Water Savings — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Here's what we hear from pet owners in East Cobb and around Marietta: their dogs love the backyard, but maintaining natural grass feels impossible. Between the Georgia heat, the red clay that compacts under paws, and the shade cast by those mature oaks near Kennesaw Mountain, you're either watering constantly or watching brown patches spread across your lawn. Then there's the mud after rain—it tracks into the house, stains the porch, and nobody's happy. Pet turf changes that equation entirely. Our artificial turf installers have been working in Marietta neighborhoods (Whitlock, West Cobb, East Cobb) long enough to know what works here and what doesn't. We're talking about a surface that drains better than natural grass, stays green year-round without the water bill, and actually gets *easier* to clean when your dog plays on it. No more digging holes. No more chemical fertilizers your pet tracks inside. And the water savings? Families in the 30060 and 30062 ZIP codes typically cut outdoor water use by 50–70% once pet turf goes in.
Cobb County's red clay is beautiful, but it's not forgiving for grass. It holds moisture, gets slick when wet, and compacts hard under heavy foot traffic—or paw traffic. That dense clay also means drainage is slower, so puddles linger after rain. The mature oak canopy in many Marietta yards creates another layer of complexity: shade patterns shift seasonally, and natural grass struggles in spots that get less than 4–5 hours of direct sun. Pet turf sidesteps both issues. Our installations include a gravel and sand base layer that sits on top of your existing clay, creating a perforated drainage system underneath. Water runs through the turf and base, preventing that swampy feeling natural grass gets in summer. The artificial fibers don't need sunlight to stay green, so shaded areas under oak trees look identical to sunny sections of your yard. One more thing specific to Marietta: many yards in established neighborhoods (around the Marietta Square area and into residential pockets) are roughly ¼ to ½ acre. That's the sweet spot for pet turf—large enough to give dogs real play space without the maintenance burden of full-size acreage. Installation typically takes 3–5 days depending on lot size and existing landscape features.
Absolutely. Our turf is engineered for Southern heat and humidity. Unlike natural grass that goes dormant or browns in July and August, artificial turf stays vibrant. It won't scorch your dog's paws either—we use cooling infill technology. The surface stays cooler than dark asphalt and won't cause that sticky, uncomfortable feeling some lower-quality turfs get in intense heat.
We install a engineered base layer—typically gravel and sand—that sits between your clay and the turf. Water percolates down through the turf fibers and base material, then drains away to your yard's natural low points or a French drain if needed. This prevents standing water and keeps your pet area dry even after heavy Marietta-area thunderstorms.
It's completely safe. The turf surface won't irritate paws or skin. Solid waste is easy to pick up just like you'd do on natural grass. For urine, the drainage system handles it—rinse with water weekly, and bacteria won't accumulate. Some pet owners in the 30064 area use enzyme treatments seasonally, but it's entirely optional with our drainage design.
Most homeowners stop watering altogether once pet turf is installed. Natural grass in Cobb County's climate needs 1–1.5 inches weekly in summer to stay healthy. That's roughly 15,000–20,000 gallons per month for a typical Marietta yard. Artificial turf needs zero supplemental watering. Your savings kick in immediately and compound over years.
