The base is the whole job
We excavate 3–4 inches, lay class II base, and compact it in lifts — not one thick pass. A base compacted in one pass keeps settling for a year and that is where the dips and wrinkles come from.

Colton installs on the schedule most weeks
Colton lots tend to be tight, older, and stuck with sprinkler systems that leak more than they water. We pull the lawn, cap the lines, compact a real base, and hand you one written price before the first shovel goes in.

Why Homeowners Call Us
Small yard, big difference. Here is what Colton homeowners tell us once the mower is gone for good.
Most Colton homes are watering an older, patchy lawn through a system that was never balanced, so half the water lands on the sidewalk. Turf ends that line item entirely.
No mower, no edger, no green waste bin, no gardener showing up at 7am. Saturday morning is yours again.
No bare patches where the sprinkler never reached, no reseeding every fall, no excuses when company comes over.
Permeable base and antimicrobial infill means urine flushes straight through instead of sitting in the soil. No mud, no smell, no paw prints down the hallway.
No mud, no foxtails, no fertilizer or weed killer in the dirt they are rolling around in. Padded underlay under play structures if you want it.
Good turf on a properly compacted base outlasts three or four rounds of resodding — and it never needs to be replaced because the sprinkler timer failed.
Call now and get a written estimate — not a ballpark over the phone.
We measure your yard, check the drainage, and leave you a real number the same visit.
Google Reviews
Colton installs, with the neighborhood and the job listed on each review.
“Small yard but they treated it like a big job. Found two broken sprinkler lines during demo, capped them, and never charged extra for it.”
“The edge along my walkway is dead straight. Neighbors keep asking who did it. Written price at the estimate matched the final invoice exactly.”
“Our back slope always washed out. They regraded it, put in the base in layers, and after the first real rain there was nothing sitting on the surface.”
“Two big dogs and a dirt run. Pet infill and nailed edges, and it hoses off in a couple of minutes. Should have done it years ago.”
Talk to a local turf expert — the same person who will run your job.
Why Turf Mind
On a smaller Colton lot every edge and every transition is visible from the porch, so the finish work matters as much as the base.



Older neighborhoods around South Colton and Cooley Ranch have decades of settled soil, buried sprinkler runs, and concrete added over the years. We plan the demo around what is actually under the grass instead of guessing.
The person who measures your yard works for us, and so does every installer who shows up. Nobody is handing your job off to a day crew they have never met.
3–4 inches of class II base, compacted in lifts, graded to slope. The base is what fails on cheap installs — not the turf.
15-year turf warranty plus our own workmanship guarantee, handed to you on paper before you pay anything.
Several turf grades and flexible project scopes, so we can shape the job around the yard you actually want. One written price up front, no surprises.
Same-week estimates most weeks. We give you a start date, we keep it, and we haul off every scrap before we leave.

How We Build It
Almost every failed turf yard we get called out to rebuild failed for the same four reasons. Here is how we handle each one.

We excavate 3–4 inches, lay class II base, and compact it in lifts — not one thick pass. A base compacted in one pass keeps settling for a year and that is where the dips and wrinkles come from.

We grade to slope away from the house and check the low spots with water before anything green goes down. Permeable backing only matters if the base under it actually moves water.

Every roll runs the same direction so the color matches in sunlight. Seams get tape and adhesive, then get nailed off. A visible seam is the fastest way to tell a rushed install.

Infill goes in at the right rate and gets broomed in so blades stand up and stay up. Perimeters get bender board or nailed edging every few inches so dogs and hoses cannot lift an edge.

Perfect For
Wet pool decking, a dead side yard nobody walks in, a dog run that turns to mud every winter — these are the areas homeowners tell us they are happiest they finally fixed.

Our Process
Most Colton yards wrap in 1 to 2 days. You get the start date, the crew, and the written price before anything comes out.
We measure, check your grade and drainage, show you turf samples you can feel, and hand you a written price. Usually 30 minutes.
Old sod, weeds, and 3–4 inches of soil come out. Sprinkler lines get capped. Everything leaves in our truck the same day.
Class II base goes in and gets compacted in lifts, graded to slope so water moves off the yard instead of pooling against the house.
Turf laid with the grain matched, seams taped and glued, edges nailed every few inches, then infill broomed in so the blades stand up.
We blow down the hardscape, load out every scrap, then walk the yard with you before the job is closed out.
Start with step one — it is free and it takes 30 minutes.
