Senior Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Drainage problems in Hiram backyards tend to show up fast, especially after we get those heavy Georgia rains. If you've got standing water pooling near your deck, muddy spots that won't dry out, or soggy areas that kill grass every summer, you're dealing with what a lot of Cedarcrest and Bill Arp homeowners face—Paulding County's dense clay soil doesn't let water move the way it should. The good news? Artificial turf solves this in a way natural grass never can. We install permeable turf systems that sit on top of proper drainage layers, so water flows through instead of pooling on top. We've been handling drainage fixes in neighborhoods around Hiram City Park and out toward the Silver Comet Trail corridor for years, and we know exactly how the land drains (or doesn't) in this area. Our team can be at your place in about 25 minutes from our shop, which means faster assessments and quicker turnaround on getting your yard fixed. For homeowners 55 and up, we offer senior discounts on drainage repairs and turf installations—because we believe in taking care of folks who've built this community.
Hiram's clay-heavy soil is beautiful for building on, but it's honestly the enemy of good drainage. That dense Paulding County clay doesn't absorb water quickly, so even yards that slope slightly wrong can end up with wet spots through fall and winter. When we install artificial turf here, we always start with a grading assessment and a gravel or crushed stone base layer—usually 4 to 6 inches depending on how bad the drainage issue is. We've worked yards that sit lower than the surrounding property, backyards that back up to wooded areas where water naturally flows downhill, and even some spots where the original grading settled over time. Lot sizes in the Cedarcrest and Bill Arp areas vary from standard suburban quarter-acres to larger properties, so we customize the drainage layer for what you've actually got. Sun exposure matters too—clay areas that stay shaded longer tend to hold moisture even after proper drainage work, which is why turf with solid drainage underneath gives you year-round usability without the mold or algae issues natural grass can develop in Hiram's humid summers.
Paulding County's clay soil is dense and doesn't drain naturally. Add even a slight low spot in your yard's grading, and water sits there instead of flowing away. We assess your property's slope and soil condition—sometimes the issue is as simple as grading, other times you need a real drainage layer underneath. Artificial turf with proper substrate fixes this permanently.
We remove the existing sod or dead grass, assess how water's moving (or not moving) across your yard, regrade if needed, and lay down a perforated base layer—usually crushed stone or engineered drainage rock. Then the turf sits on top with an infill that keeps water moving down instead of pooling. It's more thorough than just rolling out turf over bad soil.
Costs depend on lot size and how much grading or base work you need. Hiram yards range from modest to spacious, so we quote each job individually. Yes—if you're 55 or older, we offer a senior discount on both drainage work and turf installation. Call us to discuss your specific yard and what we can save you.
Yes, when it's installed with proper drainage underneath. The turf itself is permeable, and the substrate layer we install moves water down into the soil instead of trapping it. Unlike natural grass in clay soil, you won't get that spongy, moldy feeling even in humid weather. Your yard dries out faster and stays usable longer.
