Synthetic Grass Installation Built for Arizona Yards

Artificial turf solves the biggest challenges of desert landscaping: heat, water, and upkeep. We install synthetic grass that looks real, stays cool, and stands up to heavy use—no mowing, watering, or fading. From clean front lawns to full backyard transformations, every turf installation is customized for your layout, sun exposure, and foot traffic.

Putting greens, pet turf, poolside installs—we handle it all. The artificial grass we use is UV-resistant, drains fast, and stays lush year-round. Installation includes full ground prep, leveling, infill material, and professional seam work for a clean, long-lasting result.

Step-by-Step Artificial Turf Installation Process

Site Prep & Groundwork

We clear out existing real grass, debris, and weeds. Our team grades the yard for proper drainage and compacts the sub-base using a plate compactor for stability. A weed barrier and crushed rock ensure a clean, sturdy foundation.

Turf Layout & Cutting

We roll out and cut to fit your exact layout. We pay close attention to grain direction and seam placement for a natural look.

Secure & Seam

We secure the turf using stakes, adhesive, and/or seam tape. Seams are tightly bonded and brushed to blend seamlessly across your yard. We use drop spreaders to apply infill. Silica sand or antimicrobial infill is applied to help blades stand upright and provide weight and cushion. We finish with power brushing for a clean, uniform surface.

Final Walkthrough

You’ll get a final walkthrough with our team to review your installation a do full clean-up of the yard. The result? A low-maintenance, always-green yard built to last, backed by warranty.

DIY vs. Hiring a Professional Installer

While a DIY synthetic grass installation may seem cost-effective, skipping professional equipment like a plate compactor or drop spreader can cause poor drainage, wrinkles, and early wear. Our experienced team ensures long-term results and backs it with a warranty—saving you time and future repairs.

Austin and his crew did a phenomenal job on our backyard. From day one he went over our design carefully, gave us a honest estimate, added excellent ideas and proceeded to start on the day he said he would. The crew was polite, knowledgeable, cleaned up their work space everyday and were masters at their
trade. Geo was the project lead, he was so attentive to detail. He laid out the pavers to perfection. Our Pergola swing turned out beautiful. Everything about our yard turned out spectacular. We are definitely going to use Austin and his talented crew for future projects this summer. Thank you Platinum Outdoors for a job well done!

Austin and his team at Platinum Outdoors were nothing short of perfection!
We moved into our new home over a month ago and had paint, flooring, bathroom reno, framing, you name it done to our home. Every single project we started quickly ran into serious issues and we were always provided crews that were messy and not qualified to be doing the work.
However Austin’s team lead by Leo were professional, organized, timely, respectful and most importantly true craftsman’s at their trade. For everything that has gone wrong for us during this move, Platinum Outdoors is the true bright spot and they earned a customer for life.

FAQs

What do you put under artificial turf?

The base layer under artificial turf is typically made of compacted crushed rock or decomposed granite. This sub-base provides drainage, prevents shifting, and supports the turf for a smooth, long-lasting finish. A weed barrier fabric is often added before laying the turf to help block growth from underneath.

What is the average cost of installing artificial turf?

The average cost of artificial turf installation in Arizona ranges from $8 to $14 per square foot, depending on the type of turf, prep work, and project size. For a typical backyard, total installation costs often fall between $5,000 and $12,000. We offer custom quotes based on your exact layout and needs.

Can you put artificial turf directly on dirt?

Technically yes—but it’s not recommended. Installing artificial turf directly on dirt can lead to poor drainage, uneven surfaces, and faster wear and tear. A compacted sub-base is essential for a long-lasting, clean, and safe installation.

What is the cheapest sub-base for artificial grass?

Crushed concrete fines or decomposed granite are among the most cost-effective sub-base materials. They offer solid drainage and stability without the higher cost of other materials. The right base depends on your soil type and drainage needs, which we assess during the planning phase.

How much does it cost for someone to lay artificial grass?

Hiring a professional turf installer typically costs between $3 and $6 per square foot for labor alone, depending on site conditions and complexity. Full-service installation, including materials and prep, is priced per project. We provide all-in-one pricing with no surprise fees.

How can artificial turf help save me money in Arizona?

Artificial turf drastically cuts water usage, eliminating one of the biggest monthly expenses for Arizona homeowners. There’s no mowing, fertilizing, or reseeding, which reduces maintenance costs. Over time, turf installation pays for itself through water savings, especially during long, dry summers.

Is synthetic turf durable enough for kids and pets?

Yes, our synthetic turf is built to be durable to accommodate your pets and kids when they are playing or lounging outside. The turf is high quality, stays looking lush and is tolerant to our state’s heat.

Does fake grass look realistic?

Definitely, our fake grass has a variety of green colors you can choose from that help looking like real grass.

How much does synthetic turf cost per sqft?

Synthetic turf installation typically ranges from $8–$14 per sqft, depending on the product and project complexity. We provide open-book estimates tailored to your space and usage goals.

Can an artificial lawn be easy to maintain?

It’s absolutely much easier than maintaining traditional lawn care, and helps save lots of money from reducing water usage and supplies needed to maintain a typical grass yard.
