We love our Florida sunshine, but with our sandy soil, intense heat and rain, and intermittent draught, maintaining a healthy yard is a challenge! And, if you’re lucky enough to grow a green lawn, it is costly with maintenance, pesticides and skyrocketing water bills, not to mention increasing watering restrictions.
Our residential and commercial artificial grass installations will transform your space.
- We carry a variety of artificial grass to meet your needs.
- Artificial lawns provide a safe and clean environment for children and pets.
- Our turf is durable and comes with a 15-year manufacturer warranty.

Considerations for installing artificial turf:
- Green space requirements.
- Permeability. Artificial turf is porous with ample drainage.
- Sun orientation and reflective surfaces, such as windows and vinyl fences.
- Drainage. French drains and deck drains.

Frequently Asked Questions
A typical range is $8.50 to $12.00 installed. However, be wary of quotes given over the phone and per-square-foot pricing. Always get a detailed, line-itemized quote that lists all the materials by name, description, and quantities. The quality and quantity of material will impact the longevity of your project. Installations where sub-standard material or insufficient quantities are used will often cause your system to fail in just a few years after the labor warranty expires. A properly installed system should last 20-25 years. Factors impacting the price you pay include, but are not limited to, the turf you select, site preparation, drainage and other environmental challenges that require mitigation, infill options, shape and size. Putting greens will cost more.
Yes, anyone who says otherwise is misrepresenting the facts. It’s true that artificial grass does not require cutting, watering, fertilizing, or pesticides, and that artificial turf requires significantly less upkeep than natural grass; however, you will still need to brush the fibers occasionally, remove debris, rinse pet areas, control weeds at the edges, and have loose seams repaired early.
With proper installation, artificial turf systems are more pervious and drain better than our native soil. The proper use of sub-base material ensures a 3-5 inch reservoir to hold and allow for the percolation of rainwater. The system should be designed to have a slight, imperceptible slope to allow for proper drainage. In certain cases, drainage systems such as downspout drains, French drains, channel drains, and other drainage systems will need to be deployed to ensure that excess water is managed appropriately and safely.
A well-installed artificial grass lawn typically lasts 15-20 years, while premium turf with good maintenance can last 20-25 years. Heavy use, harsh weather, sun exposure, poor drainage, or lower-quality turf may impact the life of your artificial grass system.
Artificial turf is designed to withstand heat and drought and is UV-protected. However, artificial turf does get hot in direct sunlight. You should consider adding a sunshade or ask us about our specialty cooling infill that, according to manufacturers’ testing, can reduce surface temperature by 35-50 degrees. You should also be advised that installing synthetic turf near highly reflective surfaces, such as highly reflective vinyl fencing or windows, should be avoided.
Professional synthetic grass installation starts with a free comprehensive site survey. Your sales consultant will look for key environmental factors that may impact your project. Once completed, your consultant will generate a comprehensive project plan and line item estimate. This will include a plan to mitigate any outside environmental issues, including drainage, retaining walls, highly reflective surfaces, site excavation, sub-base work, turf placement, and finishing details to ensure a smooth, secure surface around playground equipment and features. Proper installation is key to long-term performance.
Requirements vary by property. Florida law provides certain protections for artificial turf that is not visible from surrounding properties or common areas, but HOA approval and local permits may still be required. Tampa property owners should review the City of Tampa’s permitting requirements.
Turf Pro can provide supporting project information, but homeowners are responsible for obtaining all required approvals and permits. See Florida Statute § 720.3045 for more information.
