Safe for Children & Pets

When considering landscaping solutions for your home or business, one of the most important considerations if the safety of children and pets. Artificial grass is more safe that natural grass as a ground cover that’s also a lot easier to maintain.

Eliminating those chemicals is also good for the environment.

Prevents Bacteria & Microbes

I researched several places once we decided to have artificial turf installed. Ideal Turf was the only one that responded promptly and came out to show samples of various types of turf. They were also the only company that did not have a minimum 500 sq feet required. (My side yard is small) The installation went great, and our yard looks amazing. Our neighbors are considering turf! Great service - no regrets!

The initial consultation with Jason went great. He was professional and extremely knowledgeable. We picked out turf for my backyard where I just installed a pool. Originally, they gave me a date three weeks out but I was extremely fortunate they had a cancellation and my turf was installed within a week and half. My backyard is now complete with a new pool and beautiful turf that looks real with no maintenance. His crew did a great job and if you are looking for artificial turf, I would definitely recommend them

Ideal Turf is the most professional artificial turf installation company I've worked with. They communicated with me constantly. All concerns and questions were quickly addressed, which was very important as I decided to have my backyard covered by artificial turf. I was extremely happy that they altered their timing to accommodate me. They could complete the work prior to our move-in. The service was not cheap, and the cost estimate wasn't excessively expensive, but it was very fair. I rate this company 5 stars.

They have made a lasting impression on us. Logan is extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. artificial grass had to be put in place before my son's birthday. The crew was excellent. The crew was amazing and our lawn is looking amazing! They ensured that we had everything we required. We chose the “Nile” synthetic grass as we own a dog and we were concerned about it getting ripped. They're a great business to work with.

We cannot stop staring at the lawn, and the dogs absolutely love it! The entire process was quick, easy, and pleasant. The entire team was so responsive and was helpful in deciding which product best fit our needs and the space. From consultation to installation, it was the most stress-free work I have ever had done. I wouldn't think twice about recommending Ideal Turf to anyone. I wish I had done this sooner. They are amazing.

Ideal Turf was a joy to work with - on time, courteous, professional and friendly. The entire experience working with Ideal Turf for the installation of our artificial turf for a fenced-in area for the dogs was so easy (from quote to installation to payment), and they did a great job. Couldn't be happier and happy to recommend again to others!

These people are the real deal. Things don't always go smoothly and its how things are handled that make the difference. I had a couple of issues with the initial installation. The turf wrinkled up due to a few things out of anyones control. Armando and his crew were out the next day and fixed the issue. We absolutely love our putting green and we really appreciate Ideal Turfs Management for making sure our experience was a good one.

I want my kids to be able to play outside, but our yard was so muddy when it rained. Went online looking for a turf company and picked Ideal Turf. Good choice. The installation crew was so friendly. Before they left, they asked if I was totally happy. Have to say I was. My kids love it.

The artificial grass that Ideal Turf Fort Worth installed in our backyard has transformed our lives! With three dogs and two small children, our backyard was under high stress and traffic and we found it impossible to keep grass alive. We contacted Ideal Turf and they quickly sent out a representative to show us samples of the synthetic grass, measure our lawn, answer questions, and provide design ideas. We've had the turf now for three months and it is extremely dog and kid friendly! The antimicrobial feature of the artificial grass was a huge selling point and truly helps keep the pet odor down. The only aspect better than the finished product was the outstanding customer service and overall quality of the installation experience. Ideal Turf Fort Worth helped us reclaim our backyard and turn it into an oasis where our family (and dogs) can play and relax.

We are very happy with the Ideal Turf experience. Kenton completed a couple different options. Once I decide on Ideal, Samantha, took over and kept us informed. They started the project early and completed in three days as promised. The installers worked hard and cleaned up when completed. Our cocker snd springer love the artificial turf. It is so easy to pick up there feces. Excellent experience snd value.

We used this company in 2020 and was very pleased, used them again and 2021 and had issues getting a crew out for a warranty issue. Unfortunately, the labor shortage has impacted them as well. If you have any issues, make sure you reach out to Amanda over customer relations, sooner rather than later, and she will help you ensure your issue is resolved.

