Pet turf

What we don't do

For clarity on scope:

  • We do not install natural sod or hydroseed lawns
  • We do not do full landscape architecture or plant design
  • We do not currently install our own hardscaping (patios, pavers, retaining walls, fire pits). We partner with trusted local hardscapers for combined projects.
  • We do not do turf repair for other companies' installations, except in limited cases
  • We do not sell turf materials to DIY installers or wholesale to other contractors

What makes Crescent Turf different from competitors

Drainage engineering

The biggest failure mode for artificial turf in Louisiana is drainage. Most installers use minimal base prep and rely on the turf's built-in perforations to handle water. We engineer the base layer specifically for Louisiana rain: graded compaction, crushed limestone base, French-drain integration where existing drainage systems are present, and turf backings rated for high-flow water transmission. Our installs are rated to handle 6+ inch downpours.

Owner on every estimate

Vinnie Campo, co-founder, personally visits properties for the initial site visit and quote. This is not a sales-team model. The person who scopes your project is the person accountable for it.

Speed of install

Typical residential installs run 2 to 3 working days, consecutive, with daily cleanup. Compared to landscape architecture firms that take weeks or months, and to concrete contractors who leave partial job sites over weekends, this is a materially different operating model.

Transparent pricing

Most Greater New Orleans artificial turf installers do not post pricing online. Crescent Turf posts per-square-foot ranges and typical project totals on the homepage and the pricing page. Detailed quotes are line-itemed and include every cost category: turf product, base prep, drainage work, infill, edging, labor, taxes.

Louisiana-specific product selection

We carry 10+ turf product lines and match them to specific use cases: cool-yarn products for full-sun installs, high-density face-weight products for shaded courtyards, dig-resistant products for dog yards, chlorine-resistant products for pool surrounds. Most competitors carry 1-2 SKUs and match every job to what they stock.

Common questions

Does artificial turf drain well in Louisiana rain?

Yes, when properly installed. Correctly installed artificial turf drains 30+ inches of water per hour, faster than natural grass. The critical factor is base preparation, not the turf itself. Poor base prep is the #1 reason for turf failure in the Gulf Coast climate.

How hot does artificial turf get in Louisiana summers?

Standard artificial turf in direct sun can reach 130 to 160°F on a 95°F day. Cool-yarn products reflect infrared radiation and run 15 to 25°F cooler. Zeolite or organic infill (vs. black crumb rubber) also reduces temperature significantly. A quick hose rinse drops surface temperature 20+ degrees within seconds.

Is artificial turf safe for pets and children?

Yes. All Crescent Turf products are lead-free and PFAS-free. Pet zones use antimicrobial infill that neutralizes ammonia at the molecular level. Play areas can be installed over ASTM F1292-rated shock pads for fall protection.

How much does artificial turf cost in New Orleans?

Residential installs in Greater New Orleans run $10 to $20 per square foot installed. Most full-yard residential projects total $12,000 to $30,000. Pricing depends on turf product, base prep complexity, drainage requirements, and total square footage. Larger projects come down on a per-foot basis.

How long does artificial turf installation take?

Most residential projects under 1,500 square feet install in 2 to 3 working days. Larger commercial projects run 5 to 10 days. Crescent Turf works consecutive days with daily cleanup — no half-finished job sites left over the weekend.

How long does artificial turf last?

Premium artificial turf lasts 15 to 25 years with proper installation and normal use. Crescent Turf provides a 15-year written warranty covering both the turf product and the installation workmanship.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. Crescent Turf offers 0% APR financing options on 12, 24, and 60-month terms. Most homeowners pay $200 to $400 per month for their install.

Does Crescent Turf service the Northshore?

Yes. Crescent Turf services all of St. Tammany Parish including Mandeville, Covington, Madisonville, Abita Springs, and Slidell. Northshore installs are priced the same as Southshore projects.

Does Crescent Turf install their own hardscaping?

Not currently. Crescent Turf focuses on artificial turf installation and partners with trusted local hardscapers for combined projects that need patios, walkways, pavers, or fire features. Customers who want a complete outdoor space transformation can coordinate through Crescent Turf.

Is Crescent Turf a franchise or nationally-owned?

Crescent Turf Co. is locally owned and operated in New Orleans. It is not a franchise of a national brand and is not owned by a national parent company.
