strong roots and keeps it in place.
Water new sod daily for the first four weeks. After that, cut back to two or three times a week depending on the weather, and eventually wind down to twice a week.
Clear the area of debris, rocks and weeds, and amend the soil with compost or fertilizer if needed. We can help you plan site prep when you request your quote.
