Spring Special — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Decatur's tree-lined streets and historic neighborhoods like Oakhurst and Winnona Park are gorgeous—but they also mean patchy grass, muddy pool decks, and yards that fight against that dense shade. If you've got a pool in one of our DeKalb County zip codes (30030, 30032, or 30033), you already know the struggle: real grass just doesn't thrive under mature canopies, and spring rains turn those red clay yards into slop. That's where artificial turf wins. We've been installing synthetic pool decks and backyard turf across Decatur for years, and honestly, it's the smartest move homeowners in this area make. No more mud tracked into the house, no algae blooms on wet pavers, no dead patches come July. Our spring special gets you installed before pool season kicks into high gear—we're just 30 minutes away and familiar with every yard condition Decatur throws at us. Whether you're near Decatur Square or tucked into one of the historic districts, we can transform your pool area into a clean, safe, year-round outdoor space.
Decatur sits on classic DeKalb red clay, which drains poorly and compacts hard—terrible news for natural grass but actually ideal for artificial turf installation. We use that clay as a stable base and add proper drainage layers underneath, so you won't get pooling water around your pool deck even after heavy Georgia spring storms. The mature tree canopy that makes Decatur so charming also means most pools don't get full sun all day, which is fine for synthetic turf; it won't fade or degrade the way some budget materials do. Many Decatur properties in Oakhurst and Winnona Park have smaller, oddly-shaped yards due to the historic lot lines, so we routinely custom-cut turf to fit around pools, spa areas, and landscaping. HOA guidelines in some neighborhoods require approval before deck work, but we handle that communication and know the rules for the MAK Historic District and adjacent areas. Spring installation is perfect timing because the ground isn't waterlogged yet, and you'll have your space ready before Memorial Day barbecues.
Absolutely. DeKalb red clay actually compacts well and provides a solid foundation. We excavate, grade for proper drainage, add a crushed stone base, then lay premium backing that prevents water from pooling. The clay works in your favor—it won't shift seasonally like looser soil. Your deck stays level and stable through Georgia's wet springs and dry summers.
Yes, with the right setup. Saltwater chlorine is tougher on turf fibers than freshwater, but high-quality synthetic materials handle it fine if you rinse the deck occasionally with a hose. We recommend a proper drainage system to manage salt buildup and keep water flowing away from the turf. Most Decatur pool owners go saltwater, and we've installed hundreds of saltwater-adjacent decks without issues.
Most residential pools (500–1,200 sq ft of deck) take 2–4 days depending on soil prep and drainage work. We schedule around your schedule. Spring is busier, so booking early in March or early April locks in faster turnaround. We also handle removal of old sod or pavers if needed.
Our spring special runs through April and includes free site assessment, upgraded infill options, and priority scheduling. Exact pricing depends on square footage and site conditions, but we typically see 15–20% savings versus full-price summer installations. Call or message us for a free quote on your Decatur property.
