Artificialturfquestions,answered.

Straight answers about choosing, buying, installing and caring for synthetic grass.

Do you sell artificial turf online?

Not any more. Turf is priced by the project, so we quote every order personally. Call us at (832) 692-5564 or send a quote request with your square footage, and we’ll price turf, infill, supplies and installation for you.

What kinds of artificial turf are there?

Artificial grass is made from plastic polymers, and the material affects how realistic it looks, how durable and thick it is, and what it costs. Nylon is the stiffest, most durable and most expensive (it was used for the original AstroTurf in the Houston Astrodome). Polyethylene (PE) is the most popular for landscapes because it is durable and has a natural look and feel. Polypropylene (PP) is less expensive and thinner, and is often used for thatch layers and putting greens.

Is artificial grass popular?

Yes. Americans spend billions of dollars a year on artificial grass, and demand keeps growing as homeowners, businesses and cities look for ways to save water and cut maintenance, especially in drought-prone areas like Central Texas.

Is your turf safe for kids and pets?

Yes. We are committed to providing certified safe products that are guaranteed to be lead-free. For pet areas we recommend a permeable backing, weed barrier and an antimicrobial infill such as Envirofill to control odors.

Can I pick up turf from the store?

Yes. Many orders are ready for same-day pickup at our store at 7072 US-290 W in Dripping Springs, and our team will help you load your truck. Call ahead so we can have your rolls cut and ready.

Do you deliver, and do you install?

We coordinate freight delivery to your site, and our professional installation crews handle residential and commercial projects where available. In areas our crews don’t yet cover, we supply DIY customers with installation instructions and a full line of installation supplies.

How do I keep artificial turf clean?

Blow or rake off leaves and debris with a plastic-bristle rake (metal bristles can damage the blades). Rinse the turf weekly to wash away dust and pollen and keep infill evenly spread. For pets, pick up solid waste, hose down the area and rinse weekly to prevent odors.

How long does artificial turf last?

Quality synthetic turf typically lasts 15 to 20 years with basic care. Our landscape turfs carry warranties of 8 to 15 years depending on the product.

What supplies do I need for a DIY install?

Most installs need weed barrier, seam tape and turf adhesive for joins, landscape nails, nailer board for the edges, and an infill such as silica sand or Envirofill. Pet, rooftop and playground areas may also need drain tiles or a foam shock pad. We stock all of it and can put together a complete list for your project.
