Clean, low-maintenance artificial turf paired with custom pavers and stonework, creating a polished front yard designed and installed by Genesis Stoneworks.

Tired of patchy grass, endless mowing, and muddy patios after rain? Artificial turf installation provides a lush, green appearance that remains perfect year-round. Homeowners and business owners love it for backyards and patios because it's durable and water-wise.

Why Choose Professional Artificial Turf Installation?

Going pro means no guesswork. Experts handle everything from site prep to finishing touches, saving you weekends and headaches.

In backyards, it creates kid- and pet-safe play areas. Patios get a seamless upgrade without cracking like concrete.

Plus, it pairs beautifully with hardscape features like stone borders or pavers for a polished outdoor space.​

Benefits for Homeowners and Businesses

Artificial turf cuts water bills by up to 75% in dry areas like Los Angeles. No fertilizers or pesticides are needed, so it's eco-friendly.

Business owners use it for low-maintenance commercial patios that draw customers.

Imagine hosting barbecues in a backyard that's always green or on a patio that withstands heavy foot traffic without fading.

Preparing Your Backyard or Patio for Artificial Turf

Start with a solid base—it's 80% of the job.

Remove old grass, roots, and debris down to 3-4 inches. Add a weed barrier, then layer crushed stone or gravel. Compact it firmly for drainage.

For patios on concrete, clean thoroughly and add adhesive if needed. Slope slightly for water runoff.​

Ground Prep Checklist

• Call utilities (dial 811 or the equivalent in India) before digging.

• Level the surface—no low spots for puddles.

• Test drainage: Water should flow away fast.

The Professional Installation Process Step-by-Step

Pros follow a proven method. Here's how it unfolds.

Step 1: Measure and Order Materials

Calculate square footage accurately—factor in 5% extra for cuts.

Step 2: Excavate and Base Layer

Dig 3-4 inches deep. Fill with 2-3 inches of aggregate like decomposed granite. Rake smooth, then tamp with a plate compactor.​

Step 3: Install Edging and Turf

Lay aluminum or plastic edging for clean borders. Roll out turf, and trim to fit. Seam rolls with tape and glue for invisible joins.

Step 4: Secure and Infill

Nail down edges every 6 inches. Brush in silica sand or rubber infill to keep blades upright.​

Step 5: Final Grooming

Water lightly to settle infill. Brush against the grain for fluffiness.

The whole job takes 1-3 days for 500 sq ft.

Integrating Artificial Turf with Driveway Features

Enhance your setup with complementary hardscaping. Interlocking pavers for driveways create durable borders around turf areas.

What are interlocking driveways? They're modular pavers that lock together, perfect for edges where turf meets parking spots.

Consider an interlocking concrete paver driveway style for a clean transition. Terracotta driveway pavers add warmth, blending with the turf's green.

Interlocking concrete pavers for driveways resist weeds and handle vehicles well. Use interlocking paver driveway designs to frame patios—no grout lines to crack.

Practical Tips for Backyards and Patios

• Choose UV-resistant turf for sunny spots.

• Opt for a permeable underlay on patios for breathability.

• Maintenance? Hose weekly, brush monthly—done.

Pair turf with natural stone accents, like those from Genesis Stoneworks, for a premium backyard vibe.

Common Mistakes to Avoid During Installation

Skipping compaction leads to lumps over time.

Don't skimp on infill—it prevents matting.

Overlooking drainage causes pooling. Always test before finalizing.

Rushing seams show bubbles later. Pros use quality adhesives.
