How We Install Pet Turf: A Behind-the-Scenes Look from the Experts at West Palm Beach Artificial Turf

If you’re a pet parent in South Florida, you know how important it is to have a safe, clean, and durable space for your furry friends to play. At West Palm Beach Artificial Turf, we specialize in pet-friendly turf solutions that are as beautiful as they are functional. Today, we’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how we professionally install artificial turf designed specifically for pets.

Step 1: Consultation & Site Assessment

Every installation begins with a conversation. We come out to your home to assess your yard, discuss your pets' needs, and design a layout that keeps them happy and your lawn low-maintenance. Drainage, shade, and pet traffic patterns all play a role in our custom recommendations.

Step 2: Excavation & Base Prep

We remove the existing grass or surface and excavate to a depth of 3 to 5 inches. For pet turf, it’s crucial to create a solid yet well-draining base. We use a crushed granite or limestone base material and compact it thoroughly to eliminate uneven spots and prevent pooling.

Step 3: Installing a Pet-Friendly Drainage Layer

Next, we install a layer of weed barrier and add a special drainage grid or perforated padding designed to rapidly move liquids through the surface. This helps control pet odors and ensures your turf drains quickly after cleaning or rain.

Step 4: Laying the Turf

We roll out high-quality, pet-rated artificial grass that’s soft to the touch yet durable enough for even the most active dogs. The turf is cut and shaped to fit your space and securely seamed together using non-toxic adhesives or seam tape.

Step 5: Infill for Odor Control and Cushioning

For pet turf installations, we use an antimicrobial infill such as Envirofill or Zeofill. These materials help eliminate odors, reduce bacteria buildup, and provide a comfortable surface for pets to walk and lay on.

Step 6: Grooming and Final Touches

Once the turf is installed and infill added, we power broom the area to lift the blades and give it a natural look. We also inspect edges, clean the space, and walk through the final product with you to ensure you're completely satisfied.

Why Pet Turf?

Artificial turf for pets reduces muddy paws, prevents digging damage, and makes cleanup a breeze. Plus, our pet turf solutions are UV-resistant, safe for paws, and built to last in the Florida sun.
