How to Upgrade Your Pool Deck with Artificial Grass
July 25, 2019
Artificial grass has boomed in popularity for lawns, golf courses, pet turf, and sports fields. Its versatility, durability, and low maintenance have made it an obvious choice for many residential and commercial landscaping projects. However, one area that many homeowners may have not considered for artificial grass use is their pool deck. Recently, artificial grass for pool decking has become an increasingly popular option over stone, concrete, and even real grass due to its many benefits.
Artificial grass’s main advantage is that it never needs to be mowed, trimmed, fertilized, or otherwise regularly maintained. While many homeowners opt for synthetic turf because this saves them time and money, it’s also a health and safety benefit. Eliminating the use of gasoline-powered tools and toxic fertilizer chemicals around your pool will keep your pool water safer and cleaner for your family and will lessen the impact on your pool filter.
Synthetic turf’s astonishing drainage capabilities are another factor that makes it the perfect solution for pool decks. Splashing and playing in the pool can introduce a lot of water to the surrounding area. With real grass, this results in water-logged surfaces and even the growth of mold or mildew. However, artificial grass can handle excessive water easily thanks to its ultra-efficient drainage system. SGW turf products can drain at a rate of more than 30 inches per hour per square foot, which means there’s never any mud, slippery surfaces, or broken grass blades to contend with. Your artificial grass will feel completely dry within the hour, which creates a safer and more comfortable environment for those in and around the pool area.
