Outdoor Kitchen — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Savannah's humidity and salt-laden air create unique challenges for traditional pool landscaping. Your backyard oasis—whether you're lounging near Forsyth Park or entertaining in Ardsley Park—deserves turf that won't turn brown, won't hold standing water during our coastal downpours, and won't degrade under the relentless moisture we deal with eight months a year. Artificial turf around your pool deck solves problems that real grass simply can't handle here. It drains instantly, resists the salt spray creeping inland from the river, and stays green without the constant maintenance that battling our sandy loam soil demands. Homeowners across the Historic District, Isle of Hope, and the Southside are discovering that quality pool-side turf transforms their outdoor kitchen and entertainment areas into year-round gathering spaces. No mud tracked into the house. No bare patches from chlorine splash. No wrestling with irrigation systems in the summer heat. We've installed hundreds of pool decks throughout Savannah and the surrounding ZIP codes, and we understand exactly what your yard needs to thrive in this climate.
Savannah's coastal sandy loam drains quickly—almost too quickly in some spots—but that same composition makes it tough for traditional sod to establish deep roots near pool areas. Our salt-air exposure means any landscape material needs UV protection and salt-resistant backing, especially within a mile or two of River Street or the marshlands. Sun patterns vary dramatically: homes in the Historic District often have mature oaks creating dappled shade, while Southside properties tend toward full afternoon sun. This affects both turf selection and drainage planning. The high humidity we experience means your pool deck needs a permeable base layer that prevents moisture buildup underneath—standing water beneath artificial turf is a ticket to odor and degradation. Most Savannah pool decks range from 200 to 800 square feet, and many properties have established HOA guidelines (especially in Ardsley Park and Isle of Hope) that require approval for major landscape changes. We handle permitting and compliance so you don't have to. Installation around existing pools requires careful equipment staging and dust control, particularly important in densely planted neighborhoods where your neighbors' gardens are just a few feet away.
Not if it's UV-stabilized—and ours is rated for 15+ years of color retention even under intense coastal exposure. Savannah's humidity actually helps; it prevents the drying that accelerates fading in desert climates. We use turf with colorfast backing specifically designed for salt-air environments. Your pool deck will look fresh year after year without the bleaching you'd see with untreated materials.
Chlorine splashes rinse away with rain or your hose, and our turf fibers resist chemical breakdown. Salt-based chlorine systems are tougher, but the materials we install are designed for that. Rinse the deck periodically during heavy pool season, and you'll never see degradation. The real benefit: no dead grass patches from chemical burn, which is nearly impossible to avoid with real sod in Savannah.
We install a specialized permeable base—typically 4–6 inches of crushed stone—that prevents the water-logging that happens with our sandy loam when you add a non-porous surface. This base directs water away from your pool deck and into proper drainage channels. In heavy rain, water moves through the turf fibers and base layer in seconds, not hours. Your deck stays dry and safe, even during our summer downpours.
Ardsley Park and Isle of Hope have active design guidelines, and the Historic District has strict architectural review. We're familiar with all three and have completed dozens of approved installs in these areas. Artificial turf is increasingly accepted because it's low-maintenance and raises property values. We'll handle your permit submission and work with your HOA if needed—it's part of our service.
