Install of the Month: MB Outdoor Services

Scottsdale, AZ — Backyard pools in Arizona are a paradise in the scorching desert heat, but the area surrounding them can be a challenge. Hard surfaces become unbearably hot, while natural grass struggles to survive the intense sun and constant foot traffic from swimmers. Homeowners want something soft and comfortable underfoot, especially for children playing poolside, but they also need a low-maintenance solution that looks great year-round. That’s why one Scottsdale family turned to MB Outdoor Services to create the perfect pool deck landscape using SGW artificial turf.

MB Outdoor Services recently installed 1,900 square feet of Synthetic Grass Warehouse’s Lush artificial grass in Scottsdale, AZ. TigerTurf Lush features a field green blend colorway with a combination of ribbed, tapered oval, and flared 3D W blade shapes for a plush and natural feel. With an approximately 85-ounce face weight and 2-inch pile height, Lush is specifically designed for residential applications with kids and pets, making it ideal for poolside installations. The synthetic turf’s unique blade combination creates an exceptionally soft surface that’s comfortable for barefoot traffic, which was the primary concern for this family. Each blade is manufactured with U.V. inhibitors to prevent fading under Arizona’s intense sunlight, ensuring the lawn maintains its vibrant green appearance through every season, year after year. Lush also features the K-29 Quadruple-Layered Non-Expansive Backing, which provides exceptional seam strength and a drainage rate of over 400 inches per hour per square yard, making post-swim cleanup easy and efficient. All SGW landscape turf is also lead-free and backed by an industry-leading 15-year warranty.

The homeowners were looking for a soft surface around their pool that would be safe and comfortable for their children. They chose Lush specifically for its exceptionally soft fibers, which feel plush underfoot and provide a comfortable surface for kids running in and out of the pool. The installation created a beautiful, low-maintenance backyard that eliminates the need for constant watering, mowing, and upkeep. According to Kali Miller, owner of MB Outdoor Services, low maintenance is the top reason homeowners in Scottsdale are switching to artificial grass. Between the unforgiving Arizona heat and the time required to maintain natural lawns, more families are discovering that synthetic turf offers the perfect solution for their outdoor spaces. The finished backyard now provides a luxurious pool area where the family can relax and play without worrying about muddy patches, dead grass, or constant yard work.
