Artificial Turf for Pool Surrounds & Decks

Natural grass and swimming pools are a constant conflict in Utah’s climate. Mowing near the water sends clippings into your filters, while splashing chlorine creates dead brown patches in your sod. Wasatch Turf Pros specializes in "Pool-Grade" synthetic turf systems that solve these problems permanently. Featuring rapid-drainage backing and CoolPlay™ heat-reduction technology, our pool surrounds provide a soft, slip-resistant, and chemical-free oasis that stays 15°F cooler than standard turf—perfect for bare feet in the Utah heat.

Cleaner Water. Cooler Feet. Zero Grass Clippings.

A swimming pool should be a place of relaxation, not a source of extra yard work. At Wasatch Turf Pros, we transform high-maintenance pool areas into pristine, resort-style retreats. Our pool-specific turf systems are engineered to handle constant moisture, heavy foot traffic, and the intense UV exposure of the Wasatch Front.

🌊 The "Pool-Pro" Advantage: Why Turf Wins

  • Filter-Friendly Living: Stop "skimming" your life away. Artificial turf eliminates mowing near the pool edge, meaning zero grass clippings ever reach your water or clog your expensive filtration system.

  • CoolPlay™ Technology (Standard): Utah summers make concrete and standard turf scorching. We include heat-reducing infill as a standard for all pool projects, lowering surface temperatures by up to 15°F. A quick splash from the pool cools it even further.

  • Advanced "Anti-Slip" Drainage: Our perforated backing drains water at 30+ inches per hour. This prevents puddles on the deck and creates a high-traction, slip-resistant surface that is significantly safer for running kids than wet concrete or tile.

  • Chemical-Free Water: By removing the need for fertilizers and herbicides around your pool, you eliminate toxic runoff that can throw off your pool’s pH balance and increase your chemical costs.

🛠️ The Wasatch "Splash-Zone" Process

Pool installations require precise engineering to ensure water moves away from the pool and into the drainage system.

  1. Drainage Slope Assessment: We evaluate your deck’s pitch to ensure splash-water and rain are directed away from the pool coping and home foundation.

  2. Sub-Surface Preparation: We excavate existing sod or prepare existing concrete/paver surfaces with specialized drainage mat underlayments to prevent mold or standing water.

  3. Chlorine-Resistant Fiber Fitting: We use high-grade polyethylene fibers that are chemically stable, ensuring that splashed pool water won't cause discoloration or fiber breakdown.

  4. Laser-Trimmed Coping Transitions: We hand-trim every inch of turf to create a perfectly flush transition against your pool coping, stone, or concrete decking.

  5. Industrial Edge Anchoring: We utilize perimeter bender boards to create a permanent, sharp boundary that prevents edges from lifting, even with heavy "jump-in" traffic.

  6. Safety & Maintenance Walkthrough: We test the drainage flow and show you the simple "Hose-Down" routine to keep your surround looking brand new for 20 years.

💰 Pool Surround Investment

Pool turf is a specialized installation. It requires higher-grade infill (CoolPlay) and more complex "detail work" around curves and equipment.
