Women Owned — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Hiram runs long and hot, which means families in the Cedarcrest and Bill Arp areas are spending serious time in their backyards. If you've got a pool, you know the drill—wet feet, slippery concrete, algae stains on the deck, and grass that turns into mud the second anyone steps off the pavers. We've installed artificial turf around dozens of pools across Paulding County, and it's honestly one of the smartest upgrades we see homeowners make. The stuff looks natural, feels soft underfoot, and doesn't require the constant maintenance of real sod in our humid climate. You get a usable pool deck year-round, no matter the weather. Better yet, your kids and pets won't track wet grass clippings into the house or destroy a newly seeded lawn with chlorine runoff. It's durable enough to handle pool parties, tough enough to resist our clay-heavy soil conditions, and it drains fast so you're not standing in puddles after a summer thunderstorm. We're a women-owned business based just 25 minutes away in the greater Atlanta area, and we've made it our mission to help Hiram homeowners create backyards that actually work for their families—not just look pretty in a magazine.
Hiram's Paulding County clay is dense and doesn't drain like sandy soil, which is exactly why artificial turf around pools becomes a game-changer here. That heavy clay holds water, and when you add pool splash and daily foot traffic, real grass struggles to stay healthy. Our artificial turf systems include proper base preparation—we're talking crushed stone and a perforated underlayment that works *with* the clay instead of fighting it. The clay also stays firm year-round, which gives us a solid foundation for installation and prevents the settling you'd see in other soil types. Sun exposure around Hiram pools varies wildly depending on tree coverage near the Silver Comet Trail corridor and typical neighborhood layouts. Some backyards get eight-plus hours of direct summer sun; others are shaded by oaks in the morning and open by afternoon. We size and select turf accordingly—our premium blends handle full sun without fading, while our shade-tolerant options work if mature trees dominate your space. Homeowners near Hiram City Park and in established neighborhoods should also check whether their HOA has landscape guidelines. Most don't restrict pool-area turf, but it's worth confirming before we start. Typical Hiram pool decks range from 200 to 500 square feet, and we've found that artificial turf in this footprint pays for itself within three to five years when you factor in water savings, zero fertilizer costs, and time you're not spending on maintenance.
Absolutely. Our turf is specifically designed to resist chemical degradation and drain quickly—it won't hold standing water or develop mold in Paulding County's humid summers. Chlorine splash actually rinses off synthetic fibers better than it stains them. We use lead-free, UV-stabilized materials rated for pool environments, and we've got five-year warranties on materials. Installation at pool-side requires proper drainage and edging, which we handle during the prep phase.
We can run turf right up to pool decks, pavers, and even around filter housings and pump pads. The trick is making sure water routes away from equipment and toward drainage zones we establish during layout. Hiram's clay soil means we need to be intentional about slope and base prep, so water doesn't pool near concrete or mechanical equipment. We typically leave a small clearance around valves and fittings for maintenance access.
Hiram doesn't typically require permits for pool-area landscaping, but your HOA might have guidelines—especially in Bill Arp neighborhoods with established CC&Rs. We always recommend checking with your homeowners association first. If there are restrictions, they're usually minor tweaks to edging or turf height. We'll work with you to stay compliant and get everything documented.
Real grass around pools needs constant reseeding after chlorine damage, weekly mowing during summer, and heavy watering—expensive in Georgia heat. Artificial turf gets an occasional rinse and a light brush to keep the nap standing. No fertilizer, no pest control, no brown patches. You're looking at roughly 90 minutes of maintenance per year instead of 90 minutes per month.
