Zero Down — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your dog's been tearing up the backyard again, and honestly, you're tired of the mud. Here in Augusta—whether you're in Summerville, Forest Hills, or over near Olde Town—a lot of homeowners are dealing with the same problem. Our sandhill soil drains better than what folks deal with down in Atlanta, but that doesn't mean your grass stays intact when you've got a four-legged friend using your yard as their personal playground. That's where pet turf comes in. It's not the fake grass your neighbor had installed in 2003. Modern artificial turf for pets is built tough, designed to handle claws and constant use, and it stays green year-round without the chemicals that can bother your dog's paws. We've installed plenty of pet yards across the Augusta area—from modest lots in West Augusta to bigger properties closer to Fort Eisenhower—and the feedback is always the same: dogs love it, owners love the maintenance-free cleanup, and your yard actually looks like a yard again instead of a dust bowl. If you're serious about getting your outdoor space back, let's talk about what pet turf can do for your home.
Augusta's sandhill region gives you some natural advantages when it comes to drainage—our loamy, sandy soil over clay actually perks water through better than heavier clay bases you see elsewhere in Georgia. That's good news for pet turf installation because you don't have to worry about standing water issues as much as other areas might. That said, the sun exposure varies pretty widely depending on which neighborhood you're in. Properties in Forest Hills tend to get solid afternoon sun, while some of the older, tree-lined streets in Olde Town stay shadier. We design the base prep accordingly—better drainage layers for full-sun yards, different compaction for shaded areas where moss or algae could become a problem. One thing we always check: HOA rules. Several communities around Augusta have landscape guidelines, so we make sure your pet turf installation meets those requirements before we break ground. Most residential yards here run between 3,000 and 8,000 square feet, which is plenty of space for a dog to run without turning into a mud pit. Installation typically takes two to three days depending on lot size and how much old turf or prep work is needed.
Yes—we use turf specifically engineered for pet use. It has a reinforced backing and denser blade construction than standard artificial grass. Dogs' claws won't pull it up, and even heavy diggers don't tear through the backing. In Augusta, we've installed pet turf in yards where dogs are outside most of the day, and it's held up for years without seam separation or bald spots.
Not the way you might think. Pet turf is designed with cooling technology—it doesn't absorb and retain heat like some cheaper artificial grass does. During hot Augusta days, your dog can still be comfortable. We always recommend shade structures nearby, just like you would with natural grass, but the turf itself won't burn paws.
Drainage is critical with pet turf, and honestly, Augusta's sandhill soil helps us here. We install a sub-base layer that lets urine drain completely instead of pooling. There's no smell buildup because liquid moves through, not into the turf fibers. Occasional rinsing with the hose keeps it fresh, and that's honestly it for maintenance.
Absolutely. We work with HOA guidelines in Forest Hills, Summerville, and other Augusta communities regularly. Most HOAs approve pet turf because it looks maintained and green year-round—way better than a torn-up natural lawn. We'll review your community's rules upfront so there are no surprises.
