Artificial Grass Around A Pool | Elite Turf Utah

A pool is a wonderful place to spend time with friends and family. As an investment, you definitely want to put the maintenance and care into any upkeep necessary. Imagine how nice it would be if the area surrounding your pool could be low or maintenance-free yet still beautiful and inviting. Imagine stepping out of the pool onto soft, green grass every time–no thorns, no weeds, no worms! Having a beautiful, low-maintenance and comfortable ground cover around your pool means more time playing and less time doing yard work.

Aesthetics

Your pool is a huge investment. It adds both quality of life and value to your property. You want your pool area to look classy, clean and inviting. Turf brings that clean-cut, always green, soft and classy look to the table. Artificial grass around a pool looks amazing and adds a beautiful, non-slip surface for swimmers and sun-bathers. Always green also means it always maintains that stunning contrast with the blue of the water. You can still include surrounding flower beds, potted plants and other landscaping if you want a little more than lawn out there.

Performance

Excellent for draining and drying because they allow water and air to flow through them. Just like carpet, these turfs can have added levels of padding underneath them. That means they can be as soft as you like, all while providing excellent drainage. One of the distinct advantages of artificial turf in pool areas is that the chlorine won't kill it or cause it to turn yellow. Always green, always soft, and durable to last the test of time too!

Maintenance

A pool is enough work–choose a ground cover that will beautifully offset your investment but require far less maintenance. Think: no mowing, no watering, no weeding, no fertilizing–just nicely cut, soft grass all the time. To ensure your turf lasts as long as possible, we will teach you some very simple and easy techniques to care for the turf, but it is negligible compared to the work put into real grass. If your pool is on a rental property, artificial turf around it is an especially great idea–the less maintenance the better!

q: HOW LONG DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF LAST?

A: With proper installation and basic maintenance, high-quality artificial turf will last 15 to 25 years depending on the product, the application, and the amount of traffic it receives. All of our turf products are backed by manufacturer warranties, and our installation process is designed to maximize the lifespan of every project.

q: IS artificial TURF PET FRIENDLY?

A: Yes. Our turf products are non-toxic and designed to handle heavy pet use. Pet-specific turf options feature enhanced drainage systems and antimicrobial infill that help control odor and simplify cleanup. Turf eliminates the mud, dead spots, and digging damage that come with natural grass in high-traffic pet areas.

Q: IS ARTIFICIAL TURF SAFE FOR KIDS?

A: Yes. Every turf product we carry is lead-free, non-toxic, and designed to meet safety standards for residential and commercial use. Turf provides a softer, more forgiving surface than hard-packed dirt, gravel, or concrete, making it well suited for play areas and backyards with heavy foot traffic. For playground applications, we offer shock-absorbent products that meet fall height protection standards.

q: Does artificial turf get hot?

A: Yes, artificial turf absorbs heat and the surface temperature will rise in direct sunlight during the summer months. You should still be able to walk on it barefoot under normal conditions, but on particularly hot days a quick spray with a garden hose will bring the surface temperature down. Shaded areas and lighter-colored turf products tend to stay cooler.

q: Does artificial turf smell?

A: Modern turf products have largely eliminated the plastic odor that older generations of artificial grass were known for. If you notice any smell after installation, it typically fades within a few days. For pet areas, occasional rinsing with water and a mild cleaning solution like Simple Green will prevent any odor buildup from pet waste. Our pet-specific turf products also include antimicrobial infill that helps control odor at the source.

Q: HOW MUCH DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF COST?

A: The cost of an artificial turf project depends on the size of the area, the turf product selected, and whether you're doing a DIY install or hiring our crew for professional installation. We offer wholesale pricing on all of our products and provide free quotes for every project. Contact us with your project details and we'll give you accurate pricing.

Q: DO YOU OFFER FINANCING?

A: Yes. We've partnered with Hearth to offer financing options including $0 down and 0% interest plans for qualified buyers. Loan amounts are available up to $250,000, no home equity is required, and there are no prepayment penalties. You can prequalify in minutes without affecting your credit score.

Q: HOW MUCH CAN i SAVE ON WATER WITH ARTIFICIAL TURF?

A: Most homeowners in Utah and Idaho save between $1,200 and $2,400 per year on water costs after switching to artificial turf, depending on the size of the lawn being replaced and local water rates. Turf eliminates outdoor irrigation entirely, which is the largest source of residential water consumption in the region.

Q: WHAT MAINTENANCE DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF REQUIRE?

A: Artificial turf requires very little maintenance compared to natural grass. The two most important tools are a leaf blower for clearing debris and a power broom for keeping the turf blades upright in high-traffic areas. Occasional rinsing with a hose will keep the surface clean. For pet areas, regular rinsing with water and a mild cleaning solution will prevent odor buildup. There is no mowing, watering, fertilizing, or aerating required.
