Color Options — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Clarkston means one thing: you want your backyard to look sharp without spending every weekend maintaining it. That's where artificial turf around your pool makes all the difference. Between the Milam Park area's tightly packed residential lots and Downtown Clarkston's mix of older and newer homes, space is precious—and so is time. Real grass around a pool area? It gets trampled, stays wet, tracks mud and chlorine stains everything. Artificial turf solves that completely. You get a lush, green deck that drains perfectly, feels great underfoot, and won't turn into a maintenance nightmare when your family's in the water all summer. We've installed pool-side turf throughout DeKalb County, and Clarkston homeowners consistently tell us it's one of the best upgrades they've made. The color options are way better than most people expect—you're not stuck with that flat, plastic-looking green anymore. Modern turf comes in realistic shades that blend beautifully with any landscaping style, whether you're updating a cottage near the Clarkston Community Center or a contemporary home in one of the newer subdivisions. We're just 25 minutes away, so we know the local soil, the weather patterns, and exactly what holds up best in this part of Georgia.
Clarkston sits on DeKalb clay, which drains slowly and compacts easily—that's actually one of the biggest reasons homeowners choose artificial turf here. Real grass struggles with pooling water and foot traffic in clay soil. Your backyard's probably not enormous either; most lots in Downtown Clarkston and the Milam Park area are compact urban spaces. That means every inch counts, and artificial turf maximizes usable deck area without needing sprinklers, fertilizer runs, or bare patches from heavy use. Summer sun exposure varies wildly depending on tree cover—some yards are shaded by mature oaks, while others bake in full afternoon sun. We size and select turf color specifically for your microclimate. Installation around pools requires proper base preparation and excellent drainage; we slope the subsurface away from the pool structure and use permeable backing so chlorinated water doesn't pool underneath. Clarkston's HOA rules (where they exist) typically welcome artificial turf as a maintenance-free solution, especially for pool areas. We handle all the grading and infill considerations that matter in this region's climate.
We offer three primary shades: Natural Green (closest to healthy sod), Olive Blend (warmer, slightly darker tone that hides debris), and Silver Sage (lighter option that reflects heat and works beautifully in shaded Milam Park yards). Most Clarkston homeowners pick Olive Blend because it complements both traditional and modern poolscapes without showing every leaf that falls.
Absolutely. The turf itself resists chlorine degradation—we use UV-stabilized polyethylene that won't fade or break down. Around your pool in Clarkston's climate, the real challenge is drainage and base prep, which we engineer specifically for DeKalb clay soil. Proper installation means no waterlogging, no odors, and turf that lasts 10-15 years with minimal care.
Most residential pool installations finish in 2-3 days, depending on yard size and prep work needed. Clarkston's compact lots usually mean we're not dealing with massive areas, which works in your favor—faster turnaround and lower labor costs than sprawling suburban projects.
Yes, infill (sand and rubber) keeps the turf stable and resilient. Maintenance is minimal: occasional raking to redistribute infill, a rinse if debris builds up, and maybe power-washing once a year. No mowing, no fertilizer, no dead patches—huge upgrade for Clarkston families who'd rather spend pool time with kids than maintaining grass.
