Nobody likes a lawn strewn with puddles or the mud that gets tracked through your house. This is why artificial grass is designed with a backing that facilitates drainage in one of two ways. The two most common types of backing are “Perforated/Hole-Punch” and “Non-Perforated/Permeable.” Learn more about Turf Drainage

Yes to both. Artificial turf is meant to thrive on open grounds as it is designed with that function in mind. When installing artificial grass on dirt, several steps must be taken to prepare the ground. The dirt surface must be properly flattened and topped with a base layer of crushed limestone that’s compacted. With the versatility of artificial grass it can be installed just about anywhere you can imagine. It actually requires less preparation to install artificial grass on concrete.

Yes. You can install artificial grass by yourself if you have the proper tools for the job. However, we strongly recommend going with a reputable artificial grass installation company.

Yes! Artificial grass is safe for children and pets. Synthetic grass eliminates the harmful chemicals required to maintain a natural grass yard. It also eliminates the need to use any gas-powered lawn care equipment. Additionally, artificial grass improves playground & play area safety by providing a lush, soft surface that helps to absorb the impact of falls. So, with artificial grass, your children and pets will be safer than ever.

The final price of artificial grass in Austin depends largely on the size of the installation, type of turf being installed, the amount of prep work required, etc. On average, for a 1,000 square foot installation, you can expect to pay around $6.00 – $12.00 per square foot. If you know the size of your lawn and would like to know what it might cost, you can use our artificial grass cost calculator.

Our custom installed artificial grass solutions cannot realistically be quoted by the square foot. Each lawn is different and Ideal Turf prices each project individually based on turf type, required ground preparation, size of the installation, and a number of other factors.

Any artificial grass company that randomly provides a square footage price over the phone or on the Internet is simply selling outdoor carpet, and not selling the same custom installed artificial grass solutions that Ideal Turf is well known for. Simply receiving a square footage price without a site visit is not a realistic or credible estimate of the true cost.

That is why Ideal Turf is happy to offer a FREE Design Consultation to provide exact pricing for your commercial or residential turf project.

Artificial grass is extremely versatile and is commonly used at both residential and commercial properties throughout Austin.

Pet Turf (Artificial Grass for Dogs) – People choose artificial turf for dogs and other pets because artificial turf doesn’t develop brown dog urine spots, dogs can’t dig through it, and because its durability allows it to remain pristine, even with very active dogs.

Outdoor Living Areas (Decks, Patios & Swimming Pool Areas) – A very popular application for artificial grass is in outdoor living areas. For example: artificial grass rooftops, decks, balconies, and patios. Also very popular is artificial grass around swimming pools.

Front Yards & Backyards (Lawns & Landscapes) – A lot of people want artificial grass for their front or backyards. A synthetic lawn boosts curb appeal and increases the value of your home while also allowing you to avoid watering and maintenance costs. Installing artificial grass in your yard can save up to 56,000 gallons of water per year!

Sports (Putting Greens & Bocce Ball) – A feature unfamiliar to most homeowners that’s exploded in popularity is backyard putting greens. Maintaining a natural grass putting green is extremely time and labor-intensive, not to mention expensive. Alternatively, you’re free to choose your own putting green design, from the shape of the green to the number of holes, breaks, and more. Artificial turf putting greens are great for either leisure golfers or serious golfers looking to improve their short game.

Artificial grass is made out of resilient compounds like polypropylene, polyethylene, and nylon. Manufacturers add other compounds to incorporate different features into their synthetic grass. For example, our turf products contain “Microbe-Safe™ Technology,” which is an antimicrobial additive that’s infused with the turf’s backing during the manufacturing process. This is especially valuable on fake grass for dogs as it helps prevent the buildup of odors and bacteria from dog urine.

The actual longevity of your synthetic grass in Austin will depend on the amount of foot traffic, and the frequency of maintenance it gets. However, artificial grass usually provides up to 20+ years of service.

More a matter of keeping clean than maintaining… Remove organic materials from the surface, typically by using a leaf blower. Rakes may be required for removing heavier objects; however, the leaf blower is the ideal tool for general upkeep. A stiff, natural bristle broom can be used to “fluff” high traffic areas. For a complete overview, check out our post on Artificial Turf Maintenance: How To Clean Synthetic Grass.

Manufactured grass does not stay as cool as natural grass which has water running through it, but it does not absorb and radiate heat like pavement, rock, or brick. Even during Austin’s summer heat, your lawn will remain pleasantly functional. On those days that are extremely hot, you can hose off your lawn to cool it down. We also recommend using T°Cool® Infill with your turf installation because it cools the artificial grass by 30° – 50°F through evaporative cooling.
