Artificial Turf Outperforms Natural Sod in the Summer

Scott Marks

Now that it’s summer, many homeowners will spend hours on their landscaping. Raleigh residents with natural sod lawns know the hassle of scheduling times to water and mow. Artificial grass installations eliminate the need for tedious maintenance, especially during the summer when natural sod needs the most attention. Get your life back this summer and opt for artificial turf to meet all your landscaping needs.

Summer Lawn Care

During the warmer months, homeowners with natural sod can be found outside meticulously manicuring their lawns. It’s recommended that you leave your grass at a specific length, keep lawn mower blades sharp and sprinkler systems at the ready. This means hours and hours of planning just to make sure your lawn survives the summer. Thankfully, artificial grass is a breeze to care for and requires almost no maintenance all year long. Instead of spending hours every week maintaining your lawn, you can devote mere minutes every month to care for your artificial turf. This means more time spent with family, friends and life’s other passions.

Drought-friendly

It’s no secret that natural sod is thirsty for water, and even more so in the summer when water is scarce. Homeowners may unintentionally over water their lawns to combat the dry environment. Even worse, this increase in water use can be useless, as most of it evaporates before it’s absorbed by the soil. Typically, Raleigh homeowners with artificial grass installed will brush and hose down their lawns a few times a month. In the summer, you can skip the hose all together and give your lawn an extra brushing to make up for it. Unless there is debris that needs to be removed with water, you can eliminate all outdoor water usage for a few months which is great for both the environment and your water bill.

Keep the Surface Cool

There was a time when artificial grass was not the ideal product that it is now. It was stiff, coarse and got extremely hot in the sun. It was rendered useless in the summer. Thankfully this is not an industry standard anymore. SYNLawn has even taken keeping cool a step further. We developed HeatBlock Technology to effectively regulate the surface temperature of your artificial lawn. The surface of your lawn reflects sunlight to reduce heat build-up, which keeps your grass cool to the touch.

We also offer an antimicrobial turf cooling solution called T Cool. This innovative system lowers the surface temperatures of your turf by up to 50 degrees, as well as reduces odors that are caused by pet waste. The system stores moisture, and slowly releases it as the temperatures outside rise. This is extremely important for Raleigh residents with pets and small children who use the lawn most frequently. They don’t have to worry about burnt paws or little toes any longer. Your family can also enjoy your outdoor space without unpleasant smells. Artificial turf can be used year-round, making it the perfect destination for all your summer activities.

The Marks Family are true professionals. Answer calls/texts immediately. They treated my home like it was there own. They also hold their employees to the same standard. Clean and efficient, when they left it was like (other than the job) they were never there.

We can’t say enough about the great service and products from Southeast Turf! From the first meeting to the installation, they were great to deal with. Not to mention how awesome my yard looks. I think several of my neighbors are going to have it done as well because they too were impressed! Thank you!!

I had a small fenced in area off our patio that our dogs used. Southeast Turf installed artificial grass and it looks great. The team showed up on time and did a great job. They are booked out for a few months because they are in high demand. We love our new dog area. No more dirty dog feet, no more digging and no more smell!!

Turf installation at our beach home. Two large dogs with a small side yard creates challenges for potty time and maintaining your yard. They were able to solve this concern with turf installation that provides a safe area for our furbabies and a beautiful physical appearance as well. The installation was professionally handled and we are loving our new area!
