S & J Sod Service said, "We tell you in our estimates how much sod is required and how much sod is put down. We pay for the sod by the pallet and so do you. That means if it takes 6 pallets of sod to do your lawn you pay for 6 pallets of sod. If it only takes 5 pallets of sod you pay for 5 pallets of sod! There is no hiding the quantity or square foot calculated in your estimate! They are given to you to compare with the areas marked and covered.".

Land Impressions said, "Compare these sod installation prices with other sod companies. Make sure they include in their sod services taking a soil sample, applying nutrients needed, killing lawn weeds, tilling the soil and installing quality sod grass".

Roundtree Sod Services said, "Grass is sold by the pallet. A pallet usually consists of 500 square feet of sod. To find the number of pallets required for the area, measure desired area (length and width in feet). Multiply the width times the length and then divide by 500. This will give you the number of pallets required".

We Sod Jacksonville said, "Providing new sod with the best growing environment allows the sod to become a healthy lawn. Tilling the soil allows sod roots to become strong, healthy and eventually your established lawn".
