Recycled Materials — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in Jonesboro means one thing: you want a backyard that's ready to go, not a muddy mess around the deck. That's where recycled-material artificial turf comes in. Instead of fighting Clayton County's heavy clay soil every summer—and watching your grass die off the moment the heat hits—you get a clean, green pool surround that actually drains, never needs mowing, and won't track mud into your house. Whether you're in Downtown Jonesboro, over by Tara Boulevard, or anywhere in the 30236 and 30237 zips, the reality is the same: natural grass around a pool is a headache. Kids slip on wet grass, algae grows in the shaded spots, and that clay underneath just holds water like a bathtub. Recycled synthetic turf fixes that. It's soft underfoot, stays cool in the Georgia sun, and because it's made from reclaimed materials, you're not adding unnecessary waste to a landfill. We've installed hundreds of pool yards across metro Atlanta, and Jonesboro homeowners consistently tell us it's the best upgrade they've made to their outdoor space.
Jonesboro sits squarely in Clayton County, and that means clay. Lots of it. That dense, compacted soil is terrible for drainage around a pool deck—water pools up, grass roots rot, and you end up with bare patches by mid-summer. Artificial turf with a proper base layer solves this entirely. The turf itself has built-in permeability, so water drains right through instead of sitting on top. Sun exposure varies depending on your lot. Homes closer to the Tara Boulevard corridor and Downtown Jonesboro tend to have mature trees overhead, which actually works in your favor with synthetic turf—no UV fade worries like you'd have with some cheaper brands, and the shade keeps the surface cooler on hot days. Yard sizes in Jonesboro range from modest postage stamps to spacious quarter-acre lots; whatever you've got, recycled turf works at any scale. One note: if your homeowners association has landscape guidelines (some neighborhoods do), we'll make sure the turf color and pile height match those specs. Installation itself is straightforward—we remove any existing sod, grade the area to shed water away from your pool, lay a recycled-rubber base, and roll out the turf. Most Jonesboro pools are done in a single day.
Absolutely. The material we use around Jonesboro pools is specifically designed to resist chlorine, salt, and UV exposure. Chemicals won't degrade it, and if splashes happen, they rinse clean with a hose. Unlike natural grass, which yellows and dies from chemical exposure, synthetic turf actually gets tougher with time. We've got five-year-old installations in Clayton County backyards that look brand new.
In full, direct sun, synthetic turf can get warm—but not dangerously hot. The recycled-material blends we install in Jonesboro have excellent thermal properties and don't retain heat the way some cheaper options do. Shade from mature trees (common on Tara Boulevard and Downtown Jonesboro lots) keeps it even cooler. Most families hose it down on really hot days anyway, which is fast and easy.
Clayton County's heavy clay suffocates natural grass roots and holds standing water. Recycled synthetic turf is permeable—water passes through the pile and drains into a specially graded base layer underneath. We slope the installation slightly away from the pool, so drainage is active, not passive. No more soggy, muddy spots in July and August.
DIY is possible, but grading and base preparation are where most homeowners slip up. Jonesboro's terrain and soil require proper slope and compaction for long-term drainage. A professional installation—which we can complete in a day—ensures warranty coverage and years of trouble-free performance. The upfront cost is worth avoiding soggy turf or premature wear.
