Questions we hear a lot
Frequently asked questions.
Straight answers about turf cost, lifespan, maintenance, pets, install process, and putting greens. If yours is not here, call us.
Maintenance
Will there be any maintenance?
Unlike natural grass, our synthetic turf requires zero mowing or watering. We recommend occasionally rinsing off dust and using a leaf blower to remove debris. For pet owners, a quick spray with an enzyme cleaner a few times a year keeps everything fresh.
How much does it cost to maintain artificial turf annually?
For most residential yards in Aledo or Southlake, annual maintenance runs roughly $75 to $175. That typically covers an occasional rinse and a small amount of infill top-off for higher-traffic areas.
Cost & Financing
What does artificial turf cost?
Most residential installs run $8 to $9 per square foot depending on size and product. Custom putting greens run $10 to $12 per square foot because they need precision grading and specialized turf.
How much will I save on my water bill?
North Texas homeowners typically see a 40 to 60 percent reduction in monthly water bills after switching to artificial turf. Over the 15 to 20 year lifespan of the product, those savings usually more than double the install cost.
Do you provide financing?
Yes. We offer several financing programs so you can invest in your yard without a large upfront cost. Financing does not affect the install price.
Are there hidden costs for repairs down the road?
No. Our turf systems are UV-stabilized and built for the Texas sun, so they will not become brittle or fade under normal use. The only repair cost would be for physical damage like fire or sharp equipment.
Heat, Pets & Safety
Is artificial turf hot?
In direct sun, turf can get warm. We mitigate this with specialized cooling infills that keep the surface up to 20 percent cooler than standard infill, making it comfortable for bare feet and pet paws.
Will it smell if I have dogs?
Not with our system. We use high-flow drainage backing combined with antimicrobial infill, which prevents odor buildup and keeps the yard clean for pets.
Is turf safe for dogs or kids?
Yes. Artificial turf is used in dog parks and playgrounds across the country. Our playground installs use IPEMA-certified fall-height protection and 100 percent lead-free materials.
Install & Lifespan
How do you install artificial turf?
We remove existing sod and up to five inches of dirt, bring in a compactable base that drains, install a 15-year weed barrier, lay and secure the turf, then add infill, brush, and clean. A proper base is what makes a turf install last.
How long does it take to install?
Most residential installs take a few days to a full week depending on yard size and complexity. Full field conversions run longer and get a custom timeline.
How long does artificial turf last?
Our premium turf is rated for 15 to 20 years and backed by a 15-year product warranty plus a 1-year installation warranty. UV-stabilized fibers hold up to the North Texas sun without fading or cracking.
How do I estimate square footage?
Give us a call and we will come measure it for you. Free on-site consultations across Parker, Tarrant, Collin, and Wise Counties.
Putting Greens & Specialty
Do you install backyard putting greens?
Yes. We specialize in custom backyard putting greens using professional-grade synthetic turf. We customize stimp speed and fringe to match your playing style, with true tour-quality ball roll.
Why are putting greens more expensive per square foot?
Custom greens need precision grading, specialized turf, and careful finishing to get the right ball response. The materials and labor per square foot are higher than a standard residential lawn install.
What about a 25-year warranty I have seen advertised?
We have heard that claim and it is the first we have come across. We talk to a lot of turf suppliers and a 25-year warranty is not something we have found. We stand behind a 15-year product warranty and a 1-year installation warranty, and we mean it.
Should we keep our sprinklers?
You can, but you do not have to. Turf does not need watering. Some customers keep their system on a reduced schedule to water the foundation of the house, which is common in North Texas, but that is optional.
