The Case for Turf 🌱 Why Artificial Grass Makes Sense in Late Summer

Less water, less work, and a lawn that looks great year-round.

By the time late summer rolls around in South Louisiana, many lawns are looking tired. Between scorching temperatures, heavy foot traffic, and unpredictable rain, even the best-kept yards can struggle to stay green.

That’s where turf comes in.

Our current project had the client's battle with patchy grass for long enough. The goal was simple: create a beautiful, low-maintenance yard that would look great year-round, be durable enough for dogs, and eliminate the frustration of inconsistent grass growth.

💧 Say Goodbye to Sky-High Water Bills

Grass is thirsty—especially in August.

• Turf doesn’t need regular watering, which means lower utility bills and less stress on your irrigation system.

• In areas with watering restrictions or drought conditions, turf is a smart and sustainable solution.

🛠 Maintenance-Free Looks, 24/7

Forget the mower, the weed-eater, and the endless edging.

• Turf stays green and perfectly manicured with minimal upkeep.

• No more muddy patches, bare spots, or pests hiding in the grass.

☀️ Summer Is a Great Time to Install

Many homeowners wait until fall, but late summer is actually ideal:

• Why? Crews have better availability, and your turf will be ready to enjoy by the time the cooler weather (and tailgating season) hits.

• Plus, turf gives you instant curb appeal without waiting for grass to grow.

👣 Perfect for High-Traffic Areas

Have pets, kids, or frequent gatherings? Turf holds up.

• It’s tough, durable, and doesn’t get patchy in high-use zones.

• Great for play areas, dog runs, pool decks, courtyards, or shady spots where real grass struggles.

✅ Clean, Safe, and Allergen-Free

No more mud tracked into the house after a rainstorm.

• Turf doesn’t harbor pests or produce pollen the way natural grass can.

• Optional infill materials can reduce heat retention and improve comfort underfoot.
