How to Buy Artificial Grass
Artificial turf is an eco-friendly and affordable alternative to natural grass. Over the years, manufacturers have designed fake grass to look and perform just like the real thing so that you can have a fresh, green lawn the whole year.

Modern artificial grass is not just used for landscaping but also as flooring in gyms, doggy daycares, playgrounds, putting greens, and much more. We have turf for sale available in rolls, tiles, mats, and rugs, and most can be installed indoors and outdoors.

Must-Have Accessories
We offer a wide range of installation accessories for our artificial grass, so you have all the tools needed to make your turf install a breeze!
Installation
Installation
- Weed fabric: Weed fabric is essential to keep natural grass and weeds from growing through your turf flooring. This is one of the first materials you will want to install before your turf is laid.
- Staples and Nails: Nails are used to hold the edges of the turf down, whereas staples hold the turf seams together.
- Seam Tape and Adhesive: Our turf seam tape is an alternative to using staples at the seams. You apply glue to the tape and then stick the turf over it. We also carry turf seam tape, which already comes with adhesive on one side. You just have to peel off the backing and apply the tape. Easy Peasy!
- Lawn Pads: Foam lawn pads are placed under our turf to increase comfort underfoot. In addition to adding comfort, they’re fall height rated, making them great under playground turf.
- Infill: Adding infill is the last step in the installation process. Infill is used to weigh down the turf and create a more natural look by making the blades stand up straight. It also helps with mitigating heat and improves the drainage of your turf.
- Turf rake: Use a turf rake to spread infill over your turf. It is also very helpful when mowing the turf, so it maintains a natural look with vertical blades.
More About Turf Infill
There are several types of infill, and they each come with their benefits.
You can choose from:
- Silica Sand: The most popular infill, loved for its heat-reduction properties. Sand doesn’t compact or fracture upon impact. If you choose rounded grain, you will reduce the chance of abrasion if someone falls on the turf. The main downside of this material is that it absorbs moisture easily, and this can allow mold and mildew to grow. Choose silica sand for sports turf infill.
- Durafill: Also known as envirofill, this infill is a non-absorbent synthetic soil that promotes proper drainage. Since it doesn’t absorb moisture and is treated with Microban, Durafill is mold- and mildew-resistant. It’s also cooler than traditional black rubber crumb infill. This is the best choice for pet turf installation.
- Hydrochill / Chill Fill: This modified silica sand infill has been upgraded with a special treatment that allows it to cool turf better than any other infill type. The natural evaporative cooling system slowly releases stored moisture to reduce the turf surface temperature. When hydrated, the Hydrochill technology can keep the turf cool for several days. Chill fill infill is perfect for landscape turf, since it’s designed to keep the lawn comfortable.
- Zeolite Max: Designed to maintain a fresh and clean-smelling lawn, Zeolite Max works by neutralizing ammonia-based odors on the turf and in the air. This infill has a negative charge, which prevents ammonia from becoming a gas and creating unpleasant smells. It maintains this negative charge from nitrogen in rainwater, so no upkeep is needed. Zeolite is another great choice as an infill for pet turf.
- Rubber: As the first infill ever used, rubber crumb is typically the most widely known option, though it comes with some drawbacks. While it adds bounce to your turf, making it good for sports, rubber infill heats up rapidly in direct sunlight. Rubber crumb can be up to 34% than other infills. Additionally, the rubber bounces out of the turf and will require an eventual refill.
Customer Reviews
"I was so pleased at the quality of the flooring I received. It is made of heavy-duty and high-quality materials. The look is fantastic. The weight of the product is very heavy and I have no doubt this will be extremely durable for years. We went the cheaper route and used double sided tape for install, this along with the weight was ideal for my small budget. Installation was challenging due to the angles and amount of cutting my facility needed but with a bunch of help I was able to get it done in 4 hours and it looks awesome!"

"The artificial turf has done a very good job at keeping our pet from digging (and building her rock collection), and is also faring well so far in its first winter with the snow ice. Good product. Thanks!"
- Bruce
