Lifetime Warranty — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard pool deserves a surface that won't turn into a mud pit come spring or a dust bowl by August. That's where artificial turf around your pool deck in Waleska makes all the difference. We've installed pool-side turf for homeowners throughout Cherokee County—from the Reinhardt University area down through the foothills—and we've learned what works when you're dealing with North Georgia's clay-heavy soil and unpredictable moisture patterns. Real grass around a pool gets pounded by foot traffic, chlorine splash, and constant wet-and-dry cycles. Synthetic turf handles all of it without degrading, stays soft underfoot, and never needs reseeding after a brutal summer. More importantly, our artificial turf comes with a lifetime warranty, so you're not gambling on your investment. We've been doing this long enough to know that Waleska homeowners want solutions that last—not band-aids that need replacing every few years. That's exactly what we deliver.
Waleska sits in that transition zone between the North Georgia mountains and the Cherokee County clay plains, which means your soil drains differently than it does just 20 minutes south. That clay-heavy composition is exactly why pool decks fail with natural grass—water sits, roots rot, and you end up with a slick mess every time it rains. Artificial turf eliminates that problem entirely. Our installers account for the local drainage patterns and install a perforated backing system that works with Waleska's terrain, not against it. Sun exposure varies significantly depending on whether your property borders the Funk Heritage Center side of town or sits closer to the Reinhardt University footprint, so we assess your shade patterns during the initial visit. Pool chemical exposure is another consideration unique to this area—chlorine concentration on turf varies based on wind direction and pool size, and we recommend an annual rinse during peak summer months. Most Waleska lots run 0.5 to 2 acres, which gives us plenty of flexibility for pool surround design. Installation typically takes 2–3 days, and we handle all grading adjustments to match your existing pool deck height.
Not significantly, especially with our lifetime-warranty turf. Chlorine splash happens, but our synthetic fibers resist chemical degradation far better than natural grass. We recommend a simple rinse with your garden hose once a month during heavy pool season to keep mineral buildup minimal. Waleska's humidity actually helps—it naturally flushes some of the residue. In five years of installations here, we've never had a chemical-related failure.
We install a perforated base layer beneath the turf that channels water away from the pool deck and into your existing yard drainage. Cherokee County clay compacts easily, so we use a stone-and-sand sublayer to prevent the pooling problems you'd get with natural grass. This system handles both the spring runoff from the foothills and the summer thunderstorms common to this area.
Our lifetime-warranty turf is engineered to stay cooler than cheaper alternatives, and Waleska's tree cover (especially near Reinhardt) provides natural shade on most properties. That said, a light rinse before use on peak July and August afternoons keeps it comfortable. Dark synthetic turf does absorb heat, but proper installation includes cooling-enhancing infill options.
Plan on 2–3 days for a typical pool surround. Spring (March–May) and fall (September–October) are ideal for Waleska because ground conditions are stable and you avoid the summer heat and spring mud season. We're about 40 minutes from our main location, but we schedule full-day appointments to make the drive worthwhile and keep costs competitive.
