Professional Sod Installation in South Florida
Florida Sod Suppliers provides fresh sod delivery and professional installation throughout Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County.
Our standard installation is simple: the sod is delivered first, then our installers arrive afterward to cut existing grass down when needed, rake the existing dirt smooth and lay the fresh sod.

Standard Installation
What Our Installers Actually Do
The fresh sod is delivered to your property first. Our installation crew arrives afterward.
If existing grass is present, the crew uses a weed cutter to cut the grass down to ground level. The existing dirt is then raked to create a smoother surface before the fresh sod is installed.
