New Construction Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Building a new home in Brunswick means thinking seriously about your outdoor space—especially if you're planning a pool. That sandy coastal soil we've got here in Glynn County can make traditional grass maintenance a real headache, particularly when you're dealing with salt air and the humidity that comes with being so close to Jekyll Island and the waterfront. Artificial turf around your pool deck solves a bunch of problems at once. You get a soft, safe surface that won't track mud and debris into your pool water, won't die off from chlorine splashes, and won't need the constant watering that natural grass demands in our climate. Whether your new construction sits in Old Town, near the Sea Island access roads, or out on the mainland, pool-side artificial turf gives you a finished, low-maintenance backyard that actually works with our environment instead of against it. No more fighting the salt air or dealing with brown patches from chemical exposure. Just a clean, green surface that looks sharp year-round and keeps your family safe.
Brunswick's coastal sandy soil is honestly one of the biggest reasons homeowners switch to artificial turf around pools. Natural grass struggles here because that sandy base doesn't retain water or nutrients the way clay or loam does, and our salt-air exposure can stress out even hardy varieties. When you're adding pool chemicals to the mix, you've got a recipe for dead patches and constant reseeding. The sun exposure varies significantly depending on your lot—Old Town properties sometimes have mature tree cover that creates dappled shade, while mainland new construction often has full-sun pool areas. Artificial turf performs beautifully in both scenarios. Installation around a pool deck requires proper drainage planning since we get substantial rainfall and humidity year-round. Our installers always recommend perforated backing and a solid base layer to handle water runoff without pooling. Most new homes in the 31520 and 31523 ZIP codes have yards sized between a quarter-acre and half-acre. That's plenty of room for a quality pool surround without breaking the bank on materials. The salt air won't degrade modern synthetic turf the way it once did, but we do recommend a rinse-down a couple times yearly to keep everything looking fresh. HOA rules in some neighborhoods near Sea Island access can be particular about landscaping, so always check your covenants—artificial turf typically meets aesthetic standards since it stays perfectly green.
Modern synthetic turf is salt-resistant, but it does benefit from occasional freshwater rinsing—especially if your home is close to Mary Ross Waterfront Park or has direct coastal exposure. We recommend a simple rinse with a garden hose 2–3 times per year to remove salt buildup and keep the fibers looking vibrant. The degradation you might see in older turf products just isn't an issue anymore.
That's actually one of the best reasons to choose turf over natural grass in Brunswick. Chlorine will kill real grass, but synthetic turf is chemically inert—splashes and overspray won't create dead zones. The turf won't absorb chemicals or degrade from exposure. Just rinse it down occasionally if you notice chemical residue, and you're good.
Absolutely. Unlike natural grass, artificial turf doesn't need sunlight to stay green and healthy. We've installed beautiful pool surrounds in heavily shaded Old Town lots with mature oaks. The main consideration is drainage—shade often means moisture lingers longer, so we ensure your base and backing support proper water runoff.
Cost depends on your pool deck size and the turf grade you choose. Most new-construction pools in our area fall into the quarter-acre to half-acre range, typically running $2,500–$6,000 for quality installation.