We’ve had our Ideal Turf since November of last year. It is as beautiful today as it was the day it was installed. We have 3 dogs who love the turf. They lie on it as if it’s carpet and play very rambunctiously. Our experience with everyone was fantastic. I was impressed by how professional and courteous everyone was from beginning to end. We were also surprised about how quickly the entire process went. It was worth every dime. We now have a continuously beautiful yard.

I first have to start this off by thanking Josh Hamilton, the General Manager and our design consultant, Amanda Harvey in Finance, and Tony & his crew who did the installation. From start to finish this has been a wonderful experience, and the results are truly amazing. I must have heard my wife say a dozen times, “I love our backyard!” We haven’t been able to say that in a dozen years or more. I highly recommend Ideal Turf for their promptness, knowledge, courtesy, and amazing attention to detail.

These guys did an amazing job transforming our yard into something special. We have big dogs that had destroyed the grass and were constantly tracking mud into house. Shawn came out and quoted the job and got the ball rolling. The crew that installed did a fantastic job from start to finish. We are beyond pleased with the results. Only wish we’d done it years ago. And by the way the animals love it! 😍

Extremely responsive with great customer service! Our only regret is that we should have done this sooner! We had a small side yard converted - Ideal Turf did not try to sell us more than we wanted (no pressure - just the expertise we needed).
Installation crew was focused and cleaned up beyond our expectation. Great company!!

Ideal Turf turned our backyard into an oasis! Our dogs had “played “ off the grass in our backyard and there was no hope of a lawn ever surviving until Ideal Turf came into our lives. The turf, the walkways, and rock areas are perfect. They did exactly what we asked them to do. They even made the greenhouse look good! All of the associates were professional and prompt in every stage from beginning to end. I cant say enough how great Ideal Turf and their employees have been. We had a fantastic experience and the dogs love it!

To a person, everyone I dealt with at Ideal Turf was courteous, professional, and bent over backward to make sure I was satisfied. This kind of customer service is rare nowadays, but Ideal Turf surpassed all expectations. I got quotes from 3 different companies and Ideal Turf was significantly lower than the other two. There were a couple of misunderstandings about the project, but Ideal Turf was proactive about clearing everything up--and in my favor! The installers worked hard and diligently and made sure the area was clean before they left. I HIGHLY recommend IDEAL TURF if you are considering artificial turf. True professionals!

I contacted Ideal Turf on a Friday, had a gentleman visit with me Saturday for an estimate, and it was installed on a Monday. While I know that will not be the case every time, they were very responsive! Great company, great prices. The family loves it and especially the pups! No more mud, leaves or has tracked into the house!

From start to finish everyone at Ideal Turf was wonderful. Answered any questions I had and gave me very fair pricing. They had by far the most options as far as color, thread type, grass height etc. I have a puppy so I wanted something antimicrobial for the smell, which they have. They completed my job in under 3 hours and it was spotless when they finished. Truly a great experience!

While my installation is brand new and I cant speak on longevity or durability - I can speak on the quality of the product we chose Jordan 76, the price and the excellent crew that came out to install our artificial turf. The product was exactly what we needed to accommodate our dogs. It was porous, plush, not too long making for reasonable cleaning, looked the most natural of the turfs I reviewed. I did look at other turfs through competitors and in the end went with Ideal as they met my needs both from what I was looking for as well as price. One thing I really liked is other companies wanted to charge me for extra turf I would end up with due to the width/length of the rolls - which IMO should not be my problem. The impact was the square footage increased by 50% to accommodate this issue which in turn cost much more. From an installation perspective the crew that came out went above and beyond to make my yard look beautiful, they understood what I wanted to accomplish and talked with me about how to best achieve my ideas. Overall I highly recommend Ideal Turf.

Could not be happier with the whole process. Ideal Turf came by promptly for our small job with samples and recommendations. Their price was in the "ballpark", so due to their professionalism, we went with them. They did the work just a couple of days later, and we are very happy. Not only does it look wonderful, our Mastiff (the reason we got it) loves the fact that she no longer has to step in mud to go to the restroom. Great experience Ideal Turf!

Frequently Asked Questions

We hear a lot of the same questions from different clients, so below you’ll find the most frequently asked questions that we hear regarding artificial grass, installation, maintenance, cost, and more. If you have a question that isn’t answered below, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re happy to answer any additional questions you may have.

Why Install Artificial Grass in Your Denton Yard?

