Artificial turf offers more than just curb appeal—it’s a smart investment that saves time, money, and effort over the years. But one of the most common questions we hear is: how long does artificial turf last?

At Kingswood Turf, we install premium, high-performance turf built to stand the test of time. Let’s walk through what affects turf longevity and how to make your lawn look great for years to come.

Average Lifespan of Artificial Turf

High-quality artificial turf can last 15 to 20 years—and sometimes longer with proper care. While cheaper products may show wear sooner, turf from trusted installers like Kingswood Turf is engineered for durability and lasting performance.

What Affects Turf Longevity?

1. Turf Quality
Not all turf is created equal. Premium fibers resist UV fading, flattening, and tearing.

2. Installation Method
A solid base, proper compaction, and expert seaming are critical to long-term performance. That’s why Kingswood Turf follows a meticulous 4-step installation process.

3. Traffic & Usage
High-traffic areas like putting greens or dog runs may wear faster, but with proper infill and maintenance, they can still last over a decade.

4. UV Exposure
Turf exposed to intense sunlight needs UV-resistant materials, especially here in Texas. We only use turf built to handle extreme heat and sun.

5. Maintenance
While turf is low-maintenance, occasional brushing and rinsing will help it maintain its look and integrity.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Turf

While long-lasting, all turf eventually ages. Look for:

• Noticeable matting or flattening
• Discoloration or fading
• Loose seams or wrinkles
• Reduced drainage or pooling water

Kingswood Turf also offers turf removal and replacement, so if your old turf is past its prime, we can refresh your yard with a modern, long-lasting upgrade.
