Synthetic Turf

Unfortunately droughts are a part of living in Texas. Water, it’s use and conservation is being discussed over the dinner table and over the political aisles. With watering costs on the climb, irrigation requirements and water restirictions being more difficult to comply with, now is the time to consider installing Artificial Turf. This product isn’t astro turf, it has come a long way in both appearance and feel. Being very versatile, you can use it for Dog Runs, Landscapes, Putting greens, pool surrounds, Commercial areas and much more.

Benefits: Artificial turf is an environmentally friendly product. It’s made from recycled material and uses water only for periodic cleaning. It cuts down water consumption, as well as water and air pollution by not needing the maintenance and fertilizing that comes with real grass.

Dog Runs: No Muddy Paws! You thought you loved your dog before, you’ll love Fido even more when he comes in with clean paws! It’s much easier to maintain than natural grass. No mowing, no weeding, no fertilizer, no dead spots – just green grass 24 / 7 / 365. It’s much more gentle on your dog’s feet than gravel or mulch.
