Maintenance — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard in Crabapple sees a lot of action—especially if you've got dogs, cats, or kids who treat the yard like their personal playground. That's where pet turf comes in. Unlike natural grass, which gets torn up, muddy, and patchy after a few months of paws and play, artificial turf stays green, stays firm, and actually gets easier to maintain. We've installed hundreds of yards across North Fulton, and the homeowners around Crabapple Crossroads and the Birmingham Falls area consistently tell us the same thing: they wish they'd done it sooner. Pet turf handles the Georgia heat without burning out, drains properly so puddles don't become mud pits, and gives your family a clean, safe surface year-round. No more replacing sod every spring. No more apologizing to your vet about parasites picked up in the yard. Just a beautiful, functional outdoor space that actually holds up to real life.
Crabapple's rolling clay soils drain differently than flat areas, which actually works in your favor with artificial turf. That dense clay means water pools easily on natural grass, but our pet turf systems are engineered with proper base preparation and sub-surface drainage to handle North Fulton's spring rains without creating swampy spots. The estate lots in your neighborhood—whether you're near Crabapple Market or in the Birmingham Falls Elementary area—often have mature trees that create mixed sun and shade patterns throughout the day. We design around that. Some yards need full drainage systems; others just need a solid base layer. The good news: clay compacts well, giving us a stable foundation that prevents settling. Because these properties tend to be larger, we often see homeowners wanting to turf high-traffic pet zones rather than the entire yard—a smart approach that keeps costs down while solving the real problem areas where dogs run, dig, or create worn patches.
In most cases, yes. We remove the old sod and work with the clay base underneath. Since Crabapple's soil is pretty dense, this actually works well—we can grade it, compact it, and add our base layers right over it. The removal process takes a day or two depending on your lot size, and we haul everything away. It's worth it for a clean installation.
Pet turf does absorb heat more than natural grass, but it doesn't get dangerously hot if installed correctly. We use lighter-colored infill and ensure proper drainage to help with heat dissipation. In peak summer, you might hose it down before your dog spends hours out there—same thing people do with pools and patios. It's still cooler than concrete.
Weekly raking with a stiff brush keeps it looking fresh and prevents matting. For pet waste, solid waste comes off easily; urine drains straight through into the base layer and yard below. A rinse with the hose every few weeks keeps odor down. It's honestly less work than mowing, and way less work than dealing with mud and bare patches.
Absolutely. Those rolling lots are common up here, and slopes actually help with drainage. We adjust base layers and grading to match your terrain, so water flows away from the house and settling isn't an issue. Slopes don't add much cost—they just need proper planning.
