BOCA RATON, Fla., May 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- After years of HOA restrictions and city ordinances preventing homeowners from installing artificial grass, the negative public perception and stigma of fake grass finally looks to be a thing of the past. Though drought stricken states like California have seen a huge surge in demand based on necessity that has not stopped Florida from seeing the same type of demand for artificial grass.

Artificial grass installation by Turf Concepts.

Turf Concepts, an artificial grass installation company based in Boca Raton, has seen unprecedented growth over the past 12 months. "We've been in business for 17 years, and our business has more than doubled just in the past year alone," owner Glen Minnis explained. "Homeowners just don't want to take care of their lawns anymore, and now they realize they don't have to."

And it's not just the mowing, weeds and watering that are bothering homeowners. Minnis and his crew recently installed artificial grass for a Jupiter, FL homeowner, converting an area of natural grass surrounding a pool. According to Minnis, the owner was having a difficult time keeping their pool clean. "They were tired of all the grass bits, insects and other junk getting into their pool, and they just realized the upkeep of their lawn was also affecting the upkeep of their pool. All of it just wasn't worth it for them anymore."

The Jupiter project converted 1,428 sq. ft. of natural grass to "Everglade Spring Pro", a product available through Synthetic Grass Warehouse (SGW). At 55 gallons of water per square foot per year needed to maintain natural grass, the homeowner can expect to save nearly 80,000 gallons of water per year. The Jupiter project also won Turf Concepts "Install of the Month" honors, an SGW program that features installations from landscapers across the nation.
