Under the turf
Most turf fails underground.
Wrinkles, sinking pavers and puddles start under the surface. Here’s what goes under ours.
That’s why the 5-Year Ground Guarantee covers seams, edges, base, drainage and settling.

- Turf with flow-through backing, seams glued and nailed every 6 inches
- 1 inch of leveling fines, graded to drain
- 3 inches of crushed rock, compacted in two passes
- Native soil and caliche, dug out 4 inches
- Polymeric sand joints and a concrete edge restraint
- Pavers, set and compacted
- 1 inch of bedding sand
- 4 inches of compacted base

The heat question
Yes, turf gets hot. Here’s what we do about it.
Any surface in full July sun gets hot. We plan around it instead of pretending it doesn’t happen.
- Lighter, cooler blades
- Cooling infill that works after a 2-minute rinse
- Shade where you sit
- Turf where you play, pavers and DG where nobody walks barefoot
Sample readings for a 112°F July day. The dashed line is about 120°F, where bare feet start to notice. Your yard depends on sun, shade and wind.
Mesa · 1,180 sq ft · 4 days

Walkthrough
We walk it with you and hand over the warranty and the care guide.
From the owner
“I spent nine years on crews that quoted from the truck and found the real price after the dig. I started Caliche so the price is settled before anyone touches dirt. If we hit caliche, that’s our problem, not yours.”
Reviews
What people say after the walkthrough.
“They sent a drawing with every square foot labeled before they ever came out. The final bill matched it to the dollar.”
“Two big dogs and no smell, even in August. The turf drains faster than our old dirt ever did.”
“They handled the whole HOA package. Approved in eleven days, and it looks like the drawing.”
Water and rebates
Your water bill will notice.
A 1,000 sq ft Bermuda lawn drinks roughly 35,000 gallons a year here. Some Valley cities pay you to pull it out, but their rules on turf differ.
Do you build on my street? What does my city pay?
- PhoenixTurf can qualifyUp to $2 per sq ft of grass removed, 250 sq ft minimum, approval before work starts. Turf can qualify depending on the design.
- ScottsdaleTurf cappedCheck the program’s status before you start. Scottsdale’s rules have capped artificial turf at 1,000 sq ft per property.
- MesaLimited turfGrass-to-xeriscape rebates from $2,000, 500 sq ft minimum, inspection before work. Turf is allowed only in limited areas.
- GilbertAsk firstUp to $2,000 for removing grass, plus a bonus for desert plants, inspection before work. Ask the town how turf affects it.
- PeoriaTurf doesn’t qualifyPays for desert plants, not turf. We design around it: turf where the dog plays, desert plants where the rebate pays.
