Fast Turnaround — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pool season in McCollum hits different when you've got artificial turf surrounding your deck. Here's the reality: that red clay soil we deal with in East Cobb holds moisture like nobody's business, and natural grass around a pool becomes a muddy, slippery mess within weeks. We've installed pool-side turf for dozens of homeowners in the McCollum area—folks who got tired of tracking wet grass clippings through the house and dealing with bare patches from chlorine splash. The aviation corridor neighborhoods around McCollum Airport tend to have larger residential lots, which means pool areas that really benefit from a clean, maintenance-free surface. We can get your pool turf installed fast because we're just 15 minutes away and know exactly how to handle the drainage challenges that come with our local clay base. Your pool deck shouldn't require constant upkeep just because it's wet half the year.
McCollum's East Cobb clay is actually why artificial turf shines here. That dense, heavy soil drains slowly and compacts easily, so real grass struggles around pool decks where water circulation and foot traffic concentrate. Our synthetic turf systems sit on top of a proper base layer that handles the moisture our area gets—we're not just laying turf on raw clay and hoping for the best. The neighborhoods east of the McCollum border tend to get solid afternoon sun, which means your pool area probably has decent exposure. That's good news: artificial turf won't fade like you'd expect, and it won't create the scalding-hot surface you might've heard about if it's quality material installed right. Chlorine and salt water won't kill it the way they kill natural grass. We've found that most residential lots here are sized just right for a pool plus surrounding turf—typically 15 to 25 feet of deck space. That's the sweet spot where artificial turf makes the biggest difference in usability and upkeep. Installation typically takes one to two days depending on site prep, and our crews know the drainage nuances of this area.
Absolutely. East Cobb clay is actually why we install a engineered base layer beneath the turf—not just sand. This system lets water drain through the synthetic surface and through the base, so moisture doesn't pool underneath. The clay underneath acts as a seal, which is exactly what you want. We've done this on dozens of properties around McCollum and the surrounding neighborhoods with zero drainage complaints.
We're 15 minutes from McCollum, so logistics aren't slowing us down. Most residential pool decks take one to two days depending on how much prep your existing surface needs. If you've got a clean patio or deck already in place, we move even faster. We schedule pool-turf jobs with quick turnaround because we know homeowners want to use their pools, not wait around for landscaping.
Not at all—that's one of the biggest advantages. Real grass browns out and dies around pool decks because of chlorine and salt exposure. Synthetic turf is chemically inert, so chlorine splash, salt water runoff, and sunscreen won't harm it. You'll still want to rinse it occasionally to keep it looking fresh, but you're not replacing dead grass every summer like neighbors with natural lawns.
Price depends on your deck size and how much site prep is needed. Most residential pools around McCollum need 300 to 600 square feet of turf. We provide a free onsite estimate so you see the exact scope and cost. Many homeowners find that the time and money they save on maintenance over three to five years pays back the installation cost pretty quickly.
