Monthly Financing — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Picture this: it's July, you're hosting a backyard gathering near Lake Lanier, and your kids are running straight from the pool to the patio without tracking mud everywhere. That's the reality artificial turf brings to Buford homes, especially those of us dealing with the clay soil that comes with living this close to the water. The thing about pool decks in our area is they take a beating—chlorine, foot traffic, that constant wet-dry cycle. Real grass just doesn't hold up. We've installed artificial turf around dozens of pools in the 30518 and 30519 zip codes, from backyards in the Mall of Georgia neighborhoods to lakeside properties south of Lake Lanier Islands. The best part? You're not locked into paying cash upfront. Our monthly financing options make it easy to transform your pool area without the sticker shock. No more soggy brown patches, no more slippery algae buildup on natural grass, and no more weekend maintenance eating into your relaxation time.
Buford's proximity to Lake Lanier means your yard deals with moisture and that distinctive Gwinnett clay we all know too well. If you've got a pool, water drainage becomes critical—artificial turf installed properly actually helps redirect chlorinated water away from problem areas instead of letting it pool and kill patches of sod. The clay base in most Buford yards requires solid sub-base preparation, which is why we always recommend a consultation before quoting. Summer sun here is intense, especially if your pool deck faces west, so we typically recommend UV-stabilized polyethylene blades that won't fade or become slippery in direct sunlight. Many neighborhoods around the Mall of Georgia area have HOA guidelines, so we make sure your turf choice aligns with those standards. Most Buford pool decks we see range from 400 to 800 square feet, and the installation usually happens in one to two days depending on existing hardscape. The lake air means occasional mildew potential on natural grass—artificial turf eliminates that entirely while looking green year-round.
Absolutely. Commercial-grade artificial turf is designed to withstand pool chemicals. Chlorine and saltwater won't damage the fibers or backing. We just recommend rinsing the turf occasionally with fresh water if you're using a salt chlorinator, which is common in Buford pools. The drainage system we install ensures chemical-treated water moves through quickly rather than sitting on the surface.
Yes—it's actually why proper sub-base prep matters so much here. We remove the existing sod, level the clay, and install a compacted base layer that prevents the turf from settling or creating low spots where water pools. Buford's clay tends to compact well once prepared, which gives us a solid foundation for long-term durability around pool decks.
We offer monthly financing options specifically so Buford homeowners don't have to choose between their pool dreams and their budget. Most pool deck projects run 12–36 month plans depending on total cost. Ask about our current rates when you request your site visit.
Most pool turf projects in the 30518 and 30519 areas complete in one day if the base is already prepared. If we're removing existing turf or correcting drainage issues in that Gwinnett clay, plan for two days. We work around your schedule and typically finish before your next weekend gathering.
