Warranty — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Buford homeowners deal with a particular set of yard challenges—and that's exactly why artificial turf has become such a smart choice around the Mall of Georgia area and down toward the Lake Lanier south shore. Those clay-heavy soils that come with living near the lake don't always cooperate with natural grass. Plus, between the humidity, the occasional drought stretches, and just the general maintenance grind, a lot of people in 30518 and 30519 are realizing that synthetic turf eliminates the guesswork entirely. You get a yard that actually looks consistent year-round, doesn't turn brown in summer, and won't get chewed up by the freeze-thaw cycles we see here. We've installed turf across Gwinnett County long enough to understand what works in Buford specifically—and we back it with a real warranty that protects your investment. No gimmicks, no surprise clauses. Just a straightforward guarantee that covers the materials and workmanship so you can stop stressing about your lawn and start enjoying your yard.
Buford's proximity to Lake Lanier means your soil is typically that dense Gwinnett clay mix—which is honestly not ideal for traditional sod. Clay holds moisture, drains poorly, and creates a hard base that encourages compaction. Artificial turf sidesteps that entire problem. What we do pay attention to is proper site prep and drainage underneath your new turf, especially if you're in a low spot on your property or near the water. Sun exposure varies pretty widely around Buford too. Some yards near the mall corridor get blasted with afternoon heat; others along the lake are shadier and cooler. We size and select turf products knowing that difference matters. Most residential lots here run anywhere from a quarter-acre to half-acre, so installation typically takes a day or two depending on removal and grading work. One more thing: if you're in a neighborhood with HOA guidelines—and several around here have them—artificial turf usually complies without any hassle, though we always recommend checking your covenants first.
Absolutely. In fact, clay is one of the best reasons to go artificial. We excavate the top 4–6 inches, replace it with a compacted base layer, add proper drainage infrastructure, and then install your turf. The clay underneath actually becomes an asset because it prevents settling. We've done this exact work all over Gwinnett County, and Buford yards perform exceptionally well.
Our standard warranty covers materials and installation workmanship for 10 years. It's not prorated—it's full coverage for the term. Buford's heat and humidity are factored into our product selection and installation standards, so you're protected against fading, seam separation, and backing degradation under normal use.
We design every installation with a perforated base layer and proper grading so water moves away from your foundation and into the surrounding landscape. Buford's clay means standing water is a real concern with natural grass anyway. With artificial turf and engineered drainage, you actually get better water management than you'd have with sod.
Yes. We handle full removal and disposal as part of the install. We haul out your old sod, level the base, and prepare the soil according to Buford's specific conditions. It's built into the timeline and the quote—no surprise add-ons.
