Artificial Turf Installation in Houston, TX
Artificial Turf & Putting Green Installation in Houston, TX
Artificial turf, custom putting greens and pet turf for Houston homeowners and businesses. Innovative Turf Design installs across the Heights, Memorial, Spring Branch, West University and neighborhoods all over the city.
Houston sits on gumbo clay, the kind that holds water for days after a storm and then shrinks and cracks by August. Add shade from big oaks, small inner-loop lots and heavy summer rain, and it’s no wonder grass struggles here. Turf sits on a compacted decomposed granite base built to drain, so your yard stays even and green all year.

How Much Does Artificial Turf Cost in Houston, TX?
In 2026, artificial turf installation in Houston typically ranges from $5 to $20 per square foot installed, depending on several factors:
- Turf grade and product — pile height, blade shape and infill type affect both cost and feel.
- Site preparation — removing existing grass, grading and installing a compacted decomposed granite base.
- Drainage — Houston’s clay soil often needs extra grading and drainage work so water leaves the yard instead of sitting on it.
- Project complexity — curves, slopes and putting green contours require more labor.
- Square footage — larger jobs often benefit from better per-square-foot pricing.
Putting greens typically run $10 to $20 per square foot installed. We match competitor pricing and offer financing.

Yes. Shade from big oaks and pines is one of the most common reasons Houston homeowners switch to turf. Grass thins out and turns to mud under the trees, while artificial turf stays green and even in full shade.
