New Construction Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Building a new home in Pooler means you've got a real opportunity to design your outdoor space the right way from day one. A lot of homeowners in Godley Station and Forest Lakes are discovering that artificial turf around the pool area is a game-changer—especially when you're pouring concrete and laying foundations anyway. Why deal with natural grass that'll get beaten up by chlorine splash, constant foot traffic, and our Georgia heat? Pool turf gives you a clean, safe surface that looks sharp year-round without the maintenance headache. Since you're already coordinating with contractors for the big stuff, adding quality artificial turf during construction means no ripping out sod later or fighting with patchy spots around your deck. We've worked with plenty of new builds in the Chatham County area, and the homeowners who choose pool turf early almost always say it's one of their best decisions. You get a finished, resort-like feel without the worry.
Pooler sits on coastal plain sandy soil, which drains quickly—that's good news and bad news for natural grass. The sandy base actually works in your favor for turf installation because proper drainage is built right in. Our installer uses a solid base layer system that handles Pooler's moisture patterns without pooling or settling issues. Sun exposure varies depending on whether your new home is in Godley Station or Forest Lakes, but most pool areas get substantial afternoon heat. The turf we install handles full-sun poolside conditions without fading or getting soft in the heat. One thing to keep in mind: HOA communities in these neighborhoods sometimes have specific landscaping requirements, so we always check deed restrictions before installation. Most pool decks around here are 300–600 square feet, which makes for a manageable project that doesn't require extensive grading. Since you're building new, we can coordinate timing with your general contractor to avoid conflicts with concrete work, deck installation, or other finishing touches.
Absolutely. We deal with Chatham County's coastal environment regularly. The sandy, slightly saline soil won't damage artificial turf—in fact, it's easier to work with than clay-heavy soils inland. The material we use is UV-stabilized and chlorine-resistant, so salt air and pool chemicals won't degrade it. Rinse it occasionally with fresh water if you notice salt accumulation, just like you'd care for any outdoor surface near the coast.
Yes, and it's actually ideal. We coordinate the timing so turf installation happens after concrete work but before final landscaping. This prevents damage from heavy equipment and gives you a finished poolside while the rest of the property is still taking shape. Just let us know your construction timeline and we'll schedule accordingly.
Most do, but each community has slightly different rules. We always pull and review the CC&Rs before quoting work. In our experience, artificial turf for pool decks and entertainment areas is widely approved because it's clearly functional and looks professional. We'll confirm with your HOA as part of the process.
Typical pool turf projects in Pooler range from $2,500 to $8,000 depending on square footage and base preparation. New construction is usually more straightforward—no removal of old sod or heavy grading needed—so costs tend to be on the lower end.
