Military Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Douglasville hits different when you've got artificial turf surrounding your deck. That red clay soil we deal with out here in Douglas County? It tracks everywhere—mud on your deck, mud in the house, mud in the pool water. We've been installing pool-area turf for families across Chapel Hills and Arbor Station for years, and the transformation is real. You go from fighting clay stains and soggy spots near your waterline to having a clean, dry, comfortable lounge area that actually feels like a resort. The thing most homeowners don't realize until they have it: artificial turf turns your pool area from a maintenance headache into the best part of your yard. No more replacing sod every spring, no more brown patches where chlorine splashes, and zero mud cleanup. If you're active military or a veteran living in Douglasville, we've got special pricing that makes this upgrade even more affordable. Our crew can handle the whole job—removing old sod, grading that tricky clay base, installing premium turf, and adding the drainage system your pool area actually needs. We're based just 30 minutes away, so we know exactly how Douglasville yards behave through summer heat and occasional Georgia downpours.
Douglas County's red clay is beautiful for a lot of things, but it's not your friend when water pools. Around your pool deck, that clay holds moisture like a sponge, which means barefoot traffic turns into a slip hazard and plant roots stay waterlogged. We always install a proper drainage base before laying turf—crushed stone and perforated underlayment that lets water move away from your deck and pool equipment instead of sitting. Douglasville summers are intense, and full-sun pool areas can get brutal. We use shade-tolerant turf blends for areas near those big trees you see throughout Chapel Hills and near Sweetwater Creek State Park. Chlorine splash is also real—it'll kill natural grass fast, but quality artificial turf handles it without degradation. Most Douglasville pools sit on quarter-acre to half-acre lots, so we're usually working with defined spaces. Some properties in Arbor Station have HOA guidelines we need to respect, so we always confirm pile height and pile color before ordering. Installation typically takes 2–3 days depending on how much old sod removal and base prep your yard needs. We handle all the heavy lifting around your existing pool equipment.
Not at all. Premium turf materials don't absorb chlorine and won't degrade from regular splash and contact. The real issue is that natural grass dies fast with chlorine exposure—one of the biggest complaints we hear from Douglasville pool owners. Artificial turf laughs at it. We also make sure your deck has proper slope so water drains away naturally, keeping both the turf and your pool water clean.
Clay drainage is exactly why we don't just lay turf down and hope. We remove the clay layer around your deck area and replace it with a crushed stone base plus perforated drainage fabric. Water moves through instead of pooling. This is especially critical in Douglasville where summer storms can dump a lot of rain fast. It's the difference between a muddy mess and a perfectly usable pool area two hours after a storm.
