Spring Special — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your pool deck doesn't have to look like mud season all year round. Here in Ellijay, mountain clay and unpredictable spring weather mean that natural grass around your pool area turns into a slippery mess—especially with all the foot traffic from family gatherings and those warm weekends when neighbors drop by. Artificial turf solves that problem completely. You get a lush, green deck that drains instantly, never needs mowing, and stays soft underfoot even when you're coming straight out of the water. Whether you're in the Apple Country neighborhoods or closer to Downtown Ellijay, pool turf is becoming the standard for homeowners who want their outdoor space to actually function year-round. Our spring special makes this the perfect time to upgrade before the real pool season hits. We handle everything from site prep to final installation—no hidden costs, no surprises—and we've done this work all across Gilmer County for families just like yours.
Ellijay's mountain clay is beautiful for apple orchards, but it's brutal on natural grass around pools. Clay doesn't drain well, which means puddles hang around for days after rain, and that standing water becomes a slipping hazard fast. Artificial turf eliminates that problem entirely—water runs straight through the backing and into your drainage system. Sun exposure varies a lot depending on whether your property sits in the Apple Country foothills or closer to town. We design turf systems with your specific sun pattern in mind because some areas stay shaded longer in spring, and UV performance matters. Most Ellijay pools sit on properties ranging from quarter-acre to two acres, so we handle everything from compact urban decks to sprawling vacation home setups. Spring installation is ideal here—the ground is workable, and you'll have your deck ready before Memorial Day weekend when the real entertaining season starts. Our crew knows the local terrain and can navigate the sloped yards common in this region without compromising drainage or appearance.
Absolutely. Our turf systems are engineered specifically for mountain climates with high moisture. The backing drains water immediately, unlike clay soil. We install proper base layers so water moves away from your pool deck, not toward it. You'll never deal with the pooling and muddy edges that plague natural grass here. Spring rains actually show off one of turf's biggest advantages in Ellijay—it stays usable while natural grass turns to mush.
Pricing depends on deck size and site conditions. A typical 20x15 deck runs $3,500–$5,500 installed. Ellijay properties sometimes need extra drainage work because of the clay, which adds cost but prevents bigger problems later. Our spring special offers $500–$1,000 off standard installations booked in April. Get a free measure and quote—no obligation, and we'll give you an honest breakdown.
Most residential pool decks take 2–4 days from start to finish. We remove existing grass or hardscape, prepare the base, install drainage (crucial here because of clay), lay turf, and edge everything. Weather cooperates in spring, so we rarely encounter delays. You're swimming on new turf within a week of booking.
Most residential installations don't require permits, but we check local codes before we start. If your property is in an HOA community or near certain neighborhoods, there might be landscaping guidelines. We handle all that upfront—no surprises when the work's done. Call us early, and we'll clarify what applies to your specific address.
