Despite this, residents have decided to install synthetic grass on their properties. In the Bay Area, beautification as well as gopher holes have been major reasons for switching to artificial grass.<\/p> <p>Forever Greens recently installed 6,000 square feet of SGW\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sgwflorida.com\/orlando\/product\/tigerturf\/everglade-fescue-pro\/\">Everglade Fescue Pro<\/a>\u00a0in this unique backyard.\u00a0Everglade Fescue Pro offers a drainage rate of 30+ inches of rain per hour per square yard. It has a dual coloring of field green and olive green, which gives the appearance of a natural lawn. The product is tough and durable to handle moderate to heavy traffic, yet is still soft and pliable.<\/p> <p>The homeowners of the featured backyard wanted a unique installation on his large property that complements the rest of the yard. Mike O\u2019Neill, the owner of Forever Greens, found this installation to be a challenging yet satisfying project. \u201cInstalling 6,000 square feet wasn\u2019t the biggest hurdle we encountered. Seaming the turf and switching directions every five feet for the mow lines was the challenge for us,\u201d O\u2019Neill said. The homeowner wanted the lawn to be the focal point of the yard, and Forever Greens worked to provide just that. Additionally, having such a large backyard, this installation saved him $1,000\/month on his water bill.<\/p> <p>Many homeowners in the Bay Area have had difficulty with gophers in their lawns, and in a 6,000 square feet backyard, it\u2019s only harder to relieve the problem. \u201cGophers are notorious for digging up holes in the lawns,\u201d O\u2019Neill said. Gophers dig anywhere from 6 inches to 6 feet underground, and will eat any vegetation they can find. Their burrows are often shared with other animals such as bugs, rodents, and lizards. Installing turf allows homeowners to have the beautiful green lawn they want and prevent nature\u2019s critters from entering the property from the ground.<\/p> <p>Forever Greens takes pride in installing various types of hardscape and landscape, including turf, all over the San Francisco Bay Area. They work hard to always provide a high quality installation in addition to providing top notch customer service. \u201cWe always take care of our customers,\u201d said O\u2019Neill. \u201cWe have the ability to give them a huge variety of home improvement options like patios, driveways, putting greens, on top of the turf installations\u201d.<\/p> <p>The company started in 2005 with only installing putting greens, and used to be known as Forever Putting Greens. They now offer full artificial landscaping installations, including patios, driveways, and much more.<\/p> <p>Forever Greens is Synthetic Grass Warehouse Install of the Month winner for July 2018.<\/p> <p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3801\" src=\"https:\/\/sgwflorida.com\/orlando\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/02\/install.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p> <div class=\"fusion-button-wrapper\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-custom fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-span-no fusion-has-button-gradient special_anim-btn\" style=\"--button_accent_color:#000000;--button_accent_hover_color:#ffffff;--button_border_hover_color:#000000;--button_border_width-top:1px;--button_border_width-right:1px;--button_border_width-bottom:1px;--button_border_width-left:1px;--button_gradient_top_color:rgba(255,255,255,0);--button_gradient_bottom_color:rgba(255,255,255,0);--button_gradient_top_color_hover:rgba(255,255,255,0);--button_gradient_bottom_color_hover:rgba(0,0,0,0);--button_text_transform:uppercase;--button_font_size:20px;--button_padding-top:16px;--button_padding-right:30px;--button_padding-bottom:16px;--button_padding-left:30px;--button_margin-top:30px;--button_margin-right:12px;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/syntheticgrasswarehouse.com\/company\/blog\/install-of-the-month\/install-of-the-month-photo-submission\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-icon-divider button-icon-divider-left\"><i class=\"fa-angle-double-right fas awb-button__icon awb-button__icon--default\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default fusion-button-text-left\">Submit Your Photos<\/span><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Turf Used as Solution for Lawn Critters Despite the drought  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":25071,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-install-of-the-month"],"acf":{"ask_jw_page_link":"","global_photo_sets":"","section_1":{"header":"","textblock":""},"section_2":{"textblock":""},"section_3":{"header":"","textblock":""},"section_4":{"textblock":""},"section_5":{"header":"","textblock":""},"warranty":{"textblock":""},"section_6":{"header":"","textblock":""},"video_link":"","transcript":"","video_link_proof":"","transcript_proof":""},"origin_id":"","yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
