Weekend Install — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard pool in Decatur deserves a surface that actually works year-round—not something that turns into mud soup every time it rains or gets torn up by foot traffic. That's where artificial turf comes in. We've installed pool decking and surrounding turf for homeowners across Oakhurst, Winnona Park, and the MAK Historic District, and the difference is immediate. No more chlorine-bleached dead patches. No slipping on wet concrete. Just a clean, safe, cushioned surface that handles the Georgia humidity and weekend barbecues without breaking down. Since we're based just 30 minutes away, we can handle your weekend install efficiently—get the job done Saturday and Sunday, and you're swimming by Monday. Decatur's mature tree canopy and clay soil actually make artificial turf shine: it doesn't compact, it doesn't puddle, and it looks rich and manicured without the maintenance nightmare of natural grass around a pool.
Decatur's notorious DeKalb red clay is heavy and dense—great for foundation stability, terrible for pool deck drainage if you're relying on sod or gravel. Artificial turf bypasses that problem entirely. We install it with a proper perforated base layer that channels water away from your pool while keeping the surface stable and level. The mature oaks and pines scattered across Decatur yards mean plenty of shade in some spots and full sun in others. Turf performs beautifully in both conditions, unlike natural grass which struggles under oak canopies. If you're in a historic neighborhood covenant area, double-check your HOA guidelines—most approve synthetic turf since it's neat and defined, but we'll confirm before we start. Decatur lots vary wildly in size, from tight urban plots near Decatur Square to larger properties on tree-lined streets. We customize layouts to maximize usable pool space and drainage flow specific to your property's terrain. The high humidity means moss and mildew love untreated surfaces; our turf infill and backing are treated to resist both.
Absolutely. Our turf is rated for extreme heat and moisture. Decatur's summer humidity and afternoon thunderstorms don't faze it—in fact, the drainage properties we build in keep water from pooling or creating soft spots. The material won't fade or break down under UV exposure or chlorine splash, which is why we see 10+ years of clean performance around pools here.
That's our specialty. Most Decatur pool decks take a Friday evening site prep and Saturday-Sunday installation. We handle base removal, grading, drainage setup, and turf installation in that window. Since we're 30 minutes away, we can coordinate early Saturday starts and finish by Sunday evening so you've got a usable deck by Monday morning.
It actually makes our job more important. Clay doesn't drain naturally, so pooling and soft spots develop fast with regular sod. We compact and level the clay base, add a perforated underlayment, and then install turf. This system turns problematic clay into a stable, drained foundation that lasts.
Our turf materials are chlorine-resistant and treated to prevent algae and mold growth—crucial in Decatur's humid climate. Occasional rinses keep it fresh. Unlike natural grass, there's no browning, bleaching, or dead patches from pool chemicals. It stays green and even-looking year after year.
