Turf Removal & Replacement

When It's Time to Replace Your Artificial Grass

Even the highest-quality artificial grass eventually needs replacement. After 10-15 years of use, turf fibers wear down, infill compacts, and the overall appearance and performance decline. Maybe you moved into a home with old, outdated turf that looks worn or faded. Or perhaps you're dealing with improperly installed turf that has drainage issues or visible seams.

Whatever your situation, our professional turf removal and replacement service handles everything from start to finish. We carefully remove your old turf, assess and repair the base if needed, and install beautiful new artificial grass that will serve you well for another 15-20 years. It's like getting a brand new yard without the hassle of doing it yourself.

Signs You Need Turf Replacement

How do you know when it's time to replace your artificial grass? Here are the telltale signs:

• Visible wear and matting: High-traffic areas show flattened fibers that won't stand back up, even with brushing.
• Fading and discoloration: Years of sun exposure cause colors to fade, making your lawn look dull and lifeless.
• Drainage problems: Water pools on the surface instead of draining quickly, indicating base or turf damage.
• Visible seams or edges: Seams separate or edges lift, creating trip hazards and an unprofessional appearance.
• Infill loss: The rubber or sand infill has mostly disappeared, leaving a thin, uncomfortable surface.
• Odor issues: Persistent smells even after cleaning indicate bacteria growth in deteriorated backing.
• Age over 15 years: Even well-maintained turf loses performance and safety characteristics after this time.

Our Complete Removal Process

Removing artificial grass properly requires more than just pulling it up. We start by cutting the turf into manageable sections and carefully removing all securing nails, stakes, and seam tape. The old infill material is collected and disposed of properly. We remove the turf backing and any deteriorated weed barrier underneath.

Once the old turf is gone, we inspect the base layer carefully. If the base is still in good condition, we can reuse it, saving you money. If we find settling, drainage issues, or poor compaction, we'll repair or replace the base to ensure your new turf performs perfectly. This thorough approach prevents future problems and ensures your investment lasts. We haul away all removed materials, leaving your property clean and ready for new installation.

Fresh Start with New Turf

After removal and base preparation, we install your new artificial grass using current best practices and premium materials. You can choose from the latest turf technology with improved durability, softer fibers, and better cooling properties than older products. We offer various pile heights, colors, and specialized options like pet turf systems or playground safety turf.

Every installation includes professional seaming, proper infill application, and secure edge finishing. We make sure your new turf drains properly, looks natural, and will provide years of low-maintenance beauty. The difference between old, worn turf and fresh installation is dramatic. Your yard will look better than it has in years.

Cost-Effective Upgrade for Your Property

While removal and replacement involves upfront costs, it's often more economical than you might think. If your base is in good condition, we can reuse it, significantly reducing the overall project cost. The labor to remove old turf is typically 20-30% of the total project, with the majority going toward new materials and installation. Most Southaven homeowners find the investment worthwhile given the transformation in appearance and the 15-20 year lifespan of the new turf.
