We could not be happier. NoCo Turf did a fantastic job on our yard. Our yard was nothing but dust and mud it was a complete disaster we called Brian he came out to the house and came up with a plan and recommended a pet turf that could stand up to the dogs. Two weeks later we had a great looking yard that could be used without worry and Brian and his talented hard working crew was able to get it done in one long day GREAT JOB. We would 110 % recommend NoCo Turf to anyone looking for a great looking usable turf lawn πππ

Expert Site Preparation for Turf in Denver, CO
Proper site preparation for turf is the most important step in any artificial turf installation. Without it, turf shifts, drains poorly, and wears out early. At Noco Turf CO., we handle every step before a single blade of turf goes down. We start by removing existing grass, roots, and debris from the area. Then we grade the ground so water flows away from your home and hardscapes. Denver yards present a specific challenge: the soil here is often clay-heavy, which holds water and resists drainage. We address this by excavating to the correct depth and replacing poor-performing soil with a compacted crushed-stone sub-base. A weed barrier goes down before the base layer, blocking regrowth from below. The result is a firm, level, well-draining foundation built to handle Denver's hot summers, rapid snowmelt, and freeze-thaw cycles. If your sprinkler system runs through the area, we cap those lines as part of the prep process. Every yard we prep in Denver is ready to support turf that looks clean and performs well for years. Contact Noco Turf CO. to schedule your site assessment.

Site Preparation for Turf FAQ
Common questions about site preparation for turf in Denver, CO.
Denver's clay-heavy soil holds water and does not drain well on its own, which causes turf to shift and pool if the ground is not properly prepped. A compacted crushed-stone sub-base replaces that poor-draining soil and gives your turf a stable, long-lasting foundation.
We remove existing grass, roots, and debris, then grade the area so water drains away from your home. We then install a compacted sub-base and a weed barrier before any turf goes down.
No, installing turf directly on Denver soil is not recommended because clay soil does not drain and causes the turf to sink, wrinkle, and retain moisture. Proper excavation and a crushed-stone sub-base are needed for the turf to perform correctly.
Existing sprinkler lines in the installation area are capped as part of our site preparation process. This prevents moisture from building up under the turf base after installation.
A properly graded and compacted sub-base allows water to move through the turf backing and away from the surface, preventing pooling after Denver's summer thunderstorms or spring snowmelt. Without that base, even high-quality turf will drain poorly.
Yes, we prep both front and back yard areas across Denver for artificial turf installation. Each site is assessed individually because yard size, slope, soil condition, and access points vary from property to property.
