Why Schools Are Replacing Natural-Grass Fields

Quick Answer

A natural-grass football field at a Georgia school requires $80,000–$150,000/year in maintenance (cutting, fertilizing, irrigation, reseeding) and is unplayable for 4–8 weeks of the fall season due to rain damage. A synthetic field plays 1,500+ hours/year vs. 600 hours for grass, costs $0–$8,000/year to maintain, and pays back in 6–9 years on a 15-year warranty.

Across Georgia school districts we've seen the same trajectory: Schools build a synthetic field for one varsity sport, the field gets used for 5–7 sports plus PE plus community rec, and the next field bond passes with synthetic as the default spec.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you certified to install athletic fields in Georgia?

Yes — we install under FieldTurf-equivalent specs with PE-stamped drawings and third-party G-max testing on completion. We coordinate with districts that have specific manufacturer requirements.

What's the warranty on a school field?

Manufacturer-backed 8–10 year yarn warranty + our 15-Year Platinum Promise on installation workmanship and base. Most fields play 12–15 years before resurface.

How does Davis-Bacon prevailing wage work?

We submit certified payroll weekly to the contracting agency. Our crews are structured to handle either DBA-compliant or standard wage projects.

Do you handle SPLOST-funded projects?

Yes — Georgia SPLOST and e-SPLOST procurement is one of our primary commercial channels. We work with district CFOs on phasing and cash-flow constraints.

Multi-sport lines — football + soccer + lacrosse?

Standard. We inlay yarn lines (not painted) in distinct colors for each sport. Inlaid lines last the life of the field; painted lines fade in 1–2 seasons.

Organic / non-rubber infill options?

Yes — Brockfill, walnut shell, or coconut-fiber infill systems available for districts that prefer to avoid crumb rubber. Cost premium roughly 10–18%.
