Turf Drainage & Base Prep β€” What to Know

Our approach to turf drainage and base prep is foundational to every successful artificial grass installation, especially here where the soil can be tricky. First, we meticulously excavate the area, removing existing grass and debris. This crucial step is followed by establishing the perfect grade to encourage optimal water runoff, preventing puddling even during significant rainfall. Next comes the 'heart' of our system: the sub-base. We use a compacted layer of crushed aggregate, specifically chosen for its excellent drainage properties and stability. This acts as a robust foundation, preventing shifting or settling over time. For areas with particularly dense Georgia clay turf base, we may implement additional measures to ensure superior percolation. Finally, a fine layer of decomposed granite or similar material is applied and compacted, creating a perfectly smooth, stable surface ready for the turf. For pet owners in Ramer, our pet turf drainage systems include specialized infills and perforated backing to manage pet waste fluids effectively, eliminating odors and keeping your yard fresh.
