A great artificial turf surface starts with what’s underneath it. GTR Turf installs synthetic turf for sports fields, backyards, putting greens, commercial properties, and more. Our team handles every stage of the project, from excavation and drainage to base preparation, turf installation, infill, and final grooming.
Natural grass takes constant work. It needs mowing, watering, fertilizing, and regular repairs, and even then, heavy rain can leave it muddy and unusable. Artificial turf offers a cleaner, more consistent surface that stays ready for use throughout the year with much less maintenance.
No Mowing, Watering, or Fertilizing
Artificial turf eliminates many of the weekly chores that come with natural grass. There is no mowing or watering schedule to keep up with. Routine care usually comes down to removing debris, brushing the turf fibers, and occasionally topping up infill in high-traffic areas.
Ready for Use After Wet Weather
A properly installed turf system is designed to move water through the surface and into the drainage and stone base below. That means fields, yards, and other turf areas can recover much more quickly after rain.
Made for Heavy Use
Artificial turf can handle the kind of traffic that quickly wears down natural grass. Sports fields can support practices and games without constantly developing worn goal areas or muddy patches. At home, the same durability makes turf a practical choice for dogs, children, and backyard sports.
Green Throughout the Year
Artificial turf stays consistent from season to season. You do not have to deal with brown summer patches, muddy spring lawns, or areas that struggle to grow because of shade or heavy foot traffic.
Consistent Footing
A properly prepared and graded surface provides consistent footing and predictable ball movement. For sports fields and play areas, shock-absorbing pads can also be installed beneath the turf to help soften impacts.
More Infill Options
Traditional rubber crumb is not the only option. Depending on the project, we can install organic and cooling infills designed to improve surface performance and help reduce heat during warmer weather.
Every turf project is different. A varsity football field has very different requirements from a backyard lawn or rooftop patio, so we select the turf system and build the base around how the space will actually be used.
Sports fields are at the core of what we do. GTR Turf installs synthetic turf systems for high schools, universities, parks, municipalities, and professional facilities.
We work with Shaw Sports Turf systems and plan each project around the requirements of the sport, the facility, and the playing schedule. Our goal is to keep the installation moving efficiently so your field is ready when the season begins.
Our sports turf installations include:
Artificial turf gives homeowners a lawn that stays green without constant mowing, watering, or patching. We can design systems for everyday backyard use, pets, play areas, or a combination of all three.
Pet turf systems are designed to drain quickly and rinse clean, while shock-absorbing pads can be added beneath children’s play areas.
Residential turf options include:
A backyard putting green gives you a consistent practice surface without the upkeep required by natural grass. We can shape the green around your property and customize it for putting, chipping, or broader golf practice.
We install:
Artificial turf works well in spaces that need to stay clean and attractive without requiring a full groundskeeping schedule. We install turf for parks, hospitality spaces, rooftops, retail areas, patios, and event venues.
Applications include:
Indoor turf is a practical option for gyms, training centres, and athletic facilities. It can be used for sled work, agility drills, team training, and functional fitness.
Indoor turf installations include:
Already have artificial turf? You do not always need to replace the entire system.
We inspect existing turf and the base underneath it before recommending the best solution. Depending on its condition, we can repair damaged areas, fix seams and inlays, replace worn turf, groom the surface, or add new infill.
Services include:
A turf surface is only as good as the foundation beneath it. Many long-term turf problems begin with poor grading, drainage, or base preparation, which is why we put so much attention into the work below the surface.
We begin by visiting the site to understand the project. Our team measures the area, checks the slope and soil conditions, reviews existing drainage, and talks with you about how the surface will be used. From there, we provide a written quote and project timeline.
Once we understand the site and its intended use, we recommend the turf, infill, and padding that best fit the project. We also plan the layout, drainage, and other details needed before installation begins.
We remove existing grass, roots, soil, and other material as needed. The native subgrade is then shaped and graded so water flows in the right direction.
Next, we install the drainage system and geotextile fabric before adding the crushed stone base. The stone is compacted and laser graded to create a smooth, stable foundation for the turf.
Once the base is ready, the turf rolls are positioned, cut, seamed, and secured. On sports fields, game lines, markings, and logos can be inlaid or tufted into the surface.
The final stage includes spreading and brushing in the infill, grooming the fibers upright, and cleaning the site. Before we leave, we walk through the completed project with you and explain any recommended maintenance and warranty information.
Choosing an artificial turf installer means trusting a team with everything from the foundation below the surface to the final look and performance of your turf. GTR Turf brings more than 20 years of synthetic turf experience to projects of all sizes, with crews that can manage the installation from base preparation through final grooming.
Whether you’re planning a sports field, commercial property, or residential project, our team focuses on building a durable surface around the way your space will actually be used.
GTR Turf can handle the construction of the base as well as the installation of the synthetic turf. Keeping these parts of the project under one team helps provide better continuity from site preparation through the finished surface.
GTR Turf has worked with Shaw Sports Turf since 2010. Shaw develops synthetic turf systems for a variety of athletic applications, with products designed and tested around factors such as surface performance, ball interaction, force reduction, and athlete movement. This gives GTR Turf access to systems suited to football, soccer, baseball, lacrosse, field hockey, and multi-sport facilities.
A smooth, stable base is an important part of a successful synthetic turf installation. GTR Turf uses precision grading and specialized installation equipment to prepare athletic surfaces before the turf is installed. Project timelines are also planned around the needs of the site, with scheduling, materials, base preparation, and installation considered before work begins.
GTR Turf also provides synthetic turf maintenance after installation. Services include grooming and ongoing upkeep designed to help fields and other turf surfaces continue performing as intended. The company also maintains turf systems installed by other contractors, not only its own projects.
GTR Turf supports artificial turf projects across Canada and the United States, with regional teams serving:

Artificial Turf Installation
Common questions about cost, timelines, lifespan and upkeep. If yours isn’t answered here, give our team a call.
Artificial turf installation costs vary depending on the size of the area, site preparation, drainage requirements, turf type, infill, and accessibility. GTR Turf provides a detailed quote based on the needs of your specific project.
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the project. Residential artificial turf installations are generally faster, while sports fields and larger commercial projects require additional time for excavation, drainage, grading, and base preparation.
The lifespan of artificial turf depends on the product, amount of use, installation quality, and ongoing maintenance. A properly installed and maintained turf system can provide many years of use, while a well-built base may last through future turf replacements.
Artificial turf requires much less maintenance than natural grass. Regular care typically includes removing debris, brushing the turf fibers, and checking infill in high-traffic areas. GTR Turf also provides professional turf maintenance, grooming, and repair services.
Yes. GTR Turf can replace worn artificial turf and repair issues such as damaged areas, seams, inlays, and base problems. We can assess the condition of your existing turf system and recommend whether a repair or full replacement makes the most sense.
