Infill Types — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Jonesboro means a lot of things—backyard barbecues, neighborhood kids splashing around, and honestly, a lot of mud tracked into the house. That's where artificial turf around your pool makes a real difference. We install synthetic turf specifically designed for wet, high-traffic pool areas all over Clayton County, from Downtown Jonesboro to the Tara Boulevard corridor. The biggest advantage? No more slippery clay mud, no soggy patches that never dry out, and a clean, green space that actually looks good in photos. Your neighbors at Stately Oaks and throughout the county know the struggle with our local soil—that heavy Clayton County clay doesn't drain well, and it gets worse around pools. Artificial pool turf solves that problem while giving you a soft, safe surface that won't erode or compact under foot traffic. We handle the whole project: site prep, proper drainage setup, and installation of the right infill system for your specific pool setup. Most Jonesboro homeowners are surprised at how much time they save not maintaining grass around the pool, and kids appreciate the safer, softer feel compared to concrete or natural turf that gets torn up.
Jonesboro's Clayton County clay is heavy and compacted, which means natural grass around pools tends to stay waterlogged and develop bare patches fast. Your pool area gets constant splash, foot traffic, and moisture—conditions that kill regular turf within a season or two. Artificial turf handles that easily, but the installation matters. We make sure your subsurface is graded to move water away from the pool structure and into proper drainage. Sun exposure varies a lot depending on whether you're in Downtown Jonesboro or further out toward the residential areas—some yards get afternoon shade from mature oaks, others bake in full sun. That affects which infill type works best for temperature comfort. Most Jonesboro pool decks range from 200 to 600 square feet, and we customize infill depth and material based on your exact layout. If you have an HOA—common in the Tara Boulevard neighborhoods—we can verify that artificial turf meets your community standards before we start. The nice thing about installing in south metro Atlanta is accessibility: we can get equipment in, prep your base properly, and have your pool area pool-ready without the long delays you'd see in more remote areas.
We typically recommend silica sand or a sand-rubber blend for Jonesboro pools. Silica sand drains well and stays cooler in the summer sun, while a sand-rubber hybrid gives you better cushioning and temperature control. Since Clayton County gets pretty hot and humid, a lighter-colored infill helps keep the turf cooler underfoot during peak summer. We assess sun exposure during your site visit and recommend accordingly.
That's actually where artificial turf shines. We install a proper base layer with perforated drain pipes that funnel water away from your pool structure—something you can't do with natural grass on Clayton County clay. The turf itself is permeable, so water drains right through the infill and base system. It's a real upgrade over soggy, compacted natural grass.
Most residential pool turf projects in the Jonesboro area take 2 to 4 days, depending on size and how much grading or drainage work is needed. We handle everything—removal of old turf if you have it, base prep, leveling, and infill application. We're based about 35 minutes from Downtown Jonesboro, so scheduling is straightforward.
Yes. It's durable enough for dogs and cats, and infill materials we use are safe for pets. Urine drains straight through like rainwater, and solid waste is easy to remove. Many Jonesboro homeowners with dogs actually prefer artificial turf around pools because it prevents muddy paws better than natural grass ever could.
