Chandler Turf Installation

Artificial Turf Installation in Chandler, AZ

From stripping the old grass to brushing in the infill, a turf lawn built to drain and stay flat.

Artificial Turf Installation in Chandler, Built From the Base Up

Artificial turf installation in Chandler starts with removal. We cut out the existing grass and roots, take out or cap the sprinkler heads in the turf area, and haul it all away.

Next comes the base: crushed rock spread in layers, wetted and compacted, then graded so water runs away from the house and toward a yard drain or gravel border. Most turf failures we see trace back to a base that was too thin.

Before anyone digs, we request Arizona 811 locates. Sprinkler mains, cable lines and gas lines often run right under Chandler lawns.

Artificial Turf Installation Questions

How deep should the base be under artificial turf?

It depends on the soil and the use. Play areas and dog runs need more than a decorative strip. We size the base after looking at your yard and explain why.

What happens to my sprinklers?

Heads inside the turf area are removed or capped, and the zone is adjusted so trees and beds outside the turf still get water.

Can you install turf around trees?

Yes. We leave a ring of gravel or mulch around trunks so roots get air and water and the turf isn't cut into the root flare.

Will the City of Chandler rebate my turf install?

No. The City says areas converted to artificial turf won't qualify for its grass removal rebate.
