"Up in CDD 10" which makes me believe you are south of 44. South of 44 the St Augistine is "Provista" which is prone to Take all Patch unless treated properly with the correct fungicide, trace elements, and you keep the ph low. All the more reason you should replace it. I've had good luck with the Flortan variety of St. Augistine but if you don't want St. Augistine you can go with Zoysia. You'll have more problems with the St.A from next door moving into your Zoysia. Check your deed restrictions.
