Synthetic Grass, Artificial Turf and more...

Muddy Dog Paws causing you trouble? Synthetic lawn is the answer.

Synthetic Grass — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 17:47:10 +0000

This time of year many people call to inquire if synthetic lawn can solve the muddy dog paw problem. The answer of course is a resounding YES! Even if an area doesn’t drain well, synthetic lawn with the properly installed base prep can hold water and shed moisture better than natural grass. In rainy conditions, the lawn area is still usable and will not get the dogs paws muddy. Wouldn’t it be nice to get rid of this problem once and for all? Synthetic lawn is the answer for muddy dog paws.

Artificial grass project in Alameda

Synthetic Grass — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 20:53:12 +0000

A retiree in Alameda was sick of mowing the grass. PolyGrass was the answer. The house doesn’t have to be brand new to need synthetic grass, you just need to be done mowing your lawn forever to get artificial grass from PolyGrass

Free up your time with fake grass!

Synthetic Grass — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 22:06:46 +0000

Free time, the best benefit of all. Synthetic Turf requires very little maintenance, so that valuable hour or two per week you currently spend mowing and up keeping the lawn can be spent on other more enjoyable activities. How about pursuing more of the things you enjoy in life than chasing a lawn mower around your yard. For example, if it takes you 2.5 hours per week to maintain your lawn, and you’re a golfer playing a 6 hour round – that’s 22 rounds of golf in a year you can play with the time you saved from just NOT MOWING your yard anymore. Maybe that’s a bit of a stretch, but you get the point – no more mowing will give you more free time!

Fake Grass Can Save You Money

Synthetic Grass — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:46:09 +0000

Money in your pocket. You can purchase a synthetic lawn with an initial investment that will pay you back over time. The payback comes in the form of zero water costs, zero maintenance fees for mowing and fertilizing. In as short as 4-6 years you will more than re-coup your initial investment and be putting money in your pocket each month. Since Synthetic lawns can last 15 to 20 years, that’s thousands of dollars in savings over the lifetime of the product – savings and a great looking product, now that’s Synthetic Lawn!

Fake Grass and Pets – Synthetic Grass Eliminates Those Messy Paw Prints

Synthetic Grass — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 00:53:06 +0000

Pets Love Turf: This time of year the mud and mess of a traditional lawn would irritate homeowners who don’t’ want the muddy paws messing up the indoors. Synthetic turf solves that problem by removing the mud and the mess from the lawn. Synthetic turf drains well and allows liquids to drain through – while never staining or discoloring.

My friend had just cleaned his carpets for the hollidays. Two days later, his dogs dug a hole in his lawn and trampled mud all over the newley cleaned carpets. He was waiting for spring to have his artificial lawn installed, but now he’s having it done this weekend. “If only he would have listened to me sooner”

PolyGrass can help with the Santa Cruz Drought

Synthetic Grass — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 19:48:49 +0000

Not only is PolyGrass a gorgeous addition to your landscape, it requires no mowing, fertilizing or weeding, a plus in the environmentally conscious Santa Cruz area. While lawmakers are debating how to use the region’s water, your lawn could be water-free with PolyGrass. The Santa Cruz City Water Department has declared a Stage 2 Water Shortage Warning, which means every residence and business must reduce their water usage by 15%. PolyGrass will completely eliminate the water spent on your lawn, likely reducing your water usage by more than 15%. The savings on your water bill will more than pay for your valuable investment in the future of water-free landscaping.

In today’s seemingly constant water shortage, it pays to have water-free landscaping that not only looks, but feels like the real thing. PolyGrass is nothing like the fake grass from yesteryear, and its soft and lush texture will fool even the most discerning eyes.

Synthetic grass will help during the 2009 Drought and beyond!

Synthetic Grass — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 22:08:06 +0000

With 2 dry years behind us, 2009 with its lack of sustainable rainfall so far could very well be another drought year. In preparation for this upcoming 2009 drought, the government has already implemented a plan to purchase water from other sources. With this in mind, it looks like rationing will become mandatory in the upcoming summer months. To learn more about the 2009 drought plan, click here.

