Artificial turf

Baton Rouge Artificial Turf: Pool Surrounds, Dog Runs and Putting Greens

Turf goes where real grass keeps failing: the strip beside the pool, the dog run, the shaded backyard that never fills in. We install it ourselves on a compacted base that drains, in the pile height and color that fits the yard.

Straight pricing

What artificial turf costs, installed

Turf is priced per square foot and the base work under it is where the money goes. A compacted, permeable base is what keeps the surface flat and dry for years.

$16 to $20

per square foot installed, installed, varies by pile height and base work

Artificial turf is one of three services we warranty, along with drainage and irrigation, because we control every layer of the installation.

  • Pool surrounds

    No mud tracked into the pool, no mower near the coping.

  • Dog runs

    Drains through, rinses clean, no bare patches by the fence.

  • Putting greens

    Backyard greens with real bunkers and a sod border.

  • No-mow backyards

    Small yards and side strips where grass never had a chance.

Questions

Artificial Turf questions, answered straight

The questions homeowners ask on the assessment, with the answers Gerardo gives.

How long does artificial turf last in Louisiana heat?
Quality turf with a compacted, permeable base holds up 12 to 15 years in Baton Rouge sun. The base is what fails on cheap installs, which is why ours is warrantied.
Does artificial turf drain?
Yes, if the base under it is built to. We excavate, lay and compact a permeable base with a slight fall, so rain passes through the turf and leaves instead of ponding. On pool surrounds we add a rock border so splash-out goes to the base, not the coping.
Can dogs use artificial turf?
Yes. Dog runs are one of the most common turf jobs we do. The turf drains through, rinses clean with a hose, and there are no bare patches by the fence.
How much does artificial turf cost in Baton Rouge?
Installed turf from Hernandez Lawnscape runs about $16 to $20 per square foot depending on the product, the pile height and how much base work the area needs. Cheaper installs exist; they usually skip the base, and the turf shows it within a year.
Who installs the turf?
Our own crew. Turf is not subcontracted. The same people who grade the base lay the turf and finish the edges.
Does artificial turf drain?
Yes, when the base is built right. We compact a permeable base and, where the area holds water, tie in drainage first. A turf install on top of a wet spot just hides the wet spot.
Is turf good for dogs?
It is one of the most common reasons we install it. No mud, no bare patches, and it rinses clean.
Is artificial turf warrantied?
Yes. Turf is one of the three things we warranty, along with drainage and irrigation.
What is artificial grass, and how does it differ from natural grass?
Artificial grass, also known as synthetic or fake grass, is a man-made alternative to natural grass.
How long does artificial grass last?
High-quality artificial grass can last up to 15-20 years, depending on usage and proper maintenance.
Is artificial grass suitable for pets?
Yes, artificial grass is pet-friendly. It’s easy to clean and doesn’t get muddy, making it a great choice for pet owners
Do you provide installation services, and what's the process?
Yes, we offer professional installation services. Our process includes site preparation, base installation, and securing the artificial grass, ensuring a seamless and durable finish.
How do I clean and maintain artificial grass?
Artificial grass is low-maintenance. Regularly remove debris and pet waste, and rinse it with water as needed to keep it looking fresh and clean.
