Built for acreage-scale lawns.
The Acreage is an unincorporated community of about 41,700 residents (2020) north of Royal Palm Beach and Wellington, laid out in the 1960s as 1.25-acre lots. Most homes are on private wells and septic, many roads are unpaved, and horses are common.
Acreage-scale installs
A 1.25-acre lot is a different project from a suburban yard. We plan pallet counts, staging and access for large areas and unpaved roads.
Drainage-aware prep
Yards here drain to swales and canals. We grade so new sod sheds water toward the swale instead of pooling around the house pad.
Grass for the use
Full-sun lawns, pastures and paddocks need different grasses. Bermuda handles hooves and heavy use; St. Augustine and Zoysia suit the yard around the house.
Guided after-care
Watering guidance built around your well and irrigation through the establishment window.
What The Acreage lawns actually deal with
The Acreage is flat, low-lying and mostly on wells. Drainage, full sun and well water shape every install.
Swales, canals and summer flooding
The Indian Trail Improvement District manages the canals and swales the neighborhood drains into, and heavy storms can leave yards under water. We check grade so new sod isn’t sitting in standing water — see lawn drainage issues.
Wells and iron staining
Most homes irrigate from private wells. Iron in well water can leave orange stains on driveways, walls and walkways; the Florida Department of Health recommends testing private wells every year. We plan irrigation guidance around well capacity.
Horses and heavy use
For paddocks and high-traffic areas, Bermuda recovers from wear far better than St. Augustine. See why Bermuda suits equestrian properties.
Open, full-sun lots
Wide-open lots get sun all day. Floratam St. Augustine and Bermuda thrive in it; sunny St. Augustine also needs an eye on chinch bugs.
Storm and flood recovery
Hurricanes and severe storms have hit The Acreage repeatedly. After flood damage, we assess what can be saved, regrade where needed and replace only what failed.

FAQs from The Acreage homeowners
The questions we hear most about The Acreage properties. Anything not covered here gets addressed during the on-site assessment.
Can you sod an entire 1.25-acre lot?
Yes. Large installs are planned around pallet counts, delivery access on unpaved roads and staging so the sod goes down fresh the same day it is cut.
What grass is best for a horse paddock?
My yard floods after heavy rain. Will new sod survive?
Sod drowns in standing water, so drainage comes first. We check how your yard drains to the swale and correct the grade where we can before installing.
Can I water new sod from my well?
Usually, yes. New sod needs frequent watering for two to three weeks, so we check that your well and irrigation can keep up. See our new sod watering schedule.
When is the best time of year to install?
South Florida sod can establish year-round. Spring through early fall is the most active rooting window; cooler-month installs are absolutely fine and simply root more slowly.
Are you licensed and insured in Palm Beach County?
Yes. Licensed and insured for Palm Beach County, with current certificates available on request — often required by associations and gated communities. More about who we are.
