FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why should you select artificial turf for your property?

What was once a messy and, at times, useless area can become the perfect place for entertaining adults, kids and pets – rain or shine – with no cleanup needed. From public parks, schools, businesses, and homes, the advantages of artificial turf are endless.

​

How much does artificial turf cost?

  • When considering the costs of maintenance for a natural lawn, upgrading to artificial turf will save you money over the lifetime of the product. Aside from being an asset that raises the value of your property, artificial turf lasts several years and thus saves you money on monthly water and maintenance bills. Artificial turf helps to save approximately 65% of your household water bill each month.

 

How does artificial turf do with pets?

  • Artificial turf has been constantly developing since it was first installed in Houston for The Astros Baseball Stadium in 1966. One of the largest areas of growth has been focused on the pet community. Whether it’s being used at a large animal shelter or in your own backyard, artificial turf is the perfect, safe surface for all household pets to enjoy.

​

How does artificial turf do with kids?

  • Children love artificial turf because it looks and feels like real grass without the dirt and mud that parents and teachers hate. It is great for playgrounds and parks with high traffic, as well as family and friends to enjoy in the backyard. The only problem with turf will be getting the kids inside once they experience what they have been missing.

​

What kind of maintenance does it require?

  • Artificial turf is a low-maintenance product.

​

  • Keep debris off of the turf using a leaf blower or plastic rake. You want to reduce any unwanted materials or debris from settling into the sand infill.

​

  • No water is required, but rinsing off turf is highly suggested with pets and/or during summer/dry months.

​

  • Turf will not fade in coloring. (Be sure to use a chemical-safe product or water when cleaning. No pressure washing.)

​

Does artificial turf get hot?

  • In direct sunlight on warmer days, yes, turf will get hot like concrete patios or decks. However, with a light mist from the hose, it will instantly cool and be ready for bare feet and paws. ​
