Urgent Install — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pine Lake's got that perfect setup for artificial turf around the pool—the community sits right on that private lake, which means humidity, moisture, and those clay-heavy soils that don't always play nice with natural grass. We've installed pool turf for dozens of families here in DeKalb County, and honestly, the feedback is always the same: why didn't we do this sooner? Your pool deck gets hammered. Wet feet, chlorine splashes, constant foot traffic from kids running in and out—natural grass just can't handle it. Artificial turf is literally built for this environment. It drains fast, it won't get torn up or muddy, and it looks sharp year-round without the maintenance nightmare. We're about 30 minutes from your neighborhood, so getting out here for a quick measure and estimate isn't a production. Most Pine Lake installs happen within 1–2 weeks, which matters when you've got summer plans locked in. The lake community vibe means your neighbors are probably thinking the same thing. Let's talk about what would actually work for your space.
DeKalb clay is dense and holds water—that's your reality around Pine Lake. Natural grass struggles because the soil drains poorly, especially in a spot that's already saturated from proximity to the lake. Artificial turf solves that problem entirely. We lay a proper base with crushed stone and a perforated system underneath, so water moves away from your pool deck instead of pooling. Sun exposure varies depending on your lot; some homes get afternoon shade from the pines and oak canopy, others face full southern exposure. We account for both when selecting turf. The community's pretty protective of curb appeal—that's been our experience—so we match turf heights and colors to what neighbors have already done. Most Pine Lake lots are 0.3 to 0.7 acres, so pool areas tend to be moderately sized, which is ideal for turf installation. Installation surface matters too; if you've got existing concrete or pavers, we work around them. If it's raw clay or packed dirt, we build the base properly so your turf stays level and drains right through Georgia's humid summers.
Absolutely. The lake proximity actually makes turf a better choice than natural grass. We engineer drainage so water moves through the system instead of saturating the clay underneath. Your turf won't stay soggy or develop fungal issues like natural grass would in this humid, wet microclimate. It dries fast and performs reliably.
Clay compacts and holds water, which is why we don't just lay turf on top. We remove the upper layer, compact it properly, add crushed stone base and drainage fabric, then install the turf system. This prevents water from pooling under your deck and keeps everything stable and level through Georgia's seasonal changes.
Yes. Most Pine Lake projects take 1–2 weeks from estimate to completion. We're 30 minutes away, so scheduling is flexible. If it's urgent, let us know—we've moved jobs up for homeowners in the community. Assuming your site's accessible and weather cooperates, we can absolutely make your timeline work.
We typically recommend 1.5-inch pile for pool areas—short enough to dry quickly, tall enough to feel soft underfoot. For color, we look at what's already in your neighborhood and your sun exposure. Full sun areas suit lighter greens; shaded spots work with deeper tones. We'll show you samples and walk you through the choice.
