When it comes to <\/span>artificial turf installation<\/span><\/a>, turf installers have a lot of options. From the quality of the turf itself to the variety of installation techniques and available products, there are plenty of choices for professionals in the industry. However, one option that is becoming increasingly popular is purchasing <\/span>artificial turf<\/span><\/a> from big-box stores. While this may seem like a convenient and cost-effective solution, there are several reasons why turf installers should avoid using wholesale artificial turf from big-box stores.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Fewer Choices<\/b><\/h2>\n

Big-box stores typically only offer a limited selection of artificial turf products, meaning turf installers don’t have the same range of choices they would have if they purchased from a specialist supplier. This could mean that your clients don’t get the best product for their needs, and you don’t have the opportunity to offer the best solution.<\/span><\/p>\n

At SGW Austin, we offer more than two dozen unique styles of artificial grass, each in a range of pile heights, face weights, and blade tones that ensure each property owner can find the perfect match for their aesthetic and functional needs. We even offer specialty turf wholesale, such as pet turf, putting green turf, IPEMA-certified playground solutions and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Limited Information<\/b><\/h2>\n

Synthetic grass is a highly specialized field with dozens of specs for each product, so access to complete product information is crucial for pairing your client with their ideal turf product. When you buy wholesale artificial turf from a big-box store, you are limited to the information that the store provides. This could mean you don’t get the full specifications of the product or enough information to make an informed decision.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you don’t have full details on the product, you could risk buying turf that isn’t suitable for your client’s needs. If you want to guarantee customer satisfaction and have the tools to provide the highest installation quality possible, you\u2019ll need to consult a qualified artificial grass specialist such as SGW Austin. Our team can walk you through the specs of each of our products and help you find the wholesale turf that will best suit your upcoming project.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Lower Quality<\/b><\/h2>\n

Big-box stores are in the business of making money, and they often do so by offering lower-quality products at lower prices. This often means that the artificial turf they offer is of inferior quality and doesn’t provide the longevity or performance that turf installers and their customers expect.<\/span><\/p>\n

Synthetic grass is a significant investment, and it should withstand up to a decade of daily use without developing significant problems. High-quality turf from SGW Austin and other industry-leading synthetic grass manufacturers is engineered to endure daily foot traffic without notable wear and tear, while the wholesale turf from big-box stores is simply made to last past the return window.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want a synthetic turf yard that\u2019s built to last \u2014 and will guarantee you a return on investment \u2014 trust the industry leaders at Synthetic Grass Warehouse. <\/span>SGW Austin has been an industry leader for more than 20 years, helping distributors, installers and homeowners alike with all of their artificial grass installation needs. <\/span>We have one of the biggest inventory selections in the industry, <\/span>so we can help you find the perfect artificial turf products for your home or business. <\/span>Plus, all SGW artificial turf products are backed by a <\/span>10-year manufacturer warranty<\/span><\/a>, so you can rest assured that your synthetic grass will last you for years to come.
