Price Match Guarantee — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
There's something special about a backyard pool in Thomaston—that quiet pride of having a retreat right outside your back door, especially during those warm Georgia summers. But here's the thing: pool decks take a beating. Traditional grass turns into mud soup, algae loves the moisture, and chlorine splash-back kills off whatever greenery you manage to keep alive. That's where artificial turf around your pool makes real sense. We've been installing pool-turf setups across Upson County for years, and honestly, it's one of the best upgrades pool owners make. It stays green year-round, drains properly even with heavy use, and your feet don't track chemicals and dirt back into the house. Your family gets that barefoot comfort without the maintenance nightmare. And here's our promise: we'll match any legitimate competitor's price on the same materials and installation scope. No gimmicks, no fine print. Just fair pricing and work that lasts.
Thomaston sits on Upson County clay—that heavy, dense soil that holds water like nobody's business. When you're installing turf around a pool, drainage becomes your best friend. We always engineer a proper base layer beneath artificial pool turf to prevent standing water and the mold problems that come with it. The clay underneath means we're grading carefully and sometimes adding a perforated drainage system, especially if your lot slopes toward the pool. Sun exposure varies a lot around here depending on whether you're closer to Downtown Thomaston or out toward Sprewell Bluff State Park area—some yards catch afternoon heat all day, others sit pretty shaded. We account for that when recommending blade height and backing material. Most residential pools around Upson County have decent-sized decks, so you're usually looking at 200–500 square feet of turf installation. That clay also means we're often prepping existing compacted ground, which takes time but prevents settling later. We size the project right the first time so you're not calling us back about dips or soft spots.
Absolutely, but it depends on installation. Upson County's climate brings plenty of moisture, so we always specify a backing that resists mold and mildew. We also slope the deck slightly away from the pool edge and use permeable sub-base materials. This lets water drain through instead of pooling under the turf. We've done hundreds of pool installations across Georgia—your humidity won't be an issue if we build it right.
Pricing depends on square footage, base prep (especially with Upson County clay), and material choices. We typically see 300–500 square feet running $2,500–$6,500 installed. Here's our guarantee: bring us a competitor's quote for the exact same turf product, base system, and labor scope, and we'll beat or match it. We're local enough to stand behind fair pricing without cutting corners.
The clay is actually why proper prep matters so much. We excavate and compact the existing clay, then add a gravel base layer with drainage fabric. It takes more work than sandy soil, but it's totally doable and creates a solid, stable foundation. The clay actually helps keep the base from shifting once we're done.
Most residential pool decks take 2–4 days depending on size and how much base prep the clay requires. We do the heavy lifting—excavation, grading, fabric and gravel—then lay and seam the turf. We're based about 70 minutes away, so we schedule jobs efficiently and get you finished without unnecessary delays.
