The Hammocks
Master-Planned · Family
The Hammocks has 325 homes built since 2017, so many lawns are young and still filling in. Synthetic turf gives a new yard an even green surface from the start, with no waiting on sod or running irrigation.
A lawn that stays green and low-maintenance year-round in West Lake.
Artificial Turf
Natural grass in West Lake is a constant battle. Between the heat, the Palm Beach County water restrictions, the summer rainy season that turns yards into mud, and the chinch bugs and lawn diseases that thrive in this climate, keeping a natural lawn looking decent requires significant time, money, and water. Even homeowners who invest heavily in irrigation and lawn care often end up with patchy, uneven turf that never quite meets the standard of a new home.
Patios Pools Driveways Inc. is a licensed and insured outdoor contractor serving West Lake and the surrounding Palm Beach County communities. From what the process involves to which turf products are available, we help homeowners find the synthetic grass solution that performs in West Lake's specific climate and conditions.
Artificial Turf
Artificial turf has changed significantly over the past decade. Modern synthetic grass products look and feel substantially different from the flat, plastic-looking turf of earlier generations — the fiber technology, blade shapes, and infill systems used today produce a result that reads as natural grass from most viewing distances and holds up far better under foot traffic, the intense West Lake sun, and the demands of everyday outdoor use.
In West Lake, artificial turf addresses problems that natural lawn grass simply cannot solve reliably. Shade areas along fence lines or between closely spaced homes where grass refuses to establish. Side yards and dog runs where pet traffic destroys natural turf within weeks. Pool surrounds where maintaining living grass next to a chlorinated pool is an ongoing battle.
The installation process matters as much as the product. A properly prepared base — compacted aggregate at the correct depth with adequate drainage — is what separates a turf installation that stays flat, drains well, and looks right for years from one that develops soft spots, holds water, and starts to ripple within a Palm Beach County rainy season. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. installs turf with the same attention to base preparation and drainage that applies to every other surface we install.
Artificial Turf
Artificial turf eliminates the maintenance cycle that natural lawn grass demands in West Lake — mowing, fertilizing, irrigating, treating for pests and disease — and replaces it with a surface that looks green and even year-round without any of that ongoing input, including the lawn that runs right up to paver pool decks. It is also a smart response to Palm Beach County's watering restrictions.
The right turf product also gives homeowners meaningful control over the finished result. Blade height, color variation, texture, and infill type all contribute to how natural the installation looks and how it performs for the specific use case — whether that is a front yard lawn, a backyard play area for young children, a pet run, or a putting green.
A professionally installed artificial turf system in West Lake can help:
Turf Products
Every installation is different, and the right turf product depends on how the space will be used, what it needs to look like, and what conditions it will face. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. helps West Lake homeowners select the right product based on those factors.
Landscape turf is designed to replicate natural lawn grass as closely as possible — multi-tonal blade colors, varied blade shapes, and thatch layers that mimic the look and texture of real grass from ground level. It is the right choice for West Lake front yards, backyard lawns, and any area where the primary goal is a finished, natural-looking green surface with minimal maintenance.
Pet turf is engineered specifically for yards where dogs are a primary user. The fiber and infill systems used in pet turf installations are selected for drainage performance, odor resistance, and durability under the kind of digging, running, and repeated traffic that dogs produce. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. specifies pet turf installations with drainage as the primary design priority — critical given West Lake's heat and heavy rain.
Putting green turf is a specialty product with a very short, dense pile that allows a golf ball to roll true and consistently. Backyard putting greens are a popular addition in West Lake, where the outdoor living season is essentially year-round and homeowners have the space in a newer development to build one in. Putting greens can be shaped to virtually any contour, elevated, or integrated with surrounding turf, pavers, or landscape elements for a finished, intentional result.
Artificial turf installed around a pool needs to meet specific requirements. It needs to drain quickly, resist the bleaching effect of chlorinated water, and provide a comfortable surface underfoot in the direct West Lake sun. Pool surround turf applications use products with open drainage backing and infill systems suited for wet conditions, coordinated with the pool deck edge for a clean, finished transition.
