The Premier Artificial Grass Installer in Edmond, OK!

Many homeowners and business owners throughout Edmond, OK are already enjoying Ideal Turf’s industry-leading artificial grass. With a manufactured lawn, you no longer have to worry about mowing, trimming, fertilizing, treating, re-seeding, or watering your grass. As a bonus, you can get rid of or sell costly gas-powered lawn care equipment. The bottom line is, with artificial grass you’ll have more free time, save money on water and maintenance costs, and make your neighbors extremely jealous of your picture-perfect yard!

This is one of the questions we hear most often, and the most difficult to answer.

Think of artificial grass as an investment, not a cost! This investment will increase the value of your property and save you money for years to come. Best of all, unlike most expenses you put into your home, Ideal Turf’s artificial grass will pay for itself over a matter of a few years.

For example, if you spend $200 per month on landscaping and water costs, that equates to $2,400 a year. Over five years, your cost is $12,000. The average Ideal Turf lawn is less expensive than that!

Artificial turf products have come a long way in the past two decades, both from a manufacturing and distribution standpoint. Nowadays the end-user has access to multiple purchasing options, all of which offer various degrees of product quality, installation experience, and post-installation support/guarantees that can make or break the client’s investment.

Choosing a trusted Edmond artificial grass company is an important aspect of making a confident investment. When dealing with a reputable turf contractor, you will likely see total project pricing ranging from:

• $6 – $15 per square foot for artificial grass
• $15 – $30 per square foot for putting greens

To get an idea of the cost of an artificial grass installation in Edmond, OK, check out our artificial grass cost calculator.

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

Key variables that could shift this number one way or the other are:

• Size of the area (volume)
• Ground preparation requirements
• Access to the project site
• Quality of product
• Application type (regular landscape turf, putting green, bocce court, etc). Most of the time, recreational applications such as putting greens will be on the higher end of the scale.

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 turf 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.

Absolutely! Pets and children alike are drawn to the soft, plush, and durable artificial grass products we offer here at Ideal Turf. You can count on our products not to contain any harmful traces of lead or other chemicals. Additionally, synthetic grass eliminates the poisons required for maintaining a natural grass yard and eliminates the need to use gas-powered lawn care equipment. Moreover, it provides a lush, soft surface that helps to absorb the shock from falls, which is one of the reasons it is used to improve playground safety. So, with artificial grass, your children and pets will be safer than ever.

Artificial grass is made out of resilient compounds like polypropylene, polyethylene, and nylon. Manufacturers add other compounds to incorporate different features into their products. For example, our turf products contain Microbe-Safe™, an antimicrobial additive that’s infused with the turf 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.

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 turf drainage are “Hole-Punched” and “Permeable.” We recently introduced a proprietary hybrid backing that’s fully permeable and hole-punched. The fully permeable backing allows water and pet urine to pass through any point in the backing, while the holes allow particles from solid waste to make their way through the turf and into the sub-base below.

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.

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

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

Outdoor Living Areas – A lot of people choose artificial grass for its multiple uses for outdoor lifestyles. We regularly install fake grass on roofs, decks, balconies, and patios.

Yards (Lawn & Landscape) – Synthetic lawns add aesthetic beauty to any Edmond property and allows you to avoid watering and maintenance costs. Switching to artificial turf in your yard can save up to 56,000 gallons of water per year!

Backyard Putting Greens – Many Edmond residents get backyard putting greens installed. Maintaining a natural grass golf green is extremely time and labor-intensive. Alternatively, you can completely customize your artificial turf putting green design, from the shape of the green to the breaks, you can even adjust the ball speed. Artificial turf putting greens are great for either leisure golfers or serious golfers looking to improve their short game.

The actual longevity of your fake grass in Edmond 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.

Artificial Turf Maintenance is pretty straightforward. 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.

The summers here in Edmond, Oklahoma are hot and muggy, with temperatures regularly climbing above 100°F. Our artificial grass products are built to withstand high-temperature summers and to look great year-round, rain or shine. You’ll have a beautiful, lush, natural-looking lawn while conserving water!

Fake 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 Edmond’s summer heat, your lawn will remain pleasantly functional. On those days that are exceedingly warm, simply hose off your lawn to cool it down. We do 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.

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. Working with a professional turf company, you can rest assured that your synthetic grass will be properly installed and will last for years to come.
