Our Artificial Turf Installation Process

At Stokes Scapes, we make artificial turf installation simple, clean, and built to last. From the first walkthrough to the final brush-up, we focus on drainage, durability, and a finished look that feels natural and fits your space.

On-Site Design & Turf Planning

We start with a visit to measure the area, check grading, drainage, sun exposure, and traffic patterns, then talk through your goals and turf options. You get a clear estimate, realistic timeline, and expert recommendations based on how your yard will actually be used.

1

Base Prep & Professional Installation

We remove existing grass or debris, shape the area, install a compacted stone base, and address edging and water flow before the turf goes down. Then we cut and seam the synthetic grass with care, secure it properly, and add infill for a clean, durable finish that stands up over time.

2

Final Grooming & Customer Walkthrough

After installation, we brush and groom the turf, clean the site, and inspect seams, edges, and drainage to make sure everything looks right and performs well. We walk the project with you, answer questions, and make sure you feel confident before we wrap up, usually within a few days depending on size.

FAQs

Artificial Turf Installation FAQs

Common questions we hear from homeowners in Macon and nearby areas, answered by our team at Stokes Scapes.

  • How long does artificial turf installation take?

    Most artificial turf projects take a few days, depending on the size of the area, site access, drainage needs, and prep work involved. We start by removing old grass or debris, grading the area, building a solid base, and then installing and securing the turf. At Stokes Scapes, we give you a clear timeline before we begin so you know what to expect from day one.

  • Will artificial turf look fake?

    Not when it is installed the right way. A big part of a natural-looking synthetic grass lawn comes down to proper base work, seam placement, edging, and choosing the right turf product for your space. We help you select artificial grass that fits your home, whether you want a clean front yard, a backyard play area, or a polished poolside finish. Our goal is a lawn that looks neat, realistic, and built to last.

  • Is artificial turf good for pets and kids?

    Yes, artificial turf is a popular choice for families with children and pets. It creates a clean, even surface for play and daily use. We can also recommend turf products and installation methods that fit high-traffic areas, pet runs, and backyard spaces where durability matters most. If you have specific concerns about your dogs, play space, or drainage, we are happy to walk you through your options.

  • How much maintenance does artificial turf need?

    Artificial turf needs far less upkeep than natural grass, but it is not completely maintenance-free. Most homeowners just need occasional rinsing, light brushing, and removal of leaves or debris to keep it looking its best. We also install turf with proper drainage and a solid foundation, which helps prevent many of the issues people worry about later. During your estimate, we will explain exactly how to care for your new lawn.

  • How much does artificial turf installation cost?

    The cost depends on the size of the area, the condition of the existing yard, the type of synthetic turf you choose, edging, drainage needs, and how much site preparation is required. We do not believe in one-size-fits-all pricing because every property is different. At Stokes Scapes, we provide honest estimates and explain the scope of work clearly, so you understand what you are paying for and why.
