Military Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Most Cumming homeowners we talk to have the same concern: they've invested in a beautiful pool, but the natural grass around it turns into a muddy mess or a brown eyesore within weeks. That's especially true in Forsyth County, where our sandier clay soil drains differently than you'd expect—it either holds water or dries out unevenly, depending on the season and how much sun your backyard gets. Artificial turf solves this problem completely. Whether you're in The Collection, Windermere, or anywhere else in the 30028, 30040, or 30041 zip codes, pool-side artificial grass gives you a clean, safe, maintenance-free deck that stays green year-round and won't stain clothes or leave algae buildup. We install synthetic turf specifically designed for pool environments—drainage is built in, the backing won't rot from constant moisture, and it's comfortable underfoot even on hot Georgia afternoons. Our team makes the 35-minute drive north regularly, and we know Cumming's climate, lot sizes, and HOA guidelines inside and out. A pool surround in artificial turf means no more chlorine damage to natural grass, no muddy footprints tracked into the house, and no weekly maintenance during peak summer when you should be enjoying the water.
Cumming's Forsyth County soil has a reputation for being tricky near water features. The sandier clay mix around Lake Lanier and in residential neighborhoods tends to compact in heavy traffic areas but stay loose in others, which makes consistent drainage a real challenge for natural turf. With a pool deck, that inconsistency actually works in artificial turf's favor. We size the drainage base and infill specifically for Forsyth's microclimate—the lake moderates temperature swings compared to inland areas, but it also means morning dew sits longer on traditional grass. Synthetic turf eliminates fungal and mold concerns that plague natural lawns in humid pockets. Most Cumming pools are installed on lots between half an acre and two acres, which gives us plenty of room to design a turf deck that transitions nicely to surrounding landscape. We always coordinate with HOA guidelines if your neighborhood has them—The Collection and Windermere both have specific landscape standards we respect. Sun exposure varies significantly depending on tree cover and lot orientation, but artificial turf performs consistently regardless. One thing we stress: the infill material we use (typically crumb rubber or silica sand) needs raking annually in Cumming's lake-influenced environment to prevent algae growth in low spots.
Synthetic turf does warm up in full sun, especially in Georgia summers. We recommend adding a shade structure or selecting lighter-colored turf options if your pool deck faces south without tree cover. Many of our Windermere clients combine turf with a pergola or shade sail. Cool-touch infill materials also help. It's warmer than concrete but comparable to wood decking, and still more comfortable than pavers after a few hours of sun.
No—that's actually one of the biggest advantages. Natural grass turns yellow and brittle from chlorine splash and chemical runoff. Our synthetic turf is specifically formulated to resist chlorine, salt water, and sunscreen stains. We use commercial-grade materials rated for pool environments. Rinse it down occasionally with fresh water if you notice heavy chemical buildup, but otherwise it's maintenance-free.
We install a engineered drainage base that sits on top of your existing soil. Water percolates through the turf and base layer, then either filters into the ground or runs to a designated drain point—we design it based on your lot's slope and Forsyth County soil composition. This is much more reliable than natural grass in areas prone to standing water near pools.
