Zero Down — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your dog or cat deserves a yard that doesn't turn to mud every time it rains—and honestly, so do you. Decatur's red clay soil stays wet for days after a storm, which means bare patches, tracked-in mess, and a yard that looks rough even when you're trying to keep it nice. Pet artificial turf solves that problem completely. No more wrestling with muddy paws at the back door, no more dead grass where your pets do their business, and no more spending weekends trying to patch up your lawn. The neighborhoods around Oakhurst and Winnona Park have some beautiful historic homes with yards that deserve better than a beat-up natural lawn. We've installed pet turf for families throughout Decatur—people who love their yards and their animals equally—and the difference is immediate. You get a soft, clean surface that drains instantly, stays green year-round, and actually improves your home's curb appeal. Whether your lot is tucked under those mature oaks on a shaded street or gets full sun near the historic district, we can design a turf system that works for your specific yard and your pet's lifestyle.
Decatur's DeKalb red clay creates unique challenges for pet owners. This heavy soil compacts easily under paw traffic and holds moisture, making it perfect breeding ground for bacteria and algae—not ideal when Fido spends hours outside. Our pet turf installations account for Decatur's humid summers and the shade patterns created by the neighborhood's mature tree canopy. Some yards in MAK Historic District and around Agnes Scott College sit in deep shade, which affects both drainage and UV durability. We always conduct a site assessment to identify sun exposure and existing drainage patterns before installation. Most Decatur yards range from modest urban lots to deeper suburban properties, so we customize backing materials and infill density accordingly. The clay base underneath needs proper base preparation—we don't cut corners on this, especially given Georgia's rainfall. We also work within neighborhood aesthetic guidelines; many of Decatur's historic districts have landscape considerations, so we help you choose turf colors and styles that complement your home's character. Your pets will love the instant drainage; you'll love that muddy paws become a non-issue.
Absolutely. Pet turf is made from polypropylene or polyethylene that's engineered for Georgia heat and humidity. It won't melt or degrade, and the drainage system we install handles our heavy summer storms better than clay soil ever could. The infill material (usually silica sand and crumb rubber) stays cool underfoot and dries out quickly, so your pets won't overheat or sink into a soggy mess.
Yes. We specifically choose shade-tolerant turf blends for Decatur's tree-heavy neighborhoods. The turf won't perform like natural grass under dense canopy, but it stays attractive and functional. More importantly, shade areas won't develop the thin, patchy look that natural lawns get—your yard stays uniform and neat year-round, regardless of tree cover.
We excavate the existing soil, remove any compacted clay, and create a stable base with proper grading for drainage. Given DeKalb County's heavy clay, this step is non-negotiable. We add a permeable base layer, a drainage system, and then lay the turf. Proper base prep is what keeps pet urine from pooling and ensures your turf lasts 15+ years.
Completely safe. The turf is non-toxic, and the infill won't harm pets if ingested in small amounts. Urine drains straight through into your base layer, so it never pools on the surface. We can also recommend optional enzyme treatments that break down pet waste naturally if you want extra odor control, especially useful in Decatur's humidity.
