We have two dogs, what if they pee or poo on the turf? We want to install it outside.
Your dogs can pee or poo on our Pet Turf Rolls without it affecting the turf. To clean the turf rolls all you would need to do is pick up the poop and clean it by hosing it down or spraying it to make it smell better.
Was this helpful?I have a fenced next area which is a dog run approximately 12' X 50'. The area is well packed down with either dirt areas or solid grass both alive and dead. I would like to put the artificial turf over it without digging it up and would like to know if it is possible.
You can install our Pet Turf Rolls over your existing surface with ease. For optimal results, we do recommend following our standard turf installation instructions, but if you wanted just to lay this over your existing dirt as is, you would still get the benefits of having turf in your yard.
Was this helpful?What about hair collection. My welcome mat has little plastics to wipe your feet on but it tends to collect dog hair, tree seeds, strings etc and i can never get it clean because its trapped in there. will this type of turf trap hair and debris or will it release it if i took the leaf blower to it. I just dont want an oversized welcome mat in my back yard. i know some of the carpet style turf traps things in the tiny plastic. (my 4 danes slept my grass to death now they roll in the remaining dirt.)
Our Pet Turf Rolls will not collect hair in them like your mat. This artificial grass is meant to look and feel like real grass with added comfortability for pet paws. If you use a leaf blower, the hair would blow away like the leaves from the trees.
Was this helpful?My dogs like to dig, will the turf stop this?
We have learned never to say never, but unless their favorite bone is underneath that spot, it is highly unlikely. In the 2+ years, we have been selling this product; we have not had one incident where a dog has damaged out turf rolls.
Was this helpful?My dogs try to dig, will this turf stand up to dogs digging?
If a dog were to dig at our Pet Turf Rolls, they would eventually be able to tear through it. Since the turf is not organic, in most instances the dog won't try to dig. These rolls are constructed to withstand even the toughest play, and even if a dog did try to dig from time to time, the turf would be able to handle it.
Was this helpful?My lawn has rolling mounts and slopes, will the turf take the shape of the land?
Our Pet Turf Rolls would take the shape of the ground it is being placed over.
Was this helpful?What is the difference between the Pet Turf and the Bow Wow Turf? Do you recommend one over the other for a dog play/potty area?
Both products are really good for dog play/potty areas. They're both our best-selling pet turfs. The only major difference is the sizing, the Bow Wow Turf Rolls are 6.5' wide, whereas the Pet Turf Rolls are 7.5' and 15' wide.
Was this helpful?Do you have to use infill?
You don't have to use infill when installing our Pet Turf Rolls, but we do recommend using it. Infill helps to keep the turf blades standing up. This will help to make your turf look more like natural grass. Infill also helps to keep your turf properly draining. We offer a wide range of infills for our turf, with all of them being safe. For pet installations, we do recommend a certain few as they will help to mitigate smells and keep your turf cool. Our Zeolite Max is great as it is formulated to neutralize the smell from pet urine. This infill is recommended to be used under and on top of our turf as infill. This in conjunction with our Pet Fresh spray will help to keep our turf smelling fresh all day. The other infill we recommend is our Durafill. This infill is pet safe and helps to provide proper drainage for your turf. Not only will it help with drainage, but it will also help to keep your turf cooler than using rubber or silica sand infill.
Was this helpful?Does it get hotter then cement in summer time?
Our Pet Turf Rolls will be cooler than concrete in the summer time. The turf will get warmer than natural grass in direct sunlight but can be cooled with the use of a hose. We also have a product Hydrochill that will help to keep your turf cool even in direct sunlight with the use of some water.
Was this helpful?do you have contractors you recommend that can install your artificial grass?
Yes, please call us directly and we will help you connect with installers in your area.
Was this helpful?I'm reading that water will be able to penetrate through this product, however, if I install the weed cover underneath will the water penetrate through both products?
Water and other liquids would be able to penetrate through both our Pet Turf Rolls and weed barrier to the subsurface with ease. Both products are designed to allow liquids to flow to the soil below.
Was this helpful?can the pet friendly turf be laid directly on a concrete slab in north texas
You can install our Pet Turf over any hard, flat surface. Our turf has been installed over concrete and asphalt pads with great success. If a dog were to urinate on the turf, it would seep through the turf to the concrete below. We recommend not gluing the turf down so that you could periodically clean the subsurface from time to time. This will help to help to reduce any unsightly odors. If you do glue it, we do offer a range of products that help with reducing odors. Our Turf Fresh and Zeolite Max products are great for this and are safe for pets and very easy to use.
Was this helpful?I have small yard of landscaping stones, 1-2 inch, rounded. Can I just lay this carpet on top for doggie area, maybe tack down edges?
Our Pet Turf Rolls can be loose-laid, secured by staples or nails, or glued to the ground. For your application, we would recommend securing the turf into the subfloor with staples or nails around the perimeter.
Was this helpful?We have regular turf down now on one of our balconies. One of our dogs must have sensitive paws because he hates to walk on it. Is this turf softer than regular
Our Pet Turf Rolls are a soft solution for artificial grass. They are softer than your average landscape turf. We recommend ordering free samples so you can see and feel in hand.
Was this helpful?What is the weight of pet turf?
Each square foot is approximately 0.62lbs.
Was this helpful?Can this turf be used for the fringe of a putting green?
Yes, our Pet Turf Rolls can be used for the fringe of a putting green.
Was this helpful?I have a rooftop terrace that has interlocking rubber tiles with a drainage system underneath. Can I install this on top?
Yes, this can be installed on a roof with proper drainage.
Was this helpful?Can you use silica sand as a base for a softer turf surface without adding a pad?
Yes. That being said Silica sand has been known to trap odors. We would recommend Durafill for your application. Durafill helps keep the turf cool, doesn’t absorb liquids and odors, and has antimicrobial properties. You can find this by searching "Durafill" in our search bar.
Was this helpful?I have a strip at the end of my patio (3’ x 15’ approximately) where I would like to put down turf for my dog. Right now it has gravel on it. Will I have to remove the grave and how is the turf secured?
We recommend installing our Pet Turf Rolls over compacted crushed granite. This is due to the great drainage properties this material has versus others. That being said, you can install our Pet Turf Rolls over any hard flat surface including compacted gravel. You would still want to follow the recommended install steps for securing. This can be done with adhesive, nails, or staples.
Was this helpful?I would buy this to save my grass from my dog. But if my only option is to put it on top of my original grass, then the dog turf will eventually kill the grass underneath. Correct?
If you put our Pet Turf Rolls or any turf roll over grass, it will kill the grass underneath if left over the grass for an extended period of time. If installed temporarily, the grass would not be affected. Once removed, grass would be able to grow again.
