Jacksonville sod installation FAQs
How much area does one pallet cover?
Coverage depends on the supplier and sod variety. Your estimate will use the current pallet coverage for the selected grass.
How soon can new sod be mowed?
Wait until roots begin anchoring and the lawn is firm enough for equipment without shifting pieces or leaving ruts.
Does new sod need daily watering?
Newly installed sod generally needs frequent moisture at first, followed by a gradual reduction as roots establish. Instructions vary with weather, soil, shade, and irrigation coverage.
