Services
A natural lawn is high maintenance.
It requires weekly attention, often forcing homeowners to rely on lawn mowing services, frequent watering, fertilizing, and weeding.
Artificial turfs are considered low-maintenance landscapes.
By switching, you eliminate the need for gas-powered mowers and expensive fertilizers.
More importantly, synthetic turf significantly reduces water consumption.
During installation, we often cap or modify existing irrigation solutions to suit the new landscape, leading to potential savings on water bills.
Artificial turf can help homeowners save money on water bills due to its low water consumption.
Texas weather is unpredictable. Freezes turn grass brown, and droughts kill it entirely.
Artificial grass provides a lush, green lawn year-round, regardless of weather conditions.
Your outdoor space will look immaculate 365 days a year, whether you live near Legacy West or the quiet streets of Parker.
Bermuda and St. Augustine often die in shaded areas under trees or near fences.
Artificial turf solutions are perfect for these difficult spots.
Furthermore, our turf installation process accounts for Plano clay soil, integrating robust drainage solutions so your yard doesn’t become a swamp.
Turf that is not designed to be pervious may affect drainage approvals by counting toward maximum impervious coverage, so we ensure ours drains perfectly.

01
Excavation
The artificial turf installation process begins with surface preparation. Excavation involves the removal of 1–3 inches of existing grass and soil for a stable base. We clear the area to ensure the new surface sits flush with the hardscape. Site preparation involves removing existing grass and soil to a depth of 2–4 inches and capping unused sprinkler heads.
02
Base Preparation
Base preparation requires applying 2–3 inches of crushed stone or decomposed granite for drainage, followed by compaction.
This creates a solid foundation for your turf.
03
Laying the Turf
We install weed barriers and unroll the artificial turf, ensuring the grain direction faces the main viewing area for the best aesthetic.
Turf installation includes laying, cutting to fit, securing edges with 40-D non-galvanized nails, and ensuring proper drainage.
04
Cutting and Fitting
Our team performs precise cutting to fit the turf around trees, patios, and walkways.
Professional installation teams have the skills and equipment necessary for a no-hassle installation of artificial turf.
05
Securing the Turf
We secure the turf to the base.
We fasten the perimeter with non-galvanized nails and bond the seams using commercial-grade tape and glue, ensuring the turf remains tight, wrinkle-free, and immovable.
06
Infilling
In place of standard sand infill, most clients choose a premium silica-based option that helps inhibit bacteria, mold, and mildew, reduces odors, and can lower surface temperatures by 15–20 degrees — making it ideal for bare feet and pet-friendly lawns. This final step helps the turf blades stand upright while enhancing durability, comfort, and long-term performance so your lawn looks great for years to come.
07
Power Brushing
We power brush the grass fibers to stand them up, giving the lawn a natural look.
This mechanical process evenly distributes the infill at the base of the turf, ensuring the blades remain vertical and the surface feels lush underfoot.
08
Cleanup
We leave your Plano home cleaner than we found it, removing all debris.
Homeowners can expect a seamless experience from start to finish during the artificial turf installation process.
