Frequently Asked Questions
Why would I choose turf over real grass?
Artificial turf requires little to no maintenance, saves money on water bills, and stays green year-round. It’s durable, pet-friendly, and ideal for busy families who don’t have time for constant lawn care. Turf also does not require heavy usage of chemicals and other fertilizers to keep the area looking clean and green.
Do I have to water the turf?
It’s a good idea to maintain a sprinkler system if you have pets to wash away urine and other debris. Even though turf doesn’t need watering, keeping the area clean is essential, and water helps remove unwanted odors and bacteria.
Does turf get hot?
Yes and No. Turf is made from a monofilament and can increase in temperature when exposed to heavy direct sunlight. However, there are methods to reduce the temperatures such as Envirofill silica sand and specific blade shapes that help deflect the sun’s rays. In Texas there are only a few months of the year where turf can be hot.
Are all turfs created equal?
Not at all. There are numerous turf manufacturers worldwide, and the best choice depends on your site’s specific needs. For instance, synthetic turf is mainly produced in China and the United States. While turf from China might be more affordable, it often uses lower-quality materials, which can cause issues over time.
How much do putting greens typically cost?
The cost of putting greens can vary depending on the project's complexity. Our team of experts customizes each bid to match the homeowner's specific requirements. Whether it's a simple putting green for beginners or a professional-style setup with bunkers and PGA approved turf, we can create a solution that fits your needs.
How long does turf last?
Turf typically comes with a warranty of 15-20 years, depending on the manufacturer. Our turf is designed to last 20 years for residential use and 8 years for commercial applications. We advise homeowners to keep the turf clean of dog waste and other debris to maintain its quality. While turf is low maintenance, it’s not completely maintenance-free.
Does turf need maintenance?
Yes it does! In our turf jobs, we sell a maintenance package to help alleviate and soothe those concerns about wear and tear. Turf that is frequently used or experiences a lot of debris, needs ongoing maintenance. Turf is extremely resilient and can bounce back even when it may look worn out. Ask about our maintenance plans to learn more.
Can turf increase your property value?
Yes it can. In our day in age, there are many families with an overloaded schedule and maintaining a lawn can be taxing. We have helped many builders and homeowners improve their close rate on homes by 25% in our experience. Turf opens doors and allows for more buyers to see the potential of a space.
