How much does artificial turf cost in McAllen?
Most Hidalgo County homeowners pay between $8 and $15 per square foot installed. A typical 600 to 800 square foot backyard runs about $5,000 to $10,000, depending on how much excavation the yard needs, the turf grade you choose, and whether there are tight shapes or slopes to work around. We give you a fixed written number after measuring, not a range.
Does artificial turf get too hot in South Texas?
Turf does warm in direct Valley sun, and anyone who tells you otherwise has not installed here. We use cool-grade yarns with a reflective infill that measurably lowers surface temperature, and a thirty second rinse brings it down straight away. Shade sails, trees and covered patios make a large difference.
How long does artificial turf last?
A properly based system lasts 15 to 20 years in Valley conditions. The turf carries a 15 year manufacturer warranty. The part that actually determines lifespan is the base underneath it, which is why we excavate, compact and grade rather than laying turf over existing soil.
Will it really cut my water bill?
Yes, and it is usually the reason people call. Irrigation is the largest single household water use across South Texas through summer. Turf takes that line to zero, and removes mowing, fertilizer, weed control and reseeding with it.
Is it safe for dogs?
Our pet systems use a fully permeable backing with antimicrobial infill, so urine drains through faster than it would through soil and nothing sits on the surface. The turf is lead free and non toxic. Rinse it occasionally and it stays clean.
How long will my install take?
Most residential yards are finished in one to two days. We remove the existing surface, lay and compact the base, install and seam the turf, spread and brush in the infill, then clean the site. You can walk on it the same day.
Do you install over concrete?
Yes. Patios, balconies and pool surrounds are common for us. Concrete needs a drainage layer or a padded underlay so water moves rather than sitting under the turf, and we handle that as part of the install.
Do you offer financing?
We do, on approved credit, and most of our larger backyard projects use it. We will show you the monthly figure alongside the total before you decide anything.

How much turf do I need for my yard?
Measure the length and width of the area in feet and multiply them. A typical Rio Grande Valley back yard is 600 to 800 square feet, and a front yard is usually 400 to 600. We confirm the exact figure on the free on site measurement, including the waste allowance for seams and odd shapes.
