Canonical: https://artificialturfcanada.ca

Artificial grass for backyards and dogs, putting greens, playgrounds, balconies and sports fields. Real prices, free calculators, and one request to a local installer who measures and quotes.

## Every kind of turf job, one request

Backyards and front lawns, dog runs, putting greens, balconies, daycares, cricket pitches, batting cages, gyms and full sports fields. Each request goes to an installer who does that kind of work.

- [Artificial Grass Installation](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/artificial-grass-installation) - A local installer digs out the old lawn, builds a compacted gravel base that drains, and lays, seams and secures the turf so it stays flat through Ontario winters.
- [Pet Turf and Dog Runs](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/pet-turf) - Pet turf is built to drain urine through the backing and the base, with an infill that controls odour. A local installer builds it for the dogs you have and the yard they use.
- [Backyard Putting Greens](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/putting-greens) - A shaped base, dense short-pile golf turf, real cups and a fringe for chipping. A local installer designs it for the space you have and the putts you want to practise.
- [Balcony, Rooftop and Patio Turf](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/balcony-rooftop-turf) - Turf on concrete, decking or a roof membrane: no digging, but drainage, weight and your condo's rules decide what can go down and how.
- [Playground and Daycare Turf](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/playground-turf) - Turf over a shock-absorbing pad, matched to the fall height of the equipment above it. A local installer builds it for child care centres, schools, parks and backyards.
- [Synthetic Turf Sports Fields](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/sports-field-turf) - Full-size and small-sided fields for soccer, football, rugby, lacrosse and field hockey: the base and drainage, the turf and infill system, line markings and a field that lasts a decade.
- [Baseball and Batting Cage Turf](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/baseball-turf) - Batting cages, pitching tunnels, infields, base paths and indoor training floors: turf and pads that take cleats, sliding and thousands of balls.
- [Artificial Cricket Pitches](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/cricket-pitches) - Non-turf cricket strips for club grounds, school fields, backyard practice nets and indoor lanes, built on a firm, level base so the ball bounces true.
- [Indoor Turf for Gyms and Facilities](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/indoor-turf) - Turf over concrete for gyms, sled and agility tracks, sports academies and indoor fields: the right pile, a pad where people fall or land, and no infill mess.
- [Golf Turf for Tee Lines and Simulators](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/golf-turf) - Turf that takes a club strike: hitting strips, simulator bays, range tee lines and chipping areas, paired with putting turf where you want to roll putts.
- [Commercial Artificial Turf](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/commercial-turf) - Turf for restaurant patios, rental and condo landscaping, office terraces, dog daycares, hotels and events: green year-round, no mowing contract, built for heavier use.
- [Artificial Turf Rolls and Supply](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/turf-rolls) - Turf by the roll or cut to length, plus infill, weed barrier, seam tape, adhesive and nails, for anyone installing it themselves or a contractor buying for a job.
- [Recycled and Used Turf](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/recycled-turf) - Turf pulled up from sports fields and resold for batting cages, dog runs, gyms, farm and budget projects. Cheap and tough, but it looks like what it is.
- [Artificial Turf Cleaning and Repair](https://artificialturfcanada.ca/services/turf-cleaning-repair) - A professional clean deodorizes, power-brushes and tops up infill. Repairs fix lifted seams, burns, holes and edges that have come loose.

## Before you call anyone

Artificial Turf Canada is a referral service, not an installer. We explain how turf is built and what it costs, then put you in touch with a local company that does the work.

## Questions people ask

### Is Artificial Turf Canada a turf company?

No. We are a free referral service. We don’t make, stock or install turf. We pass your request to one local installer or supplier who does that kind of job in your area; they measure, quote and do the work, and you deal with them directly.

### How much does artificial turf cost in Ontario?

Published Ontario installed prices run $5–$22 per sq ft, and most backyards land at $10–$20 per sq ft, before HST. Pet turf and putting greens cost more. The cost guide lists every price and where it comes from.

### Does artificial grass survive an Ontario winter?

Yes, if the base is right. A compacted gravel base that drains is what keeps it flat through freeze-thaw. Snow can stay on it or be cleared with a plastic shovel or a leaf blower; skip metal blades and sharp ice-melt that can scrape the fibres.

### Which areas do you cover?

Toronto and the GTA (Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville, Burlington, Milton and Durham), Hamilton and Niagara, Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph, London, Windsor, Barrie, Ottawa and Kingston. Elsewhere in Ontario, send the request anyway and we’ll say if we can help.

### Can I just buy turf and install it myself?

Yes. Pick “Turf rolls or supply” on the request form and we’ll pass it to a supplier. The roll and infill calculators tell you how much to order, and the installation guide covers the base, seams and edges.
