Why Dade City Chooses Murphy's Sod for Sod Installation

Serving a community of roughly 7,275 residents, we combine local expertise with quality materials and skilled crews to give your property results that hold up to Central Florida weather year after year.

Myakka / Candler fine sand and assigned-day watering decide whether sod takes
Deep, acidic, low-organic sands that drain fast and hold little nutrient — St. Augustine and Bahia establish here; cool-season turf does not. Median household income in Pasco County is about $63k (ACS 2022, county-level), so we spec St. Augustine or Bahia that can establish in sand inside Year-round conservation: lawn watering limited to assigned days, typically before 10 a.m. or after 4 p.m.
