Bahia sod is a tough, deep-rooted grass first used as pasture on the sandy soils of the Southeast. The UF/IFAS Extension calls it a low-maintenance lawn grass that does well on limited water and fertilizer. It is a good choice for large lots and for yards with no irrigation system. It makes a more open lawn than St. Augustine or Zoysia, with less upkeep.
GBS Sod and Landscape is based in Ormond Beach and serves Volusia and Flagler counties. We sell fresh-cut, Florida-grown Argentine Bahia sod by the pallet, for pickup or delivery. Our crew also handles sod installation around Ormond Beach, from tear-out to the first watering. Call or text (386) 238-9215 for a free quote.

UF/IFAS compares the Bahia types grown in Florida. Pensacola is the most widely grown Bahia in pastures. It puts up more seed heads than Argentine, so it suits roadsides better than yards.
Argentine Bahia forms a fairly dense sod with a dark green color, and its blades are wider than Pensacola's. Its seed heads are still tall, but slightly shorter and sparser. UF/IFAS says Argentine is usually preferred for lawns, and it is the Bahia we sell.
Argentine has good insect and disease resistance, and it handles cold well. The trade-off is color: it fades sooner than Pensacola when the weather cools.
UF/IFAS lists acid, sandy soil as the ground Bahia likes best. Its deep roots carry it through dry spells. On average, April is the driest month at Daytona Beach, per NOAA. Bahia also stands up to nematodes, tiny worms that feed on grass roots in moist sand.
That suits big lots and back acreage, where watering every corner is hard. Palm Coast even asks for Bahia by name. The city's permit pages say a front yard swale, if disturbed, is to be sodded with Bahia grass.
Bahia has a weak spot near the ocean: UF/IFAS rates its salt tolerance very poor. Beachside lots that catch salt spray along A1A do better with St. Augustine sod or Zoysia. Its shade tolerance is only fair, and it wears thin under heavy foot traffic. For a play yard or a dog run, Bermuda sod takes the wear better.
Bahia sod is sold by the pallet, so measure the area before you order. We deliver to homes, and pickup is available: call for the yard location. See how sod delivery works for pallet counts and ground prep.
Bahia slabs often hold together less tightly than other sod, the extension service notes. Pieces that break apart still take root in time. On an install, our crew tears out the old grass and weeds and grades the ground. Then the Bahia goes down and gets watered in.
New Bahia sod needs a few weeks to root. UF/IFAS says the roots usually grip the soil 14 to 21 days after planting. Tug on a corner: once the sod will not lift, the roots have taken hold.

My experience was excellent. Cesar was punctual and did an outstanding job installing a stone retaining wall in the front of my house. He completed the job in a very professional manner. He takes pride in his work and the finished product is beautiful. I would recommend Cesar and GBS Sod and Landscape to anyone who needs a retaining wall installed.
Caesar and Hugo did an awesome job in getting my front and backyard looking beautiful. They stripped my backyard and my front yard, put in new irrigation, border paving, weed block, seashell, along with new sod. My beach house now looks like something that belongs in a magazine. I can’t thank them enough for what they have done for me. GBS sod landscaping was fair priced, worked on time, and completed my job in a very quick time. I highly recommend GBS Sod and Landscaping for all your yard needs.
