Military Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your pool deck doesn't have to be slippery, hot, or a maintenance nightmare. A lot of homeowners around Marietta—whether you're in East Cobb near the Whitlock neighborhoods or closer to the Marietta Square area—realize their concrete or wood decking is either uncomfortable underfoot or demands constant upkeep. Artificial turf around your pool changes that equation. It stays cool, drains instantly, and won't turn into a mud pit after a Georgia downpour. We've installed pool-facing turf for military families, retirees, and young professionals across Cobb County who just wanted their backyard to feel like a resort without the work. The beauty of turf around a pool is that it's softer than concrete for kids and pets, it won't fade or crack from chlorine splash, and it eliminates that ring of algae or dirt you'd normally battle. If you're active duty, retired, or a military spouse in Marietta, we offer military discounts on every installation—because we know what it means to serve and deserve a home that feels like a break.
Marietta's red clay soil and that thick oak canopy covering a lot of residential lots means pool areas face a unique drainage and shade challenge. Your backyard might get morning sun but deep shade by afternoon, which actually works in turf's favor—it won't get as hot in those shaded zones. The red clay underneath doesn't drain like sandy soil, so proper base preparation is critical; we excavate, grade, and install a perforated underlayment system to handle those heavy Georgia storms. Most Marietta pools sit on quarter-acre to half-acre lots, which means we're typically working with 200–400 square feet of deck space. That clay also means the ground settles differently than in other regions, so we use a compacted crushed stone base rather than sand alone. Chlorine splash and salt from pool systems can be acidic, but modern artificial turf is engineered to handle it; we just recommend rinsing the turf after heavy pool activity. HOA guidelines in East Cobb and West Cobb neighborhoods sometimes have restrictions on turf type or color, so we always pull those specs upfront. The mature oaks that make Marietta beautiful also drop needles and debris—turf's easier to maintain than mulch or bare concrete in those situations.
No. Modern pool-grade turf is specifically UV-stabilized and chlorine-resistant. We install turf designed to handle splash, salt, and chemical exposure without discoloration or degradation. Just rinse it occasionally with fresh water to remove mineral buildup. Homeowners in East Cobb and Whitlock have had turf around their pools for 5+ years with zero fading or damage.
We don't rely on the red clay. We excavate 2–3 inches, install a compacted base of crushed stone, lay a perforated underlayment, and top it with the turf. Water drains straight through the base, into the stone, and away from your pool deck. This prevents pooling and keeps the area safe year-round.
Yes. Active duty, retired, and military spouses in Marietta and Cobb County receive a discount on every pool turf project. Just let us know your status when you request an estimate. We're located just 12 minutes from most Marietta neighborhoods, so scheduling is easy.
Absolutely. Turf actually stays cooler than concrete because of its surface composition. In shaded areas under those mature oaks, it stays even cooler and more comfortable. The combination of shade and turf means your pool deck won't burn feet and won't create that hot-zone problem concrete creates.