Everyone has their own reasons for installing artificial grass. We can tell you that if you’re considering an artificial grass installation for your Denton, TX home or business, it’s a decision that very few regret. The most common reason that we hear is to provide a safe, clean place for the family dog to run, play and do their business. Other reasons why you should install artificial grass are:

  • Increase your home’s or business’ value
  • Boost curb appeal
  • Eliminate maintenance costs
  • Save water & watering costs
  • Lower your carbon footprint
  • Enjoy more free time
  • Eliminate chemicals like fertilizers & pesticides

How Much Does Artificial Grass Cost in Denton, TX?

This is the most common question we’re asked, and the most difficult to answer. There are countless factors and variables that influence the cost of installing artificial grass. In general, you can expect to see total project pricing ranging from:

  • $6 – $15 / sq. ft. for artificial grass
  • $15 – $30 / sq. ft. for golf greens

The variables that influence the cost of artificial grass installations are:

  • Project size [square footage of the area]
  • Preparation work required
  • Turf product
  • Infill material
  • Extras: bender board, drainage membrane 

  

For a more accurate estimate, it helps to know the square footage of the project. For help determining the size of your project, we put together a guide on How to Measure for Artificial Grass.

  

If you’d like to get an idea of the cost of your project, check out our artificial grass cost calculator.

  

If you’re interested in a backyard putting green, we also have a putting green cost calculator.

Is Artificial Grass Safe for Children & Pets?

Yes, artificial grass is safe for children and pets to play on. It is made from synthetic materials that are safe for kids and dogs. Our turf products have been lab-tested to ensure they contain no lead or other harmful chemicals. Additionally, artificial grass does not require the use of pesticides or fertilizers like natural grass does. 

In fact, many pet owners choose artificial grass for their yards because it is durable, easy to keep clean, and free of messes. Additionally, artificial grass is hypoallergenic and pollen-free, so you and your child’s sinuses can rest easy. Artificial grass is often used in children’s play areas and on playgrounds to improve safety.

For help deciding on the right artificial grass for your children’s play areas, check out our guide on how to choose the best artificial grass for playgrounds & children’s play areas.

What is Artificial Grass Made of?

Artificial grass is made out of resilient compounds like polypropylene, polyethylene, and nylon. Manufacturers add other compounds to incorporate different features into their products, like the UV-Inhibitors that help to extend the life of our turf products.

We’ve worked with our manufacturers to develop turf products that are equipped with antimicrobial technology that is infused into the turf’s backing during manufacturing. We call this antimicrobial additive “Microbe-Safe™.”

This feature is especially valuable on fake grass for dogs as it helps prevent the buildup of odors and bacteria from dog urine.

Does Artificial Grass Drain Water & Pet Urine?

Artificial grass is designed to drain water and pet urine quickly and efficiently. The two most common types of turf drainage are backings that are hole-punched and fully-permeable.

We’ve also introduced our own proprietary backing that is a hybrid of hole-punch and fully-permeable that we call “DUAL FLOW.” This helps to prevent flooding and pooling, and also helps to keep the grass blades dry and free from mildew. 

In addition, artificial grass drains pet urine quickly and effectively, preventing odors and keeping the turf clean and fresh. As a result, artificial grass is an ideal choice for any application where drainage is a concern.

Can You Install Artificial Grass on Dirt? What About Concrete?

Dirt: Artificial grass should not be installed directly on dirt. Dirt turns to mud when it rains and allows water to pool on the surface. It also isn’t solid enough to keep the turf in place and would develop lumps, divots, wrinkles, and more. An artificial grass installation is a delicate process that requires a few specific steps in order to be done correctly. 

The first thing that needs to be done is to create a base layer out of Class II road base and crushed limestone. This base needs to be level and compacted in order to provide a solid foundation and to help facilitate drainage before the artificial grass is installed on top of it. Once the base is prepared, the artificial grass can then be laid down, trimmed, and secured into place. The final step is to infill the artificial grass with silica sand infill or another infill material.

Concrete: Yes, artificial grass can be installed on concrete but the installation process differs significantly. Installing artificial grass on concrete requires less preparation, but we recommend using a drainage membrane to facilitate drainage and prevent flooding.

What are the Most Common Artificial Grass Applications?

Artificial grass is extremely versatile and is commonly used in a variety of residential applications and commercial applications on properties throughout Denton, TX.

