Yes, We Install Real Grass Too
We know. The artificial turf company installing real grass. Some yards, HOAs and budgets call for the real thing, and when they do, we install it the right way: proper prep, fresh-cut sod and a lawn that's green from day one.
Real Grass. No Judgment.
We'll be the first to tell you turf wins on water, mowing and muddy dogs. But we'd rather you get the right lawn than the wrong sale. Real sod makes sense when:
Your HOA says so
Some communities still require living grass out front. Rules are rules. We'll make it look great anyway.
You're getting ready to sell
Fresh sod is one of the fastest ways to boost curb appeal before the listing photos.
You actually enjoy mowing
Some people find Saturday mowing relaxing. We respect that. We just don't understand it.
Big areas, practical budget
Large open lots, side yards and back acreage where real grass is the practical call.
The best-of-both yard
Turf where the dogs play and the grass keeps dying, real sod everywhere else. Everybody wins.
New construction
Builders and GCs who need a lot finished, green and ready for closing.
Pick Your Grass
Four real-grass options that actually like Florida. We'll help you pick the right one for your sun, soil and lifestyle.
St. Augustine
The Southwest Florida classic. Thick, lush blades that handle heat, humidity and some shade.
Zoysia
Dense and soft underfoot with a premium, carpet-like look. Holds up well to foot traffic.
Bahia
Tough, drought tolerant and budget friendly. A smart pick for large open areas and acreage.
Bermuda
The golf course and sports field grass. Fine texture, loves full sun, bounces back fast from wear. Also loves being mowed. A lot.
Real Sod, Real Jobs
From bare dirt and pallets to a finished lawn. Yes, these are ours. No, none of it is plastic.
How We Install Real Sod
Same standards we bring to every turf install. Sod only looks as good as the ground under it.
Out with the old
Dead grass, weeds and roots stripped out so the new lawn starts clean.
Grade & prep the soil
Leveled and graded for drainage, with the soil prepped so the roots can take hold.
Sprinkler check
We check your irrigation coverage before a single piece goes down. Real grass needs real water. (Turf doesn't. Just saying.)
Fresh-cut sod, laid tight
Fresh sod with staggered seams, cut clean around beds, borders and pavers.
Rolled & watered in
Rolled for good soil contact, watered in, and handed off with a simple care plan for the first few weeks.
Real Sod vs. Artificial Turf
An honest side-by-side from a company that installs both.
Real sod
Lower cost up front. Cool underfoot. Smells like a fresh-cut lawn. Needs regular water, mowing, fertilizer and pest control, and may have strong opinions about your dog.
Artificial turf
Higher cost up front. Green 365 days a year. No mowing, no watering, no mud. Pet-friendly. Your Saturdays are free. See artificial lawns
Can't decide?
Do both. We'll design a yard with real grass where it thrives and turf where it doesn't, and install the whole thing in one project.
Real Sod FAQs
Wait, don't you sell fake grass?
We do, and we love it. But not every yard, HOA or budget is a turf yard. We'd rather install the right lawn than lose you to the wrong one.
Can you do real sod and artificial turf in the same yard?
Absolutely. A lot of our clients put turf where the dogs play and the grass keeps dying, and real sod everywhere else.
How soon can we walk on new sod?
Keep traffic light for the first couple of weeks while the roots grab hold. After that, it's all yours.
How much should I water new sod?
Often at first, then less as it roots in. We leave you a simple watering schedule so you're not guessing.
Do you install sod for builders, HOAs and property managers?
Yes. We handle new construction lots, HOA common areas and commercial properties across Southwest Florida and Miami.
