Lifetime Warranty — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Savannah's coastal climate is beautiful, but it's brutal on drainage systems. The sandy loam soil around the Historic District, Ardsley Park, and Isle of Hope drains fast in some spots and pools water in others—especially after our humid summers when the ground stays saturated. We've seen yards from Southside to River Street neighborhoods where poor drainage turns a $30,000 landscaping investment into a muddy mess within two seasons. That's where we come in. Our artificial turf installations include engineered drainage solutions designed specifically for Savannah's soil composition and salt-air environment. We're talking perforated base layers, crushed stone substrates, and permeable backing that actually moves water instead of trapping it. Whether you're protecting an existing landscape or starting fresh, proper drainage isn't optional here—it's the foundation of any turf system that'll last. We back our work with a lifetime warranty because we know what Savannah yards throw at installations, and we build for it.
Savannah's coastal sandy loam is deceptive. It looks like it should drain well, but the salt air and compacted soil underneath create pockets where water sits. Homes near Forsyth Park and Bonaventure Cemetery often deal with clay layers just 12-18 inches down that block drainage completely. Humidity is another factor—even if water moves through the turf, it lingers in the base, encouraging mold and root rot on natural grass. Our synthetic turf systems account for this with sloped base preparation and drainage fabric that directs water toward French drains or storm systems rather than letting it pool. Lot sizes in the Historic District tend to be smaller and tighter, which means we often work in tight spaces with mature oaks and existing hardscape. Salt spray from the Atlantic also means we select UV-resistant, salt-tolerant infill materials. Neighborhood aesthetics matter too—Historic District and Ardsley Park have specific landscape expectations, so we customize color and pile height to blend with your existing landscaping while solving your drainage headaches.
Savannah's sandy loam sits on top of clay and silt layers that are nearly impermeable. Salt water intrusion from the coast also compacts soil over time. What looks like good drainage on top gets blocked 12-18 inches down. Our artificial turf installation includes a sloped base layer and perforated underdrain system that channels water away before it pools, solving the problem naturally grass can't handle.
Absolutely. We carry shade-rated turf varieties that perform in 3-4 hours of indirect light—perfect for those massive live oaks. The drainage benefit is even bigger in shaded areas because water doesn't evaporate, so a properly engineered base layer is critical. We size and slope your system to handle Savannah's humidity without creating swamp conditions.
Salt spray accelerates degradation of cheap turf and standard infill materials, but quality synthetic systems handle it fine with proper maintenance. We use salt-tolerant infill blends and UV-stabilized fibers rated for coastal environments. Regular rinsing with fresh water keeps salt from accumulating in the backing. Your lifetime warranty covers salt-related wear as long as you follow our simple maintenance guide.
It depends on your yard size, existing drainage problems, and whether you're adding turf or fixing bare spots. Isle of Hope and Southside lots vary dramatically. A site visit lets us scope the soil conditions, identify clay layers, and recommend a drainage solution—French drain, perforated base, or both. We'll quote the whole system so you're protected by warranty, not guessing on hidden costs.
