Sub Base Types — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Chattahoochee Hills is horse country—rolling estates, rural acreage, and homes where your pets actually have room to roam. That's exactly why pet turf makes so much sense out here in South Fulton. We've installed synthetic turf for dozens of families in Serenbe and the Rico area, and the story's always the same: natural grass either gets torn up by dogs within a season, or it turns into a mud pit during our Georgia rains. With pet turf, your yard stays green and usable year-round, no matter how hard your dog plays. Since we're based locally, we understand the soil conditions on these rolling hills—clay-heavy, sometimes compacted—and how that affects both drainage and what kind of base prep your installation needs. Your pets get a safe, non-toxic surface to play on, and you get your weekends back instead of fighting mud stains and dead patches.
The terrain around Chattahoochee Hills—those characteristic South Fulton rolling hills—means drainage is a real consideration. Clay soil here can hold water, so a proper sub-base isn't optional; it's essential for longevity. We typically recommend a gravel or recycled asphalt base, sometimes with a drainage layer, depending on your specific lot's slope and compaction. Most properties in Serenbe and the Rico area sit on larger rural parcels, which is great for pet turf—you get room to install without tight fence lines or shared walls. Sun exposure varies significantly: some estates sit in full sun all day, while others have mature trees providing afternoon shade. Both work fine with pet turf, though full-sun yards may see faster wear in high-traffic zones. If you're in the Serenbe community specifically, confirm any HOA landscape guidelines before installation, though most allow synthetic turf for pet areas. The clay-based soil we see here actually benefits from the moisture-wicking properties of a well-installed synthetic surface—it keeps water from pooling while your dogs stay dry.
Yes. Clay doesn't drain like sandy soil, so we install a compacted gravel or recycled asphalt base—usually 4 to 6 inches, depending on your yard's slope and current drainage. The rolling terrain here means water naturally wants to move, but the clay can trap it. Proper base prep prevents pooling under your pet turf and extends the system's life significantly.
Absolutely. Larger properties give us flexibility for installation and proper grading. We can zone different sections—high-traffic pet areas with reinforced turf, lower-traffic zones with standard pet-friendly synthetic. Estate lots also mean fewer complications with shared boundaries or tight easements.
Pet turf is built for Georgia's humidity and rain. The synthetic fibers don't rot or develop fungal issues like natural grass can in our wet springs. Our drainage-focused installation handles the heavy downpours typical in Fulton County, so you avoid the mud situations that plague natural grass on these rolling hills.
Serenbe community does have landscape guidelines, so confirm your specific section's rules. Most rural estates around Chattahoochee Hills have minimal restrictions, and pet turf is increasingly accepted as a practical solution. We can help you understand your property's requirements before we design your installation.
