About Playground Turf
Green, clean play areas all year
Playground turf is artificial grass designed for play, usually laid over a drained base and often a shock-absorbing pad. It stays green, does not turn to mud and looks great.
We prepare the base, install the pad where needed, lay turf, seam it neatly and secure the edges.
- Always green and tidy
- No mud or mowing
- Shock pad options for cushioning
- Great drainage

Photos on this site are illustrative and show typical playgrounds and yards, not completed Music City Playgrounds projects. Every play area is planned and confirmed with a visit before work begins, and permit, HOA and local requirements depend on your property and location. Figures in our tools are planning estimates only.
Is turf safe for playgrounds?
Turf with a suitable shock pad can cushion falls. We recommend products and thicknesses for your equipment.
Does turf get hot?
Artificial turf can get warm in direct sun. Shade helps.
Does it need mowing?
No. A little brushing and rinsing keeps it fresh.
