Summit Pro 200
The flagship lawn surface: a dense 2-inch blade that reads as a manicured lawn and keeps its color through Castle Rock's intense sun and freeze-thaw swings.
Artificial Turf for Castle Rock's Turf-Limited Yards
Artificial Turf Installation in Castle Rock
With Castle Rock limiting new-home lawns to 500 square feet in back and none in front, artificial turf is how many homeowners keep a green lawn look without exceeding the limit or the town's water budget. We install synthetic lawns, pet areas, and putting greens that stay green through watering restrictions.
- Turf systems for lawns, pets, putting greens, and sports
- Eight-stage installation with engineered base and drainage
- Free turf consultations for Castle Rock homeowners

Match the Product to the Space
Every space uses turf differently. These are the products we install, each matched to a specific kind of use.
Sierra Select 169
A value-tier 1.69-inch blade with a clean, even look, sized right for the compact lawn footprint a new Castle Rock build allows.
Vista Flex Event Turf
Lightweight and flexible, this option lays over uneven ground and hillside sections without the prep a full lawn install needs.
Paw Pro K9 Turf
Rapid drainage and antimicrobial infill keep dog runs and high-traffic pet areas from holding odor.
Pro Tour Series
A true-roll putting surface with a realistic fringe, built for backyard short-game practice.
Pro Play Sports Blade
A durable, cushioned blade built to hold up under an active backyard sports space.
The Eight Stages Behind Every Lawn
A turf lawn is only as good as what is underneath it. This is the eight-stage system behind every installation.
-
01Excavation of Organic Material
We clear 4 to 6 inches of soil and organic matter down to stable ground, which on Castle Rock's rocky lots is where the real work starts.
-
02Subgrade Compaction
A plate compactor stabilizes the exposed subgrade so the base does not settle later and change the finished grade.
-
03Angular Gravel Base Installation
Four inches of open-graded angular gravel go down over geotextile fabric, giving the surface drainage and a foundation that will not shift.
-
04Let Turf Bake in Sun
The rolled turf sits out to warm in the sun, which softens the backing and works out wrinkles before it goes down.
-
05Crushed Refines Installation
A thin, compacted layer of crushed refines over the gravel gives the turf a smooth, uniform surface to rest on.
-
06Roll Out and Cut In Turf
The turf is rolled into place, trimmed to the approved lawn footprint, and matched for grain direction at every seam.
-
07Nail Down the Edges
Perimeter edging and nails hold the turf tight so it does not shift or lift at the borders over time.
-
08Spread Antimicrobial Infill
About 2 lbs per square foot of antimicrobial infill supports the blades, adds weight, and keeps odor under control, which matters for pet owners on a compact lot.
What Turf Solves on a Turf-Limited Lot
A Green Lawn Within the Turf Limit
New Castle Rock homes cap live lawn at 500 square feet in back with none in front. Artificial turf keeps a green lawn look on the approved footprint, or beyond it in areas where live grass is not allowed at all.
Zero Watering, Zero Waste
Artificial turf stays lush and green through every season without sprinklers, which fits a town that is actively managing its groundwater-dependent water supply.
Low Maintenance in Rocky, Clay-Heavy Soil
Turf skips the mowing, edging, and mud that heavy clay can hold onto after rain, draining fast and staying presentable even in high-traffic side yards.
Built for an Exposed Castle Rock Lot
Soft and non-toxic underfoot, the turf holds up to strong sun, wind, and snow load on an open new-construction lot without matting down.

Castle Rock Artificial Turf Questions
Does artificial turf count against the Castle Rock turf limit?
No. The town’s rule governs live grass, not artificial turf. Homeowners install synthetic turf specifically to get a green lawn look on front yards and larger backyard areas where live sod is not allowed.
Which turf product is right for my Castle Rock yard?
It depends on how the space is used. Summit Pro 200 is the flagship lawn surface, Sierra Select 169 covers budget-conscious projects, Paw Pro K9 is built for dogs, Pro Tour is for putting greens, Pro Play for sports areas, and Vista Flex for hillside sections. We match the product to the space during the consultation.
How does artificial turf handle a sloped Castle Rock lot?
The base system is built to hold on grade: excavated subgrade, compacted angular gravel, and a permeable backing that drains instead of pooling on a slope.
Is artificial turf safe for pets?
Yes. Paw Pro K9 turf is built for exactly this: fast drainage and antimicrobial infill keep dog runs from holding odor, and the blades hold up to digging and daily traffic.
Why does the base preparation matter so much on rocky ground?
Nearly every turf failure traces back to the base. Skipping excavation, compaction, or the gravel layer leads to settling and drainage problems, which rocky or clay-heavy Castle Rock soil makes more likely without proper prep.
