Non-slip backing texture
Backing designed to improve traction on wet poolside surfaces.

Cool-surface infill

How Our Pool Surround Turf Process Works
Step 1Poolside safety review
The surrounding area is assessed for slip resistance and splash exposure needs.
Step 2Chemical resistance prep
Materials are selected to withstand chlorine and pool chemical exposure.
Step 3Drainage slope grading
The base is graded to direct water runoff away from the pool area.
Step 4Non-slip turf installation
Turf with slip-resistant texture is installed around the pool perimeter.
Step 5Edge sealing
Turf edges near hardscape are sealed to prevent water infiltration.
Step 6Final safety check
The finished surface is tested for traction and drainage performance.
