Install of the Month: Natural Tech Artificial Grass & Landscaping
August 26, 2021
Lake Tahoe, CA — Balancing functionality with enhanced aesthetic appeal is a key priority for many property owners. One Lake Tahoe family opted for synthetic grass landscaping for their backyard in order to showcase the property’s surrounding natural landscape while still remaining comfortable and practical for the residents and their guests. In order to strike this balance and ensure a high-quality result, Natural Tech Artificial Grass & Landscaping was chosen to transform this Homewood lakefront oasis.
Natural Tech Artificial Grass & Landscaping recently installed 1,800 square feet of Synthetic Grass Warehouse’s Playground and Poly Putt 2-Tone in a home in Lake Tahoe, CA. Everlast Poly Putt 2-Tone — used for the putting green surface — features a dual coloring of field green and lime green, and it has a face weight of 50 ounces. With a 0.50-inch pile height, it is ideal for residential or professional putting green installations. Everlast Playground — used for the bulk of the landscape turf — has dual field green and olive green blade tones with brown thatch, and it has a pile height of 1.375 inches. With a 55-ounce face weight, it is ideal for landscapes with heavy foot traffic, including playgrounds and schoolyards. Both turf products are manufactured with UV inhibitors for long-lasting color that won’t fade with extended exposure to sunlight. All artificial grass products from Synthetic Grass Warehouse are non-toxic, lead-free, and will drain at a rate of 30 inches per hour per square yard.
Natural Tech’s client was seeking to renovate and upgrade their entire property to make it optimized for beachgoing and water sports. They wanted a landscaping solution that would fit in with the natural beauty of Lake Tahoe while offering superior functionality to any natural grass lawn. “SGW’s Playground was selected because it is more forgiving with foot traffic,” explains owner Robert Orlando. “It’s also easy to keep clean, which was a huge bonus with the pine trees located around the property. They love the way that the turf looks, and it looks taller than it really is.” Although the installation posed unique challenges, such as avoiding a bear and her cubs which had wandered onto the property, Natural Tech combined their landscaping expertise with top-tier SGW artificial grass to create a beautiful end result.
