Cat Safe — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Ball Ground homeowners who want a pristine pool area without the hassle of constant maintenance have been turning to artificial turf for good reason. Your backyard is supposed to be a retreat—a place where you can relax poolside without worrying about muddy paw prints, dead grass patches, or spending every weekend with a mower. That's where pool turf comes in. Unlike natural grass, which struggles with the heavy foot traffic and chlorine splash-back that come with pool living, synthetic turf stays green, soft, and safe year-round. We've installed dozens of pool surrounds throughout Cherokee County, and we understand the unique challenges that come with Ball Ground's clay-heavy soil and our region's humidity patterns. Your pool deck doesn't just need to look good—it needs to drain properly, stay comfortable underfoot, and hold up to the specific wear patterns of a busy outdoor living space. Whether you're in the Downtown Ball Ground area or further out in the rural-suburban transition zones near Etowah River access, we can design a pool turf solution that fits your exact landscape and lifestyle.
Ball Ground sits in North Cherokee County, which means you're dealing with that characteristic red clay soil that doesn't always play nice with natural grass. That clay compacts easily, which actually works in your favor for pool turf installation—it gives us a stable base for proper drainage. The real consideration isn't the soil itself, but water management around your pool deck. Our synthetic turf is engineered to shed chlorinated water quickly, preventing puddles and that chlorine odor that can linger in natural grass. Sun exposure varies significantly depending on where your property sits relative to the tree lines along the Etowah River corridor. Some Ball Ground lots are heavily shaded by mature oaks; others get full southern exposure. We design your turf drainage and backing system based on your specific sunlight and moisture patterns. The synthetic materials we use are UV-stabilized for Georgia's summer heat, which is critical since reflected heat from pool water and concrete can age inferior turf quickly. Most of our Ball Ground installations range from 200 to 600 square feet around the pool perimeter. We typically recommend keeping the turf 18 inches back from the water's edge to account for splash patterns and maintenance access.
Absolutely. Our turf is non-toxic and designed specifically for pet safety. Many Ball Ground homeowners choose pool turf precisely because their dogs can play poolside without tracking mud into the house. The material is also antimicrobial-treated, so even with pets using the area, it stays fresher longer than natural grass would.
Chlorine exposure is actually one of the main reasons pool turf exists. Our materials won't fade, weaken, or discolor from regular chlorine splash-back. Ball Ground's humidity means drainage is crucial, though—we design systems so chlorinated water doesn't pond up. That prevents odor issues and keeps your deck safe underfoot year-round.
North Cherokee clay is actually ideal for synthetic turf installation. It provides solid compaction and excellent base stability. The key difference from natural grass is that we're not fighting clay's poor drainage—we're using it as a foundation and adding our own drainage layer. Your pool deck will be perfectly level and stable.
Minimal. Occasional rinsing to remove pollen and debris is all that's needed—no fertilizing, no mowing, no watering during our dry spells. The turf won't fade in Georgia's intense summer sun because we use commercial-grade, UV-stabilized materials. You'll actually save time and money compared to maintaining natural grass around a pool.
