Artificial turf is a special type of grass product that is also known as fake grass or synthetic grass. Artificial grass is a wonderful low-maintenance alternative to natural grass and is increasingly being used across a variety of residential and commercial settings. But perhaps where artificial turf installation is most popular is in the arena of sports. That's certainly where we see the most requests for artificial turf installation by our company! Why? Well, take a look at a few of the big benefits we can offer with artificial turf installation and see for yourself:

1. Consistent Playing Surface

Certainly, the biggest benefit of artificial turf installation is at tennis courts -- and not just big league tennis courts. According to Gitnux, the vast majority of test matches are in the amateur league, with the split being about 95% amateur and 5% professional. In both categories, predictability and consistency are key to a fair and enjoyable game. Artificial turf assists here by delivering a consistent playing surface that players can trust will deliver predictable ball bounce and speed. This is a big benefit when compared to other popular types of tennis court installations, such as natural grass and clay courts.

2. Low Maintenance

Not only can artificial turf installation courts feature a more consistent surface over natural grass and clay courts, but they also do so with less maintenance. Courts made of artificial turf don't need to be watered, mowed, or fertilized. That equates to overall reduced costs! The only regular maintenance artificial turf courts need is the occasional brushing and rinsing that will redistribute the infill and remove any unwanted debris.

3. Durable With a Long Life

Artificial turf installations also have the benefit of a long lifespan. These types of tennis courts are capable of withstanding plenty of foot traffic and even the most intense gameplay from professionals and amateurs alike. Thus, choosing quality artificial turf installation is a strong long-term investment for your tennis court.

Naturally, if you are primarily acquainted with clay tennis courts or natural grass courts, you might still be hesitant about an artificial turf installation. Well, if so, our team is here to answer all of your questions and help you see all the great reasons why an artificial turf installation is the best installation.
