Inside or outside, the sky's the limit! Southwest Greens of Illinois delivers custom design professionalism for golf greens in a range of sizes and shapes for every client.

Synthetic golf turfs call for a high level of mastery for design and installation. With our roots planted in the golf industry since 1996, we have truly mastered the art of golf construction. Turf blending, undulations, breaks and bunkers name just a few of the design elements key for real looking and rolling golf greens. With so many additional architectural features to think about over a more basic artificial, golf green construction cost averages from $20 to $25 per square foot, more or less based upon region, accessibility and features.
The high quality of the materials we use is a very important factor in delivering an excellent golf green. Our professional products offer the rich, natural green look of real grass as well as the gentle feel and true performance characteristics free of nylon and other popular materials used in many artificial golf greens.
Southwest Greens of Illinois is the recognized leader in the artificial grass industry. Our dedication to research and development allows us to offer the highest quality and most advanced materials on the market today. With a variety of turf products made to simulate the look and feel of natural grass, our custom designs reflect the unique needs, climates and conditions of any area.

Will the artificial grass decline over time? How tough is the turf?
Southwest Greens of Illinois's first installations are 20 years old or older and continue to have the rich green color and texture of natural grass. Our UV-resistant artificial grass products look and function like new because they are crafted to withstand heavy traffic, extreme weather conditions and temperature fluctuations for all-season use. All installations come complete including a one-year workmanship warranty and manufacturer's warranty that includes fading.
Our synthetic turf is designed to be used and is highly recommended in busy areas or for long-term sporting purposes
Usually, artificial turf is dumped directly into landfills, using up precious space. Shaw offers a better alternative through the Green Edge Recycling Program. Once artificial grass is removed, we are prepared to repurpose it in several different ways including carpet backing, mats, rugs, sheet goods and more.
Sand infill from the artificial grass product is mechanically extracted from the turf, separated and then put through a cleaning process. The infill can then be used in future fields or used as materials for other products.
Shaw has recycled more than half of a billion pounds of carpet since 2007 and opened two state-of-the-art recycling facilities — Evergreen (nylon 6 recycling) and Re2E (Reclaim to Energy). Today, Shaw offers hundreds of fully certified Cradle to Cradle flooring products.
Our artificial grass products need very little care. For most synthetic grass applications, using a leaf blower and water hose to remove lawn and pet debris is enough to keep the surface clear. For golf greens, regular upkeep by your local Southwest Greens of Illinois representative every 12-18 months is recommended; we will ensure smooth putts with regular check-ups that include rolling the green and inspecting the areas around the cups for any adjustments.
Highly trained Southwest Greens of Illinois designers and installers are the only personnel authorized to design and install our artificial turf materials. DIY purchases are available with consultation but will void any installation warranty
There are numerous reasons why artificial grass is an ideal option for Naperville pet
owners! First, it's much easier to maintain than real grass — you won't have to worry
about mowing, saving you precious time and hard-earned money.
Additionally, synthetic grass is more
durable than natural grass, so it
can withstand pets playing. Plus,
synthetic grass is chemical-free
and chemical-free, making it healthy for your
pets.
It's not easy for fleas, ticks, and other pests to
survive in the artificial
turf. While we can’t guarantee that your yard will be 100%
pest-free, you can be sure they will be virtually
eliminated. Because there’s no soil to
support their nesting, you have to keep an eye out for any
accumulation of leaves or debris that might
make a good breeding ground for ticks and
fleas. As long as you keep up with your
artificial lawn regularly, there will be barely any
pests.
Absolutely, our synthetic
grass has the appearance and texture of live grass, so your furry friends
will be able to play on it like
they would a live
lawn. They can roll around on the grass to their heart's content!
Our synthetic
grass is made to be
durable and able to withstand damage, so it can withstand digging without being harmed.
However, if your four-legged family
members are persistent diggers, we recommend taking measures to stop them from digging in the
grass.
Absolutely! Cleaning
synthetic turf is
straightforward! You can
simply spray it down with clean
water to remove any twigs. For more
thorough cleaning, you can use a mild detergent and a soft-bristled brush to
clean the grass. Take a look at our complete
cleaning guide for more tips.
Synthetic
turf is odorless, so if any smells do occur,
it’s usually caused by dog urine. Many dogs prefer to use one area of the lawn to do their business,
so sometimes, you can get a little more of a build-up
of odor. Southwest Green's pet-turf system is designed
to help neutralize odors, but there are steps you
can take to ensure there are no lingering odors linger. We advise you use a solution
of equal parts water and white vinegar to spray Fido’s
favorite bathroom area. Let it dry to neutralize any unpleasant odor, if the our system was not used.
Our high-end synthetic turf is designed to be long-lasting and
durable, with a lifespan of up to twenty years with
proper maintenance. However, the
lifespan of your grass may depend on factors such as the
traffic
and how well it's maintained. Our
sun-resistant synthetic turf
products look and function like new because they are
built to withstand frequent use, weather extremes, and temperature changes for all-year use.
All installations come complete with a
1-year workmanship warranty and a
maker's warranty that covers
fading and discoloration.
The cost of synthetic grass
for dogs can fluctuate depending on
factors such as the dimensions of your yard and the
type of grass you choose. We offer a range
of synthetic grass solutions to fit different
price ranges and needs, so we
suggest contacting us for a customized quote.
While it's feasible to
lay down pet turf yourself, we recommend employing a
professional to ensure that the job is done
accurately. Our skilled team can help you create and put
in place a pet-friendly synthetic grass solution that meets your
individual requirements and
liking.
