A backyard you can use right after the rain: soft, clean turf for play, pets, cookouts and quiet evenings.
The backyard is where life happens: birthday parties, ball games, dogs, grills, hammocks and the occasional fire pit. It is also where grass takes the most punishment and where mud is hardest to live with. Turf gives you a surface that stays green and firm through summer droughts and spring downpours, so the yard is something you use instead of something you manage.
We design the backyard as a whole. Where does the water run now? Where do people walk? Should the turf run right up to the patio or leave a planting bed in between? We build the base with drainage in mind, add pet-friendly infill if you have dogs and finish edges neatly around patios, fire pits and play sets. The result is a yard that looks great and stays usable, without a mower in the garage.
A graded stone base and perforated backing let water move through, so the yard dries quickly after storms.
Soft, cushioned blades and a stable base handle running, sliding and digging attempts far better than grass.
We keep proper clearances and recommend pavers or stone under heat sources, since turf and flame do not mix.
Backyards under trees are often the best fit, because turf does not need sunlight to stay green.

You tell us about your yard and what you want, a new lawn, a fix for a worn one or a turf area, and we set a visit that fits your day.
We walk the property, measure each area, check sun, shade, soil and drainage and take photos of anything of note.
We explain your options for sod, turf or both, and give you a written scope with quantities, timing and clear pricing.
We mark utilities, remove old turf, set the grade, loosen and improve the soil and build the base before anything new goes down.
We lay sod in tight, staggered rows or install turf over a compacted stone base, with clean edges and tight seams.
We clean up, roll or brush the surface, walk you through the watering and care plan and set a reminder for your next check.
Keep turf away from open flame and hot embers. We use a paver or gravel surround and recommend following manufacturer guidance.
Yes. We can anchor equipment and add a safety pad under swings and slides.
Quality turf with infill has good traction when wet, similar to or better than wet grass.
A properly secured edge and base resist digging. We can also add a dog-specific area.
Occasionally in warm weather and more often in pet areas. A hose does most of the work.
