Synthetic Turf Installation in Montreal

Synthetic turf has become an increasingly popular option for Montreal homeowners who want a green, usable lawn surface without the ongoing demands of natural grass. Our installations are designed specifically for Quebec's cold climate, using turf products rated for temperatures well below minus thirty degrees Celsius without cracking or becoming brittle. The process begins with excavation of the existing surface to a depth of four to six inches, followed by installation of a compacted granular base -- typically three-quarter-inch clear stone topped with stone dust -- that provides both stability and drainage. Proper drainage is critical in Montreal where heavy spring snowmelt and summer downpours can dump large volumes of water in a short period. We install our turf over a permeable base system that allows water to drain through at a rate sufficient to handle intense rainfall without surface ponding. The turf itself is secured with landscape spikes around the perimeter and seamed with outdoor-rated adhesive where panels meet. We offer several infill options depending on the intended use: silica sand for general lawns, rounded rubber granules for play areas where fall protection is needed, and antimicrobial zeolite-based infill for pet areas that helps control odors and bacteria. Seams are positioned away from high-traffic paths so they remain invisible over time. For pet owners, we can install a dedicated rinse system beneath the turf layer for easy cleaning. Synthetic turf eliminates mowing, watering, fertilizing, and the annual battle with grubs and weeds that natural lawns in Quebec demand, making it a practical choice for small yards, rooftop terraces, side yards with poor sun exposure, and dedicated children's play areas.
