Question 1

Is artificial pet turf safe for dogs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our pet turf is non-toxic, lead-free, and engineered specifically for dogs. The fibers include PawGuard™ technology to protect paws and joints, plus Microban® antimicrobial protection to fight bacteria and odor. Unlike natural grass, there are no pesticides, fertilizers, fleas, ticks, or muddy holes for dogs to injure themselves on. Safe for puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between.

Question 2

How long does pet turf last?

Accepted Answer

A professionally installed pet turf system lasts 15 to 20+ years. Our turf carries up to a 15-year manufacturer warranty covering UV protection, wear resistance, and material integrity. The engineered base beneath the turf is built to last even longer with proper installation and routine care.

Question 3

How much does pet turf installation cost in Charlotte?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on square footage, site prep, drainage requirements, and turf selection. Most residential pet turf projects in the Charlotte area range from a few thousand dollars for small backyards to larger investments for full yards or commercial spaces. We provide free, no-obligation quotes after a quick on-site consultation.

Question 4

How does pet turf handle dog urine and odor?

Accepted Answer

Urine drains straight through the turf into our engineered base below, so nothing pools on the surface. Microban® antimicrobial fibers and specialty odor-control infill work together to keep bacteria and smell in check between rinses. For most Charlotte homeowners, a quick spray with the hose once or twice a week handles routine cleanup.

Question 5

Does pet turf get too hot in the Charlotte summer?

Accepted Answer

Like any outdoor surface, pet turf warms in direct sun, but modern systems dissipate heat far better than older synthetics. Lighter-colored infill, partial shade, and a quick rinse on the hottest days keep it comfortable for pets. Most Charlotte dogs use their turf year-round without issue, even through July and August.