Artificial Turf
Most West Lake homeowners who reach out about artificial turf installation have already tried everything else. They have reseeded, resodded, adjusted irrigation, treated for chinch bugs, and watched the same problem areas fail year after year. At some point, continuing to invest in natural grass solutions for areas that consistently fail is not a sound decision.
Once the turf is in, those problem areas are permanently resolved. The surface looks green and even, requires no ongoing care, and holds up through the same Palm Beach County conditions that defeated the natural lawn.
An artificial turf installation can help solve problems like:
Installation Quality
Artificial turf that is not installed with adequate drainage will hold water and develop odor problems — a real risk given West Lake's heavy summer rain. Turf that is installed over an improperly compacted base will develop soft spots and ripples. And turf products that are not rated for Palm Beach County's UV intensity will fade and degrade faster than their warranties suggest. These are the fundamentals that determine whether an artificial turf installation performs well for a decade or becomes a problem within a few seasons.
We focus on:
Outdoor Living
Artificial turf does not exist independently of the rest of the outdoor environment. It connects to paver edges, pool decks, planting borders, and hardscape elements — and how those transitions are handled affects both the appearance and the long-term performance of the installation. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. works across patios, pool decks, walkways, and driveways throughout West Lake, including paver walkways and paver driveways, which means turf installations can be designed and detailed in the context of everything surrounding them.
If you are planning a larger outdoor upgrade, your artificial turf can be designed to complement:

Turf pricing in West Lake is driven by three things: the area being covered, the product specified for the use — landscape, pet, or putting green — and the condition of the ground underneath. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. provides free in-person estimates across Palm Beach County so the figure reflects the real scope of the job.
For a West Lake yard, look for three things: UV rating so the color holds under Palm Beach County sun, multi-tonal blades so the surface reads as real grass rather than a flat green mat, and an open drainage backing that clears water fast during the rainy season. Beyond that, the product should suit the specific use.
High-quality artificial turf in West Lake typically lasts 15 to 20 years or more when properly installed. UV-rated products keep their color and fiber integrity through intense Palm Beach County sun, and a correctly prepared base prevents the soft spots and rippling that shorten turf life on poorly installed systems.
Absolutely — pet turf exists precisely for this, and it is what most West Lake dog owners end up with. The fiber and infill combination is specified for durability under repeated pet traffic and, critically, for fast drainage. In Palm Beach County heat, an installation that drains properly is the one that stays odor-free, so that is where the design attention goes.
It does work, with the right specification. Turf installed around a West Lake pool has to handle constant wet conditions: open drainage backing to shed water quickly, chlorine resistance so the color does not bleach, and UV-stable fibers that stay comfortable barefoot under Palm Beach County sun.
Artificial turf replaces the entire upkeep cycle that natural grass needs in Palm Beach County — mowing, feeding, watering, and treating for pests. Beyond that, it performs in West Lake yards where real grass never establishes properly: deep shade, pet areas, high-traffic walkways, and the ground around a pool.
It works well. On West Lake driveways and patios, as throughout Palm Beach County, turf strips between large-format pavers are a recognizable contemporary treatment, and turf is also used as decorative ground cover. The key is specifying a product suited to the conditions and traffic of that particular surface.
A backyard putting green is a specialty artificial turf installation using a short, dense pile product that lets a golf ball roll true and consistently. Greens can be shaped to nearly any contour and integrated with surrounding turf or pavers. They are popular in West Lake and across Palm Beach County, where the outdoor season runs essentially year-round.
It does. Artificial turf reaches higher surface temperatures than natural grass in direct sunlight, especially darker-toned products. In West Lake, the main strategies for managing that are choosing lighter-colored, UV-stable turf and using a quality infill system. Rinsing the surface with water before use also helps on the hottest Palm Beach County afternoons.
