Wheelchair Accessible — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Brookhaven's established neighborhoods—Historic Brookhaven, Ashford Park, and Drew Valley—are full of homes with real potential for backyard transformation. If you've got a pool and you're tired of mud, algae stains, or uneven concrete around it, artificial turf is a game-changer. We've been installing pool-side turf throughout DeKalb County for years, and we know what works in Brookhaven's climate and soil. The clay-heavy ground here actually makes artificial turf installation even more valuable—you're avoiding drainage headaches and compaction issues that plague natural grass in these neighborhoods. What really matters for pool decks is safety, drainage, and a surface that won't degrade in Georgia's humid summers. Wheelchair accessibility is huge, too. A properly installed pool turf gives you a smooth, slip-resistant surface that's genuinely easier to navigate than cracked concrete or uneven ground. We're about 30 minutes from most Brookhaven addresses, so getting your pool area done is straightforward. Whether you're in Historic Brookhaven near Town Brookhaven or closer to Oglethorpe University in the south, the same principles apply: solid base prep, proper drainage, and turf that actually holds up to chlorine splash and foot traffic.
Brookhaven's DeKalb County clay soil is dense and doesn't drain naturally the way sandier soil does. Around your pool, that matters. Before we install artificial turf, we're building a proper sub-base that accounts for this—usually a perforated drain layer beneath the turf backing so water doesn't pool and create a swampy deck. The established neighborhoods here tend to have mature trees, which creates shade patterns you need to consider. If your yard in Ashford Park or Drew Valley has significant oak or pine coverage, the turf will stay drier longer, which is actually ideal for pool areas. Direct sun exposure, especially on south-facing decks, can heat up artificial turf, so we factor that into material selection and installation angle. HOA guidelines vary across Brookhaven's neighborhoods—some have landscape restrictions, others don't. We'll review your specific covenants before we start. Most residential pools here sit in yards ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 square feet total, so the turf area itself is typically manageable. Installation in clay requires excavation and compaction to prevent settling later. We're careful not to disturb existing drainage near your pool equipment, and we always verify utility lines before breaking ground.
Absolutely. Modern pool-grade artificial turf is engineered to resist chlorine, salt water, and sunscreen. The backing we use drains chemicals away quickly so they don't sit on the surface. Rinsing the deck occasionally with fresh water is good practice, but the turf itself won't degrade from normal pool use. We've installed dozens of pool decks throughout DeKalb County with no chemical-related failures.
Yes—it's actually one of the best surfaces for wheelchair accessibility. Artificial turf is smooth, firm, and slip-resistant when properly installed. Unlike concrete, it won't crack or create tripping hazards. The surface is level and easy to roll across, making pool access safer for everyone. This is especially valuable in Brookhaven's older neighborhoods where existing pool decks may be uneven or deteriorating.
Clay compacts differently than sandy soil and doesn't drain naturally. We build a sub-base with perforated drainage layers to prevent water from pooling beneath the turf. This extra step is essential in DeKalb County, especially around pools where moisture accumulation can cause problems. It's why we don't cut corners on prep work here.
Most HOAs approve artificial turf for pool decks because it's practical and maintains appearance. We'll review your specific covenants before quoting. If your neighborhood has landscape restrictions, we work within those guidelines. Contact us with your HOA docs, and we'll clarify what's allowed for your property.
