Installed estimate uses Yard Works pricing: St. Augustine (ProVista, Seville, Palmetto, Floratam) $2.00/sq ft and CitraZoy or Empire Zoysia $2.15/sq ft, installed — sod, installation and old-turf removal included. Zeon, Geo, Palisades and CitraBlue are quoted on site. Minimum job: about 400 sq ft (one pallet) for Zoysia, about 500 sq ft for St. Augustine. Every install is covered by our 60-day establishment program. Final price is confirmed after an on-site measurement.
Accurate sod starts with accurate measuring. Break the lawn into rectangles, measure each in feet, and add them up — then let the calculator handle pallets and cost.
Worked example: a 50 × 40 ft front lawn is 2,000 sq ft. Add 5% for cuts and you order 2,100 sq ft. For zoysia, 2,100 ÷ 400 = 5.25, so round up to 6 pallets; for St. Augustine, 2,100 ÷ 500 = 4.2, so 5 pallets.
Sod is sold by the pallet, and a pallet covers roughly 500 square feet of St. Augustine or 400 square feet of zoysia, depending on the farm. Healthy living soil underneath is what makes new sod take — so every Yard Works install includes proper bed prep, not just laying turf on hard ground. Healthy lawns and landscapes do not exist without healthy living soil.
