Safe, Clean Play Surfaces for Kids

Playground safety turf is specifically engineered to protect children from falls while providing a clean, comfortable surface for play. Unlike natural grass that becomes muddy and uneven, or wood chips that get everywhere and need constant replacement, safety turf stays consistently safe and attractive year-round.

We install playground turf for homes, schools, daycare centers, and community playgrounds throughout Lehigh Acres. The turf we use meets or exceeds ASTM safety standards for fall height protection, providing cushioning that reduces injury risk from falls and tumbles. Parents and facility managers choose safety turf because it works better than traditional playground surfaces in every way.

Your kids deserve a safe place to play that doesn't turn into a mud pit after rain or require constant maintenance to stay usable. Playground turf solves these problems while creating an attractive play area that your children will love and you can feel good about.

Why Playground Turf Is Safer

Playground safety turf provides protection that natural grass and other traditional surfaces simply cannot match:

  • Fall Protection: Specialized padding underneath the turf absorbs impact from falls, reducing injuries from playground equipment.
  • Consistent Cushioning: Unlike natural grass that wears thin in high-traffic areas, safety turf maintains protection across the entire surface.
  • No Tripping Hazards: Level surfaces without holes, roots, or uneven spots that can cause falls.
  • Excellent Drainage: Water drains through quickly, eliminating slippery mud puddles that create hazards after rain.
  • Non-Toxic Materials: All components are child-safe and free from harmful chemicals, pesticides, or fertilizers.
  • Splinter-Free: Unlike wood chips or mulch, synthetic turf has no sharp pieces that can injure small hands and knees.
  • Stays Cooler: Advanced turf technology helps surfaces stay cooler than rubber mats or bare ground in Florida sun.

Schools and daycares choose playground turf specifically for its safety advantages. The peace of mind knowing children are playing on a surface designed to protect them is worth far more than the cost of installation.

How We Install Playground Turf

Playground turf installation requires specialized knowledge of safety standards and proper padding systems. Here's what sets our installations apart:

We start by preparing a level base that promotes drainage and provides a stable foundation. Then we install impact-absorbing padding underneath the turf. The thickness and type of padding depends on the height of your playground equipment and the fall protection requirements.

The turf itself is specially designed for playgrounds, with soft fibers that feel comfortable for children who spend time sitting and playing on the surface. We use infill materials that enhance cushioning while keeping the turf resilient and durable.

All seams are carefully secured and all edges are properly finished to eliminate tripping hazards. For commercial installations, we document that our work meets relevant safety standards and provide certification if required.

The result is a play surface that looks inviting, performs safely, and lasts for many years with minimal upkeep. Most residential installations are completed in one to two days.