Now imagine what will happen when these drought plans become reality. The next step will be rationing, over usage penalties and price increases. Why not invest now in the future of the state by installing synthetic grass. If you’re like many Californians’ and you love the feel of real grass under your toes, then only do your front yard, or your back yard. Maybe you just replace that hard to upkeep area. Every bit can help not only the 2009 California drought but it can also save you money in the long run. Did you know that Traditional Lawn Costs (Average size lawn):

Maintenance
Water
Fertilizer, chemicals
8 Year total: $9,500

Synthetic Lawn Investment
Existing lawn removal
Base prep
Lawn installation
8 Year total: $6,500

Your Savings: $3,000
Synthetic grass not only saves you money, but can help the drought problems of California.

What people are saying about Polygrass artificial grass

Synthetic Grass — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 22:48:19 +0000

Hi Scott,

I couldn’t wait to tell you about all the comments and questions our neighbors have had today. As you know, I am a big gardener so it is not unusual for me to be in the front yard pruning or weeding or whatever. Lots of neighbors walk by all the time and we typically smile and nod at each other. Well today was a very different story. I was gardening for 4 hours in the front of the house and in that time almost a dozen people stopped to say “I really like it”. At first I thought they liked the flowers I was planting and there was a bit of the daughter/cow repartee like Fiddler on the Roof, but I finally got it as they started to ask lots of questions like – we have a dog and he pees on the lawn, how will that affect the polygrass? Or we have a dog and he digs up our lawn, can he do that with the polygrass? Then there were questions about gardening like – can the gophers dig through the polygrass? Of course there were several comments about the water shortage and how this was a smart thing to do.

Anyway, I didn’t have all the answers to their questions and finally ended up giving a few of them “samples” from a remnant that Jerry had left for us. David had been pretty happy with that 2 X 12 remnant and I don’t have the heart yet to tell him about my adventures. There is a big trailer here with the polygrass name and phone number, but these people were all walking with jogging suits on without pen and paper in hand. So I thought that if the company has a flyer or something of that nature that could be put in one of those information pockets – the way that some homes are advertized, we certainly would be willing to put it on our property. Also I thought I should ask you for some business cards and I will keep them in my garden tote so if someone asks about it in the future, I can tell them what I know and give them a card.

We are thrilled with the results and obviously our neighbors are also !

WOW, the new PolyGrass makes my back yard look amazing. Your crew was on time, communicated well and did an outstanding job on the install. It’s going to be so nice to entertain without the dirt and yard clippings getting in the pool. I was installing new sod most every year because of the dogs and am so glad we won’t have to deal with new sod and watering. I would recommend everyone upgrade their lawn!

San Jose Dog Runs – Hitachi Parks

Synthetic Grass — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 18:29:18 +0000

The City of San Jose wanted a maintenance free dog park and didn’t want the dogs to be able to kill the grass. Synthetic was the only way to go. It’s a 4,000 acre park at Hitachi parks off Bernal road in San Jose. They interviewed a lot of contractors but choose PolyGrass because of our high quality turf, and the fact that we are licensed, bonded and insured. The park turned out beautifully.

More reasons for artificial grass – synthetic lawn

Synthetic Grass — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 07:41:47 +0000

While saving water is very important, its not the only reason for using synthetic grass. Here are a few more reasons to consider artificial turf:

1. If you’re not watering your lawn by hand, then you must be using some sort of sprinkler system. If you’re using one of those “attached to a garden hose” sprinklers, then you’ve probably forgot about it while watching a football game. There’s nothing like watching the neighborhood kids playing in the new river you created for them.

2. You have a sprinkler system but for some reason it doesn’t turn off. A few years ago my old neighbor, who leaves for work much earlier than I do in the morning, left for work as normal. As I was driving past her house, I noticed the river running down the street. Being the nice neighbor I am, I shut off her sprinklers and left her a note on her door. I probably saved her a couple hundred dollars because she comes home later than I do as well (she was a store owner). Not to be rude, but all that water wasn’t helping that horrible looking, crab grass infested mess of a lawn. I only wish that synthetic grass was popular back then. I would have directed her to www.polygrass.com.

3. You have a sprinkler system that is a hassle to keep operational. Tired of adjusting, replacing and repairing them? Tired of those brown spots, running to the hardware store for parts or paying a gardener to constantly fix them? How about when the power goes off or you blew a fuse in the garage and didn’t realize it? Theres nothing like being woken up at 1am by your sprinklers. Oh great, now you have to figure out how to program the darn thing again. Artificial turf, synthetic grass, fake grass, synthetic turf; whatever you want to call it, is the perfect solution.

4. The Lawn Mower! Someone’s gotta do it, why me? I could write an entire blog about the lawn mower but I’ll save that one for another time. I’m sure you have plenty of stories to tell yourselves.
