Turf Drainage & Base Prep — What to Know

Our turf drainage and base prep process starts with a thorough assessment of your Guild property's existing conditions, including soil type and natural grading. If we're dealing with that notorious Georgia clay turf base, we take extra measures to ensure optimal percolation and stability. This often involves excavating the area, installing a robust geotextile fabric to separate the base from the native soil, and then laying down multiple layers of compacted aggregate. This aggregate base is meticulously sloped to facilitate efficient turf drainage, directing water away from structures and preventing accumulation. For pet turf drainage, we incorporate specialized infill materials and often utilize a perforated backing on the turf itself, coupled with an enhanced sub-base drainage system to manage waste effectively. The goal is a permeable, stable, and long-lasting foundation that can handle Guild's heavy rainfalls, resist shifting due to ground movement, and provide a perfectly smooth surface for your artificial grass, ensuring years of enjoyment without maintenance headaches.
