Old turf removal and replacement in San Clemente, CA

When It's Time to Replace Your Artificial Grass

Artificial grass doesn't last forever. After years of use, exposure to sunlight, and normal wear, even high-quality turf eventually needs replacing. You might notice the fibers are matted down and won't stand up anymore. The color has faded from vibrant green to a dull gray-green. Seams are separating, or the backing is cracking and falling apart.

When your turf reaches this point, removal and replacement is the best solution. Trying to patch or repair severely worn turf usually doesn't work well. You end up with mismatched sections and continued deterioration.

We specialize in removing old artificial grass and installing new, modern turf in San Clemente homes and businesses. Today's turf products are significantly better than what was available even 5 years ago. You'll get improved durability, better drainage, more realistic appearance, and enhanced comfort.

Signs Your Turf Needs Replacing

Not sure if your artificial grass needs replacing or just maintenance? Here are the clear signs it's time for a replacement:

  • Severe fading: The color has changed from green to tan, gray, or white
  • Matted fibers: Grass blades lay flat and won't stand up even after brushing
  • Separated seams: Visible gaps between turf sections that expose the base
  • Backing deterioration: The backing is cracking, crumbling, or disintegrating
  • Poor drainage: Water pools on the surface instead of draining through
  • Persistent odors: Smells that won't go away even with thorough cleaning
  • Visible wear patterns: Bare spots or extremely thin areas from heavy traffic
  • Age: Turf is 10 to 15 years old and showing multiple signs of wear

Our Removal and Replacement Process

We make the removal and replacement process as smooth as possible. Most residential projects are completed in 2 to 3 days with minimal disruption to your property.

Step 1: Safe Removal

We carefully remove your old turf, nails, and edging materials. We dispose of everything properly and recycle the turf when possible. Your yard is left clean and ready for the new installation.

Step 2: Base Inspection and Repair

We inspect the existing base for issues like settling, poor drainage, or damage. If needed, we'll repair or upgrade the base to ensure your new turf has a solid foundation. This step is crucial for long-term performance.

Step 3: New Turf Installation

We install your new artificial grass using modern techniques and premium materials. You'll get invisible seams, secure edges, proper drainage, and a beautiful finish that looks and feels better than your old turf ever did.

Benefits of Upgrading to New Turf

Replacing old turf with modern products gives you immediate improvements. New artificial grass looks more realistic with varied blade colors and natural-looking textures. Drainage is dramatically better, with water flowing through in seconds instead of pooling. Durability is enhanced with stronger fibers and UV-resistant coatings that prevent fading.

You'll also get better warranties. Most modern turf comes with 10 to 15 year manufacturer warranties that cover fading, backing integrity, and material defects. Plus, today's turf is softer and more comfortable for bare feet, safer for kids and pets, and easier to clean and maintain.
