Commercial Turf in Orlando, FL

Commercial turf is synthetic grass for properties other than single-family yards: office entries, restaurant patios, short-term rental backyards, HOA common areas, apartment dog parks, rooftop and balcony spaces, and event areas. Orlando's hospitality and vacation-rental market is a big part of this. Guests notice a muddy, patchy yard, and owners do not want to manage mowing and irrigation for a property they are not living in.

Commercial jobs follow different rules

Florida's 2025 synthetic turf law, Section 125.572(3), covers single-family residential lots of one acre or less. DEP's guidance says condominiums, duplexes, parks, athletic fields and commercial properties are outside that rule. That means local site plans, stormwater rules and permits can still apply to commercial turf. We check what applies at your property before quoting, and we plan the job around any requirements the city, county or property manager has.

Traffic and product choice

A dog park, a restaurant patio and a decorative office strip wear very differently. For high traffic we look at denser, tougher products and nylon or high-durability polyethylene blades, and we plan seams away from the main walking paths. For pet areas at apartments and rentals, we use a fully permeable backing and odor-control infill, and for decorative areas we focus on color and appearance.

Drainage on commercial sites

Commercial areas often sit next to pavement, parking and buildings, so runoff arrives from more than just rain falling on the turf. We look at where water flows onto the area during a storm, grade the base to move it to existing drains or soakage areas, and avoid installing turf in swales or retention areas that are part of the site's stormwater system.

Rooftops, balconies and hard surfaces

Turf over concrete or a roof deck uses a different build: no stone base, but a drainage mat or pad so water reaches the existing drains. Fixr lists turf on roofs at about $7 to $19 per square foot and on patios and terraces at $9 to $12, reflecting the extra layers and access work.

Scheduling around your business

We schedule commercial work to keep disruption low: early starts, phased work so part of a space stays open, and coordination with property managers for access and staging. Your written quote lists the scope, schedule and price.
