Artificial Grass Information

Every project is custom to our clients’ preferences and space. There are a lot of variables that go into an artificial grass application. Typically, landscape turf projects range from $8-$15 per sq/ft and putting green projects somewhere between $18-$25 per sq/ft.

Yes, during the summer months, your synthetic turf will get hot. On average, the turf will be 15- 20 degrees warmer than ambient temperatures. So if it is 90º in the sun, the turf could be 105-110º. This is on par with the heat retention of other surfaces like sand, asphalt, or stone pavers.

Absolutely. Pets love artificial turf.

Most synthetic turf installs will take about a week or less. If we start your install on Monday, you will most likely be enjoying your new space by the weekend.

We have been installing synthetic turf applications for 18 years and have not seen any of our products fail short of their warranty. Some of our very first projects 18 years ago still look great today. Obviously, use and care play a big part in longevity, but artificial turf is very durable and made to last.

Most turf will clean off when using a water hose. Some soapy water and a stiff bristle brush will usually do the trick for most stains and spills. If not, give us a call and we’ll suggest a cleaning product for the specific need.

It sure does, nearly all of our turf projects come with a limited time warranty.

Artificial turf is meant to be maintenance free. Most of the time, simply blowing the leaves and debris off the artificial grass once or twice a week is all you need to do. If your turf needs a little more love, just give us a call and we’ll come out and make sure it is looking and performing like the day it was installed.

The cost of sports field turf depends on the size of the field, sport type, site conditions, base preparation, drainage, turf system, infill, field markings, logos, and whether the project is a new installation, replacement, or restoration. The best way to get accurate pricing is to request a quote so Playrite can evaluate the field and recommend the right system.

Yes. Playrite can evaluate aging synthetic sports fields and recommend whether the surface needs maintenance, restoration, or replacement. Older turf systems can lose performance over time due to wear, compaction, drainage issues, infill movement, or outdated turf technology. A field assessment helps determine the best path forward.

Sports field turf requires regular maintenance to support performance, drainage, safety, and appearance. Typical maintenance may include removing debris, brushing or grooming the fibers, checking infill levels, inspecting seams and high-wear areas, and addressing repairs before they become larger issues. The maintenance plan should match the field’s usage and sport requirements.

The lifespan of artificial sports field turf depends on usage volume, sport type, installation quality, maintenance, weather exposure, and the turf system selected. Many synthetic turf sports fields are designed for years of heavy use, but high-traffic facilities need routine maintenance and periodic evaluation to keep the surface performing properly.

Artificial turf can be used for soccer fields, football fields, baseball fields, multi-purpose fields, lacrosse fields, field hockey fields, bocce courts, croquet courts, and other athletic surfaces.

The installation timeline depends on the field size, existing surface conditions, drainage needs, base preparation, weather, field markings, and project scope.

Playrite can assess the project and outline the expected timeline during the quote process.

Pet turf needs to be installed with drainage in mind so liquids can move through the turf system instead of sitting on the surface. Playrite’s pet turf solutions are designed to support drainage and help control pet odors when properly installed and maintained. Regular cleanup is still important, especially in high-use dog areas.
