Question 1

Can artificial turf be installed around a pool?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A pool surround is one of the most common Houston turf applications. We engineer the system for drainage, chemical resistance, slip resistance and heat so it handles constant splash and barefoot traffic.

Question 2

Does pool water damage the turf?

Accepted Answer

We specify UV- and chemical-stable fibers that hold up to repeated chlorine and salt splash, so the surround does not fade or break down at the pool edge where exposure is heaviest.

Question 3

Is pool turf slippery when wet?

Accepted Answer

Built correctly, a properly infilled, textured turf surface gives surer barefoot traction than wet concrete or slick pavers — which is a main reason Houston pool owners move to turf around the deck.

Question 4

How does water drain off a turf pool surround?

Accepted Answer

We grade the base and use free-draining backing so splash and storm water move off the surround and away from the pool structure quickly. Where the deck has drainage infrastructure, we integrate the turf assembly with it.

Question 5

Will the turf get too hot for bare feet?

Accepted Answer

Turf can run warmer than grass in direct sun. We offer cooler-surface infill options that reduce surface temperature, and we discuss shade and orientation so the surround stays comfortable for bare feet.

Question 6

Can you install turf on an elevated pool deck?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Elevated and rooftop pool decks follow our rooftop assembly methodology, with drainage and slip-sheet layers that protect the deck membrane and its warranty.
