Veteran Owned — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Chamblee means one thing: you want a backyard that actually works for your family, not one that turns into a muddy nightmare every time someone gets out of the water. That's where artificial turf comes in. A lot of homeowners in the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor and Downtown Chamblee areas are ditching the traditional grass around their pools because it doesn't hold up. Real grass gets trampled, compacted, and stays wet—especially with our DeKalb clay soil, which drains like concrete. Pool turf is different. It's engineered to handle constant foot traffic, chlorine splash, and that constant wet-dry cycle. You get a clean, dry surface that doesn't track mud into your house, doesn't need mowing in summer, and actually looks better year-round than struggling natural grass ever could. We're a veteran-owned operation that's been installing pool turf systems in the Atlanta area for years, and we know exactly what works in Chamblee's urban lots and tight spaces. We can usually get you scheduled and installed in a couple of weeks, and most jobs wrap up faster than you'd expect.
Chamblee's got some specific challenges when it comes to pools and landscaping. The clay soil in DeKalb County compacts hard, which means drainage is a real issue. Under real grass, water pools and stays there—perfect conditions for algae and dead spots. That's one reason pool turf makes so much sense here. Our synthetic systems sit on a proper base that slopes water away quickly, so you're not fighting nature every summer. Another thing: a lot of Chamblee properties, especially near Downtown and the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor, have smaller yards. Compact lots mean every inch counts. We can custom-fit turf around pools of any shape and size without wasting material or leaving awkward seams. Sun exposure varies depending on whether you're in a shaded pocket or getting full afternoon heat. We'll assess your specific microclimate during the consultation—some areas get brutal afternoon UV, others stay cooler. That affects which infill and pile height we recommend. Most neighborhoods here don't have strict HOA restrictions on pool surrounds, but we always check. The turf we install is clean, green year-round, and complies with DeKalb County guidelines.
No. Our pool-grade turf is specifically treated to resist chlorine, salt, and UV exposure. We use premium materials that won't discolor or degrade from regular splash and exposure. That said, we recommend rinsing heavy chemical splashes with fresh water when possible—same thing you'd do to protect pool deck concrete. The turf itself is built to take it.
Clay drains poorly, so we don't lay turf directly on native soil. We excavate, grade for slope, add a 4–6 inch engineered base (usually recycled asphalt or crushed stone), compact it, then install a weed barrier and drainage layer before the turf. Proper base prep is what keeps water moving instead of pooling around your pool deck.
Most residential pool surround projects take 3–5 days, depending on size and base prep. We're based about 25 minutes from Chamblee, so scheduling is flexible. Once we're on-site, we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your summer plans.
Absolutely. We work around existing pools, equipment pads, and deck areas all the time in Chamblee. We'll custom-cut and fit the turf to match your layout exactly—no generic installations. If you have specific obstacles or tight spaces, bring photos or measurements to your consultation.
