Turf Removal & Replacement

When It's Time to Replace Your Turf

Artificial grass doesn't last forever. Even quality installations eventually need replacement after years of use and exposure to Florida's harsh sun and weather. You'll know it's time when you start seeing significant fading, matted areas that won't brush back up, visible seams pulling apart, or drainage problems that weren't there before.

Maybe you bought a home with old turf already installed, and it's beyond its useful life. Or perhaps your turf was a cheaper product that didn't hold up as expected. Either way, you don't have to live with subpar artificial grass. We remove old turf completely and install fresh, modern artificial grass systems that will perform properly for the next 15-20 years.

How We Remove Old Artificial Grass

Turf removal is more involved than just pulling up the grass. Here's what our process includes:

• Complete Turf Removal: We carefully remove all existing turf, including seam tape and fasteners
• Infill Collection: All infill material is removed and properly disposed of or recycled where possible
• Base Assessment: We inspect the existing base to determine if it can be reused or needs replacement
• Edge Trim Removal: Old edging, borders, and fastening systems are pulled out completely
• Site Cleanup: All debris is hauled away, leaving your property clean and ready for new installation
• Recycling: Whenever possible, we recycle old turf materials rather than sending them to landfills

Why Full Replacement Often Makes More Sense

Homeowners sometimes ask if they can just repair sections of old turf instead of replacing everything. While minor repairs are sometimes possible on relatively new installations, trying to patch up old, worn-out turf rarely works well. The new sections won't match the faded old areas. You'll still have drainage and base problems in other spots. And you're putting new turf over a deteriorated foundation.

Complete removal and replacement gives you a fresh start. We can upgrade to better drainage systems, install improved shock padding for comfort, and use modern turf products that outperform what was available 10-15 years ago. It's an opportunity to fix any issues with the original installation while getting turf that looks and feels dramatically better. For specific applications, we also specialize in pet turf systems that offer superior performance for dog owners.

Think of it like replacing an old roof. Patching worn-out shingles only goes so far. Eventually, you need to tear everything off and start over to get reliable, long-term performance.

Installing Your New Turf System

Once the old turf is removed, we handle the complete installation of your new system. This includes repairing or replacing the base as needed, installing proper drainage, adding shock padding if desired, and laying premium turf products selected specifically for your needs and usage patterns.

We use the same meticulous installation process as any new turf project. The base is compacted to proper specifications, drainage is verified, seams are invisible, and edges are secured professionally. You get a warranty on both materials and installation, giving you confidence in the longevity of your new turf. If you're upgrading your entire outdoor space, we can combine turf replacement with paver installations to create stunning landscape designs.

The entire removal and replacement process typically takes 2-3 days for residential projects, depending on the size of your yard. You'll go from worn-out, dated turf to a beautiful, modern lawn in less than a week.