  

Artificial Grass for Dogs (Pet Turf) – Dogs are the most common reason that people choose to install artificial grass. Pet-friendly artificial grass won’t develop brown spots from dog urine, nor allow your dog to dig through it. This highly durable and versatile ground cover will remain lush, green, and perfect-looking, even with the most active dogs. To learn more about artificial grass for dogs or pet turf, check out our guide on how to choose the best artificial grass for dogs & pets.

  

Outdoor Living Spaces (Roof, Deck & Patio Turf) – The versatility of artificial grass makes it very popular for outdoor living spaces that won’t allow grass to grow, or that just need an aesthetic boost. Ideal Turf has installed artificial grass on rooftops, balconies, decks, walkways, patios, and countless outdoor living spaces. To learn more about roof, deck, patio, and outdoor living space turf, check out our guide on how to choose the best fake grass for patios & outdoor living spaces.

  

Front, Side & Backyards (Lawn & Landscape Turf) – Installing an artificial grass lawn will boost the curb appeal and increase the value of any Denton, TX property. Homeowners often make the switch in order to save on maintenance and watering costs, as an artificial turf yard can save up to 56,000 gallons of water per year! For help deciding on the right turf for your lawn, check out our guide on how to choose the best fake grass for lawns & landscapes.

  

Golf (Backyard Putting Greens) – Backyard putting greens have become increasingly popular in recent years. There are several reasons for this trend. First of all, artificial grass is more durable than natural grass, so it can stand up to heavy use. Secondly, artificial grass requires less maintenance than natural grass, so it’s a more convenient option for busy homeowners. Finally, artificial grass provides a consistent surface for practicing your putting skills, and you can customize your putting green design, from the shape of the green to the breaks, you can even adjust the ball speed. We recently published an in-depth buyer’s guide that explains how to choose the best artificial grass for backyard putting greens.

  

Swimming Pool Decks & Surrounds (Artificial Grass Around Pools) – Swimming pool areas like pool decks and around swimming pools are an increasingly popular choice for residential and commercial properties. Artificial grass offers an aesthetically pleasing, lush, soft, slip-resistant surface that improves the safety of pool areas. We published a detailed buyer’s guide that explains how to choose the best artificial grass for pool areas & pool decks.

How Long Does Artificial Grass Last?

You can usually expect 20 – 25+ years of service from your artificial grass. Ultimately, how long your artificial grass will last is going to depend on a few things like:

  • Quality of the turf product
  • Efficacy & quality of the installation
  • Amount of foot traffic
  • Frequency of maintenance

What Maintenance Does Artificial Grass Require?

Artificial turf maintenance is very easy.

  • Clear solid debris (i.e. twigs, leaves, etc.). You can do this by hand or with a leaf blower.
  • Rinse turf with a hose. This will remove any dirt, dust, or pollen that’s accumulated.
  • Replenish infill annually
  • If you notice any matting, use a stiff-bristle push broom to fluff the fibers and return them to their upright position
  • Dog owners will have to remove solid waste the same way you would for natural grass. Dog urine should be rinsed with a hose once a week to help prevent the buildup of odors and bacteria.

How Hot Does Artificial Grass Get in the Sun?

Artificial 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 Denton’s summer heat, your lawn will remain pleasantly functional. On days that are extremely hot, a quick spray down with a hose will quickly cool it down. 

We recommend using T°Cool® Infill with your turf installation because it cools the artificial grass by 30° – 50°F through evaporative cooling. It is also antimicrobial and will work alongside the backing to prevent the buildup of bacteria and odors.

Can I Install Artificial Grass Myself?

Yes, you can, but we don’t recommend it. Installing artificial grass properly requires some heavy-duty equipment like a sod cutter or bobcat, as well as other tools and equipment that you’d have to rent or borrow and learn how to use properly. 

Beyond the tools and equipment required, it also takes specific techniques at different stages of the installation that our crews have honed over years of installing artificial turf. Those are just a few of the reasons why we suggest working with a trustworthy and reliable artificial grass company. 

With a professional and experienced turf installation crew installing your artificial grass, you can rest assured that it will be installed properly the first time and will last for years or even decades to come. Ideal Turf offers a 1-year installation warranty and most of our turf products come with a 15 – 20 year manufacturer’s warranty.
