Turf Removal & Replacement

Signs Your Elizabeth Turf Needs Replacement

Artificial grass doesn't last forever. Even quality installations eventually wear out from years of sun exposure, foot traffic, and weather. If your turf is 10 to 15 years old, it's probably showing signs of age. Maybe the grass blades are matted down and won't stand up anymore. Perhaps the color has faded to an unnatural shade. You might notice seams separating or edges pulling up.

Some homeowners and businesses in Elizabeth have older turf installed by previous owners or companies no longer in business. The technology has improved dramatically in recent years. New artificial grass looks more realistic, drains better, stays cooler, and lasts longer than products from even five years ago. If your turf looks tired or performs poorly, replacement gives you a fresh start with better materials.

How We Remove Old Artificial Grass

Removing old turf properly is important for your new installation. We don't just peel it up and leave you with a mess. Here's what our removal process includes:

• Complete turf extraction. We remove all the old grass, infill, and seaming materials down to the base layer.
• Base inspection and repair. We check the existing base for drainage issues, settling, or damage. If needed, we repair or rebuild the base before installing new turf.
• Proper disposal. Old artificial grass goes to recycling facilities when possible. We haul everything away so you don't deal with debris.
• Site preparation for new installation. We leave the area ready for your fresh turf, properly graded and compacted.
• Same-day or next-day installation. In most cases, we remove old turf and install new grass within one or two days to minimize disruption.

What New Turf Gives You

Replacing worn-out artificial grass transforms your property. New turf brings back that fresh, vibrant look you had when it was first installed. But you also get performance improvements from modern products. Today's turf drains faster, feels softer, resists fading better, and includes antimicrobial technology that older products lack.

If you're upgrading to specialized turf like pet-specific systems or adding features like a backyard putting green, removal and replacement is your chance to redesign the layout. We can change borders, adjust grades for better drainage, or expand the turfed area. Many Elizabeth homeowners use replacement as an opportunity to upgrade their entire outdoor space.

Removal and Replacement Pricing

Turf removal typically costs $2 to $4 per square foot, depending on the existing installation and disposal requirements. When combined with new turf installation, we often reduce the removal price since we're doing both jobs together. Total project cost depends on the quality of turf you choose and any base repairs needed. Most Elizabeth residential projects range from $5,000 to $15,000 for removal and new installation. The timeline is usually quick. Small yards take one day for removal and one day for installation. Larger projects might need two to three days total. We work efficiently to get your yard back in use fast. Ready for fresh, modern artificial grass at your Elizabeth property?
