If you own a home in an area that is drought stricken like Las Vegas, you’ve probably struggled with the ability to grow grass affectively.  It is one of the challenges of owning a home in a desert area run.  If you have pride in ownership you’ll want the inside of the house to look would just as good as the outside, and if the outside area tends to go over 100°for lengthy periods of time, you’re going to have to deal with the fact that you’re outside is going to begin to look like the desert no matter how you slice it.  Even when you begin to add copious amounts of water to the landscaping, it will still struggle to survive in the extreme heat of the desert.  You’ll continue to fight this battle over and over again, ultimately resulting in the grass products that you install looking far less green and lush than they did when they were first planted.  If you’re like most homeowners, you will probably be getting frustrated by this over time and ultimately considering other options.  One of the best things that you can do in order to save water in our community as well as improve the exterior look of your home is to consider the installation of artificial turf.  These synthetic products will not only provide the exterior of your home with a clean look, it will also be nearly maintenance free and will not age over time.  This makes it the perfect kind of ground covering for high traffic areas like pat runs or playing spaces for children.  It will also improve the value of your home due to the fact that it is going to be keeping its look all year long even during our hot summers.

If you’re considering removing your existing sod and replacing it with artificial turf, you’ll want to look into the rebates and programs that the Southern Nevada water authority provide.  You can get upwards of $3.00 per square foot rebated when you remove your existing grass and replace it with the artificial turf products.  You’ll need to follow specific procedure to get this done, and you’ll also need to have it professionally installed.  While this requirement may seem as though it is simply pushing business cords installation companies, what you’ll find is that the professional installation of artificial turf will age far better than any thing that you can do yourself.  The companies that do this professionally understand exactly how to prepare the area as well as lay down the under fill that will create the feel of the grass instead of it feeling hard underneath.  They also know how to stake it securely so that it will not slide or be compromised over time.  In high traffic areas this is going to be critical to your being happy with your installation over the years, so don’t try and do this one at home and just hire a professional.
