Many homeowners have their own set of hesitations when it comes to switching to an artificial lawn. You might think it looks unrealistic or that it’s not going to work for you. Whatever your reasons may be, we want homeowners to know that not only has the technology made turf look more real than ever, it also saves you time and money all while being beneficial to the environment.

Switching to artificial turf helps lower water consumption rates by an exceptional amount. Did you know that in East Orange County, 98% of water consumption is residential. Irrigation systems in your household are contribute up to 60% of that consumption. An average of about 138 gallons of water are used per resident every day. Not only can you be helping to save water in our community, which is always at risk for water shortages, you’ll also be saving a lot of coin on that water bill.

In comparison to a natural lawn, artificial turf aids in the benefit of our ecosystem through environmental advantages. Did you know that mowing your natural lawn emits toxic compounds into the atmosphere? On top of that, running your lawn mower produces the same amount of pollution as driving your car 100-200 miles and responsible for 5% of the United States pollution. A synthetic grass lawn helps in the reduction of fossil fuels and helps reduce our environmental impact every single day.

Lastly, turf allows you to get rid of harmful fertilizers. With your natural lawn, you need to use fertilizers in order to keep it green. If you switch to artificial grass, you avoid fertilizers altogether. When it rains, the fertilizers you use on your lawn runs off into the drains and drains often lead into our water. You can completely eliminate the possibility of toxic runoff into oceans, rivers, lakes, and streams simply by making the switch.

At OC Turf & Putting Greens, we provide you with the safest and most reliable synthetic grass products on the market. All of our synthetic grass products are lead free, U.V. resistant, safe for pets and children and backed by a 15 year warranty. If you want to help the environment and make a difference without all the effort, give us a call.

Now that we have entered the season of thanks and gratitude, it’s time to remind ourselves of what we are thankful for. Living in California has given us lots of opportunities and benefits and we couldn’t think of a better place to do business. We love helping homeowners, businesses, and communities be thankful their lawn is now a low maintenance beautifier instead of a time wasting, patchy growth in the yard.

There are a million reasons to be thankful for turf this season and we’re going to share some of our favorites with you today!

1. Be thankful that the lawn mower is NO MORE! That’s right. You’ve sold the lawn mower to a neighbor and you can spend Saturdays on the patio instead of sweating and pushing a hunk of metal to make your lawn look presentable.
2. Be thankful your water bill has significantly decreased and you’re conserving water every single day! Isn’t it great? No more sprinklers. No more timer scheduling. No more water excess every week. Those lower numbers on a water bill can make ANY homeowner jump for joy.
3. Your pets are now running free on an evergreen lawn and they don’t know the difference! You can watch from the window and be completely worry free. The grass is pet friendly, non-toxic, and can drain urine faster than the natural lawn before it. They roll around, but they can’t get dusty, muddy, or dig holes. It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you.
4. Your lawn is no longer an open invitation to bugs! You’re celebrating just thinking about it. Turf means no puddles and no mud which means bugs aren’t being attracted and your backyard is suddenly a lot more tolerable.
5. Your kids are out there playing everyday and you know they’re going to be fine! What else could give you such peace of mind? Your turf is non-toxic, padded, and totally safe for children. Their playground is a safe haven in your yard and you don’t have to worry about anyone eating dirt, ingesting fertilizer, or trekking tiny mud prints on the carpet. Time to pour yourself a glass of wine to celebrate.
6. It’s cold, it’s hot. It’s sunny, it’s rainy and it truly doesn’t matter! You’re resting easy on the sofa knowing your yard is the best on the block. Because it won’t matter if something crazy happens and rogue snow falls in Southern California, your lawn is going to be green, beautiful, and the talk of the town.
7. You’re protected with a warranty and you know you’re good to go! The turf product you installed is covered by a 15 year warranty and you know that even if something tragic happens, you’ve got backup. Plus, your new artificial lawn is UV resistant so you don’t need to worry about fading. It’s going to look lush and green for years to come.
8. Last, but not least…your new artificial lawn looks good, feels good, and is the real deal! Nothing is going to give you more satisfaction than knowing you’ve chosen the best synthetic grass products in the industry. We provide all our customers with the highest quality and most realistic looking turf that has ever been made. With products that include a brown thatch layer or turf that includes brown shades for added realism, you can’t go wrong. It looks and feels like your natural grass, but you’re thankful it’s not.  

At OC Turf & Putting Greens, we take pride in providing our homeowners with the best synthetic grass products in the industry and giving you all something to be thankful for.

Choosing a suitable type of artificial grass is crucial for sustaining expected foot traffic. Whether your synthetic grass is installed in your residence or business, knowing foot traffic levels is imperative in increasing the life expectancy of your turf lawn!

At OC Turf & Putting Greens, we provide you with the best artificial turf products on the market. With various products in our inventory, we are able to supply you with beautiful synthetic grass products that are both safe and durable.

Consider these questions when deciding which turf product to go with:

Are there any children in the household?

Having children running around or playing would require artificial turf with a higher face weight. The higher the face weight, the thicker and more durable the turf will be. Check out our Diamond and Everglade lines. These products feature stiffer blade shapes that can withstand any amount of play!

Do I have any pets?

Our Pet Turf is an excellent line that is the perfect choice for your furry friends! It has a shorter pile height, which allows pets to run freely and makes cleaning up after them super easy. We recommend pairing your Pet Turf installation with our Pet System products that include: Durafill, Zeolite Max and Turf Fresh. These will aid in keeping your turf fresh and clean! All of our products feature a perforated backing, allowing liquids can drain through easily. This turf is extremely durable and will last for years to come!

Are you more laid back?

For those of you who just want to gaze at your newly installed synthetic grass lawn, look for products with longer blades and higher pile heights! The taller the blade the plusher your lawn will look. Check out our Sierra & Marquee lines. These products are perfect for leisure time and creating a beautiful and luxurious looking lawn.

Do you enjoy frequent company?

For those who enjoy barbeques and backyard parties, look into our products that are in between having a high face weight for durability but also a medium pile height for a sense of a lavish lawn. We recommend our Emerald and Majestic lines. These products will withstand medium levels of foot traffic, making it a perfect choice for active homeowners!

We hope this blog has helped you think a little bit about your foot traffic levels and what kind of turf products will work best for you. If you have further questions about choosing the right turf, feel free to contact us for your free estimate.
