Playground Turf by Marsh & Mane in Charleston, SC

No. 07 · Charleston, SC

Playground & play-yard turf for families.

“Soft landings. Zero mud.”

The craft

Play yards with padded fall zones under playsets and swings.

Kids need a surface that is soft, clean and ready after a rainstorm. We build play yards with a shock pad under playsets and swings — matched to your equipment’s fall height — a softer pile, low-dust cooling infill and secure edges, so the whole yard is usable year-round.

Good questions.

  • Yes. Quality turf is non-toxic and soft, and we can add a shock pad under play areas and playsets. We recommend lighter, cooling infills rather than dark crumb rubber for residential play yards.

  • Yes. We remove existing sod and soil to the right depth, then build and compact a crushed-stone base before installing turf. Skipping removal is the most common cause of lumpy, poorly draining turf.

  • Yes. We install turf over concrete, pavers and rooftops with drainage mats or pads designed for hard surfaces, which is common for commercial courtyards and rooftop terraces.

  • Our base is built drain-first: compacted crushed stone graded to move water away from the house, under turf with a perforated or full-flow backing. Most installs drain faster than the natural grass they replace.

  • Any surface warms in direct July sun. We reduce it with lighter, heat-reflective fiber blends and cooling infills, and we design shade and planting around the way you actually use the yard. A quick rinse cools it down fast.

  • Most residential yards take two to five days once materials are on site. Larger landscape and outdoor living projects are scheduled in phases — we will walk you through the full timeline at the consultation.
