Why is it that artificial turf is so great. We love our artificial turf and would recommend it to anyone. Artificial turf saves water, has no maintenance 20- 25 years. found Global Syn Turf from a neighbor of ours that recommended them to us. They had the turf installed and recommended we do the same. The artificial turf looks so nice and we would do it again if we had the opportunity. We want to thank Global Syn Turf and their wonderful installers here in Houston.
