Paver Installation
We lay paver patios, walkways, pool decks and fire pit surrounds in concrete pavers or travertine. Every job starts with a graded, compacted base under a screeded sand bed.

Flagler Beach runs from the ocean along A1A west across the Intracoastal Waterway. Near the ocean, USDA soil maps show Palm Beach gravelly sand, which drains fast, and salt spray rides the wind. Toward the Intracoastal, the same maps show pockets of very poorly drained ground that stay wet after a storm. On either side, a tired lawn goes thin and patchy, and weeds fill the gaps.
GBS Sod and Landscape is based in Ormond Beach, and Flagler Beach is part of our service area. Sod installation in Flagler Beach follows the same steps as our sod installation in Ormond Beach. We rip out the old grass and weeds, grade the ground, lay fresh-cut sod and water it in. Call or text (386) 238-9215 for a free quote.

Salt is the first thing to plan for on a lot near the ocean. The UF/IFAS Extension lists salt spray from the ocean as one cause of salt stress in coastal lawns. Its turfgrass guide rates St. Augustine and Zoysia as good on salt. It rates Bahia as very poor.
That makes St. Augustine sod a strong fit near the beach, and it takes more shade than Bermuda. Zoysia also makes a dense lawn that needs less mowing. Bermuda rates good on salt too, but it wants full sun. Bahia does better on open, dry ground away from the surf.
Many Flagler Beach streets drain through grassed swales in the city right-of-way. Rain runs down the swale into a storm drain, then out to the Intracoastal or a retention pond. A valve keeps Intracoastal water from backing up into the pipes. The city says that when heavy rain meets a high tide, water can stand in the swales longer.
If water stands in a swale more than 72 hours, the city asks you to call Public Works. Water that collects against the house is a different problem. It often means the yard slopes the wrong way.
Our grading and drainage work reshapes that slope before new sod goes down. Low spots get fill dirt and a new grade. The goal is rain moving toward the street swale and away from the house.
Flagler Beach sits inside the St. Johns River Water Management District, which sets lawn watering rules. In 2026 the district put Flagler County under a Phase III water shortage order. Under that order, lawns get one watering day a week. Watering between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. is not allowed.
New sod gets its own schedule. It may be watered daily for the first 15 days, then up to three days a week for 30 days. The final 15 days allow two days a week.
Our after-care advice: water every morning for the first two weeks, and mow 3 to 5 weeks after install. Under the order, that morning watering has to finish before 8 a.m. Rules change, so check the district's current order before you set the controller.
Flagler Beach is a small city on about 3.5 square miles of land. It had 5,160 people at the 2020 Census, and the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate is about 5,600.
Census Bureau survey figures put the median home's build year at 1985. More than half of the homes went up in the 1970s and 1980s. About 22 percent date from 2000 or later. Older yards often need the old turf and roots cleared out before new sod can take hold.
Beyond the lawn, we build paver patios and walkways and refresh tired beds with rock and mulch. We also clear out overgrown yards and haul off the job's debris before new sod or new beds go in.

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.
Wonderful experience working with GBS sod and landscaping !They installed new Sod, pavers and irrigation system in our yard after we had to put in a new septic system. Front yard looks amazing. Highly recommend.
I cannot recommend GBS enough! I've had recurring issues with water pooling under my stillt house, From the moment I called, their communication was fantastic. Caesar (owner) diagnosed the issues, and efficiently fixed the problem by installing new drainage pipes and grates. The GBS Crew worked tirelessly removing a lot of old mulch and dirt replacing with stone. Courteous and honest with upfront pricing. If you need reliable, high-quality irrigation and landscape work in Florida, this is the business to call!
We used GBS to clear out a section of our yard, remove dying plants, replace top soil and place new sod. Cesar and his crew were very timely, meticulous and responsive to our needs. Thank you for a great job and we highly recommend them
Ordered 7 pallets of sod for delivery. Everything went smooth and the sod looks great!! Will definitely do business with again and highly recommend!
