Raised Bed Border — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool day in Lovejoy should mean relaxing, not worrying about muddy feet, chlorine-damaged grass, or standing water turning your yard into a swamp. That's where artificial turf around your pool makes all the difference. We've installed pool-side turf for homeowners throughout the Lovejoy community, and the transformation is always the same—cleaner, safer, and honestly, way more enjoyable for families who actually want to spend time outside. South Clayton's red clay soil doesn't drain the way pool decks need it to, and natural grass just can't handle the constant foot traffic, splash damage, and chemical exposure that comes with pool ownership. Our artificial turf solutions handle all of that without breaking a sweat. You get a soft, non-slip surface that stays green year-round, drains properly beneath the surface, and requires almost zero maintenance. Whether you're looking to create a defined border around an in-ground pool or add a safe, comfortable deck space for a raised pool setup, we can design something that fits your yard and your lifestyle. The best part? Once it's installed, you're done fussing with it. No more patching dead spots, no more slippery algae growth, and no more tracking red clay into the house after a dip.
Lovejoy sits on some of the heaviest red clay in Clayton County, which is actually one of the biggest reasons artificial turf works so well for pools here. That clay doesn't drain naturally, so water pools around traditional grass, creating muddy patches and drainage headaches. Our installation process addresses this by building in proper base layers and permeable backing that keeps water moving away from your pool area and into the ground safely. Sun exposure varies quite a bit depending on whether your property sits near the Lovejoy Plantation area or elsewhere in the community—some yards are shaded by mature trees, others get full afternoon sun. We size and grade your turf installation to account for these conditions. The typical Lovejoy residential lot gives us decent space to work with for pool surrounds, and we often see homeowners choosing raised-bed borders to define their pool spaces. This raised-border approach works beautifully with artificial turf because it creates natural drainage zones and keeps the turf separate from the pool chemistry. Installation takes a bit longer in our area due to that red clay base—we have to prep it properly so the turf sits stable and drains correctly. That extra prep work is what keeps your pool deck safe and beautiful for years.
Absolutely. Our turf is designed to breathe and drain even in humid conditions. Lovejoy summers are intense, but the permeable backing we install prevents moisture buildup underneath. The turf itself stays cool underfoot because it's made to shed water quickly rather than absorb it. You won't get that wet, spongy feeling you'd get with natural grass after a rain.
That clay is actually something we anticipate and plan for. We condition the base with drainage materials so water moves through instead of pooling. The clay is compacted and leveled first, then we add base layers that prevent the turf from settling unevenly. It's more work upfront, but it's why the installation lasts so long here.
Yes—raised pools are perfect for artificial turf. The raised-bed border approach lets us install turf right up to the pool wall with proper grading so water drains away. This is actually one of the cleanest looks, and it keeps the deck separated from pool chemistry concerns. We see a lot of raised pool installations in the Lovejoy community, and turf always performs well.
Most projects take 3-5 days depending on the size of the area and how much base prep is needed for that red clay. We handle everything from soil preparation to seaming and infill installation. We'll walk you through the timeline when we visit your property, and we schedule work around your pool use whenever possible.
