Artificial turf selection guide
Hamilton-area customers can choose from landscape, pet, putting, play and specialty turf systems. The right product is the one whose yarn, pile, backing, drainage and complete installation assembly fit the space.
Start with the application
Product specifications matter, but base depth, compaction, drainage, seam location, edges and infill often determine whether the surface performs after installation.
Why: a full, lawn-like appearance for front yards, backyards, courtyards and general residential use. Balance softness with fibre recovery and realistic sheen.
Why: shorter, accessible fibres and a system designed around drainage, rinsing and repeatable cleaning. Odour control depends on the complete system and care plan.
Why: a dense, low-pile surface selected for predictable ball roll. Base shape, cups, contours, fringe, infill and maintenance are part of the design.
Why: durable turf for backyard play and activity zones. Equipment, accessibility, fall zones and any required impact layer must be defined before product selection.
Why: a denser, resilient surface for shared spaces, hospitality and property amenities. Traffic, furniture, cleaning, service access and replacement planning matter.
Why: application-specific surfaces for training, temporary displays, rooftops and other specialty uses. Performance requirements should lead the specification.
