Artificial Turf
Artificial turf is one of the most practical upgrades a Phoenix homeowner can make.
No water bills, no mowing, and it stays green through the hottest Arizona summers. The key is installation — done right, it looks and feels like real grass. Done wrong, it looks like a putting green in a parking lot.
How artificial turf is installed in Arizona: The process starts with excavation — typically 3 to 4 inches — and removal of existing material. A compacted decomposed granite or road base is installed to create a stable, draining foundation. A weed barrier goes down next, followed by the turf itself — cut, seamed, and secured at the edges. Infill material (silica sand or crumb rubber) is then spread across the surface and brushed in to support the fibers and give the turf a natural, upright look. Final grooming and an edge inspection close out the job.
Citiscapes installs artificial turf for front yards, backyard lawns, putting greens, dog runs, and play areas across Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley. We use commercial-grade turf products built specifically for Arizona's climate — UV-stabilized fibers, adequate drainage rates, and infill systems appropriate for the application and the heat.
The quality difference in artificial turf installations comes down to two things: the product and the base. Cheap turf on a poorly prepared base will wrinkle, drain slowly, and break down within a few seasons. Quality turf on a properly compacted, graded base will hold its shape, drain cleanly after monsoon rain, and look sharp for 15 years or more.
We walk every client through product selection before we schedule a crew.
Pile height, blade shape, color blend, and infill type all affect how the finished turf looks and performs — especially in direct Phoenix sun. We'll show you samples and make a recommendation based on your specific use case.
We stand behind every install with a workmanship guarantee. From HOA front yards to full backyard builds, Citiscapes has done it across the Valley.
