A beautiful lawn starts with the right foundation—and in Central Florida, that means choosing between natural sod, a reliable irrigation system, or modern artificial turf. At Murray Outdoor, we specialize in all three, helping homeowners and businesses in Clermont, Groveland, Minneola, Winter Garden, Windermere, Winter Park, The Villages, and surrounding areas achieve the perfect outdoor space.

Whether you want the lush look of fresh sod, the convenience of artificial turf, or the efficiency of a new irrigation system, our team provides expert installation and long-term solutions tailored to your property.


Why Sod Installation Is Popular in Central Florida

Sod remains the most popular choice for homeowners who want an instant, natural lawn. It provides immediate curb appeal, controls erosion, and offers a soft surface for outdoor living.

Murray Outdoor installs the top sod varieties for Florida lawns, including:

  • Provista St. Augustine – Dense, shade-tolerant, and low-maintenance.
  • Floratam St. Augustine – Hardy and drought-tolerant, perfect for full sun.
  • Zoysia – Soft texture, weed resistant, and family-friendly.
  • Bahia – Low-maintenance and cost-effective for large areas.
  • Bermuda – Durable, sun-loving grass for active yards.
  • Cobalt & Seville St. Augustine – Vibrant options with excellent shade and drought tolerance.

Fall is one of the best times to install sod in Central Florida, allowing new roots to establish before the intense summer heat returns.


The Importance of Irrigation for Sod and Landscaping

No matter how healthy your sod is when installed, it won’t thrive without a properly functioning irrigation system. Central Florida’s sandy soil drains quickly, and new sod requires frequent watering to develop strong roots.

Murray Outdoor provides irrigation system installation, repairs, and upgrades to keep your lawn looking its best. Benefits of a professional irrigation system include:

  • Even water distribution across your lawn.
  • Reduced risk of dry patches or overwatering.
  • Stronger, healthier root systems for new sod.
  • Lower utility bills thanks to efficient water use.
  • Peace of mind knowing your lawn is cared for year-round.

We inspect, repair, and adjust irrigation systems across Clermont, Minneola, Groveland, Winter Garden, Windermere, Winter Park, and The Villages.


Artificial Turf: A Low-Maintenance Alternative

While sod provides a natural look, artificial turf has become increasingly popular in Central Florida. It offers the beauty of a green lawn without the upkeep. Artificial turf is ideal for:

  • Homes with shaded yards where sod struggles to grow.
  • Busy families who want a low-maintenance option.
  • Pet owners seeking a clean, durable surface.
  • Commercial properties looking for year-round curb appeal.

Benefits of artificial turf include:

  • No mowing, watering, or fertilizing.
  • Always green, no matter the season.
  • Durable and long-lasting, even in high-traffic areas.
  • Cost savings over time on lawn care and irrigation.

Murray Outdoor installs high-quality turf for residential and commercial properties, ensuring a flawless finish every time.


Which Lawn Solution Is Right for You?

  • Choose sod if you want a natural lawn and don’t mind regular maintenance.
  • Choose irrigation upgrades if you already have sod or landscaping and want to keep it healthy year-round.
  • Choose artificial turf if you want a low-maintenance, evergreen solution.

Many of our clients combine services—for example, installing fresh sod in the front yard with irrigation and using artificial turf in shaded areas or backyards for pets and kids.
