Residential — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard is one of the few places in Oakwood where you actually get to call the shots. Between the humid Georgia summers and those clay-heavy soils that Hall County's known for, keeping natural grass alive around a pool deck takes constant work—especially when you're juggling family time and everything else on your plate. Artificial turf changes that equation completely. We've installed pool-side turf for families throughout the Oakwood and Mundy Mill areas, and the difference is immediate: no more brown patches from chlorine splash, no more muddy footprints tracked into the house, and honestly, no more guilt about letting the lawn go during July and August. Your pool deserves a clean, usable perimeter year-round, and your free time deserves better than a mower schedule. We handle the full installation—base prep, drainage setup so water doesn't pool around your deck, and synthetic turf that holds up to sun, chemicals, and barefoot traffic. Most Oakwood properties sit on that dense clay, which actually works in our favor because we can build a stable, long-lasting foundation. Whether you're in the heart of Oakwood or closer to the Mundy Mill area, we've got experience with the specific challenges Lake Lanier proximity and our regional climate throw at outdoor spaces.
Hall County's clay soil is a double-edged sword. It drains slowly when it's saturated, which matters around pools where water runoff is constant, but it also provides a rock-solid base once we've prepped it properly. We always install a drainage system beneath artificial pool turf in Oakwood—it prevents that spongy feeling and keeps water from pooling near your deck or foundation. The summer sun here is relentless, and while synthetic turf won't fade like natural grass, we choose UV-stabilized products rated for Georgia's heat. Shade patterns are worth mentioning too: homes near the Mundy Mill area and throughout Oakwood often have mature trees, and artificial turf performs beautifully in mixed sun-and-shade yards where natural grass struggles. Most residential lots in this area range from 0.25 to 0.5 acres, so a pool deck and surrounding turf zone typically runs 400–800 square feet. Installation takes 2–4 days depending on site conditions and whether we're working around existing hardscape. We always check for underground utilities before we dig, and we account for Lake Lanier's influence on local water tables—the closer you live to the lake, the higher groundwater can climb seasonally.
Hall County clay is dense and doesn't drain fast, so we excavate 4–6 inches, add a gravel base layer, and install a perforated drainage system. This prevents water from sitting under the turf after pool splash or rain. Clay also compacts well, giving you a stable, level surface that won't shift or settle unevenly over time—a real advantage for pool decking.
Absolutely. Unlike natural grass, synthetic turf doesn't absorb chlorine or bleach. Chemicals rinse right through the drainage system we install. Occasional rinses with fresh water keep it looking pristine. Families throughout Oakwood have been using pool-side turf for years without chemical damage or discoloration.
Most jobs take 2–4 days, depending on your yard size and site conditions. We handle everything: base prep, drainage, turf installation, and edging. Properties in the Mundy Mill and Oakwood neighborhoods usually need 400–800 square feet around the pool, which we can typically complete in a long weekend.
Yes. Oakwood properties often have mature trees, and artificial turf thrives in mixed light. Unlike natural grass, it doesn't thin out in shade and doesn't need sunlight to stay green and usable. If you have dappled shade from oak or pine, turf is actually a better choice than seeding and reseeding every spring.
