There’s so many different turf options, which one is right for me?

by Feb 28, 2022Blog

With literally hundreds of different turf options to choose from, it can seem overwhelming to pick the winner! The best place to start is by writing down the most important characteristics you are looking for. These could include the length of the grass blades, the density, the colour, the warranty, the application, etc.

There are a handful of different turf suppliers, but the biggest difference is whether the turf is manufactured in China or the USA.

*Any of the above turf samples can be provided by request. During our on-site consultations, any relevant samples for your application will be presented, and we are always happy to help educate and answer any technical questions. In most cases, we can even show you a “finished product” of a past yard that had the same type of turf you are considering!
