This system replicates natural drainage, keeping your lawn dry and durable even after heavy rain, while minimizing maintenance and protecting your landscape investment.

A: At Turtle Landscape Co., we take a thorough approach to installing artificial turf, ensuring a long-lasting, natural-looking lawn that enhances your outdoor space. First, we evaluate the site, checking drainage, soil conditions, and your layout preferences. Next, we remove the existing grass and debris, then grade and compact the soil and add in an aggregate with compaction to form a stable base. We install a weed barrier to prevent any future growth under the turf. We then lay down and secure high-quality synthetic turf, making precise cuts and joints for a seamless look. Lastly, we add infill materials to give the turf weight and improve its durability, and we clean up the area. This leaves you with a beautiful, low-maintenance lawn you can enjoy all year round.
