The turf is good, but the process is kind of confusing at first. I didn't really know where to start since there was no buy buttons on any of the products. It took me a few days to figure out that I needed to send in a quote to get the turf I needed. A bit of a confusing process but I got my turf in the end, and it looks pretty good.
Absolutely. Artificial grass will be a much better option for playgrounds. Playgrounds get used a lot and I will suggest you to discuss with us when selecting your product, my recommendation is always to go with artificial grass that is lower pile and more durable. More importantly, artificial grass surface needs to have meet certain fall ratings or in the industry's term: GMax. In order to achieve to certain fall ratings, you need to install padding underneath the grass: The pads come in different thicknesses, each thickness offers its own fall rating capacities. For an example, if you want to have a fall rating of 5' which means falling onto the surface from 5' won't get people hurt, the thickness of the pads needs to be 1-1/4", the higher the fall, the thicker of the pads needed.

It would be a great idea to have artificial grass at cemeteries. We have our turf at a cemetery in the San Francisco Bay Area and it looks awesome. It cuts the maintenance by a great deal, and not to mention on water savings. The cemetery has bought extra several rolls of turf in the same dye lot, they store them, with the new buries, they provide an option for the family to choose with extra cost. Being the same dye lot, the grass matching up with each other, so the entire area looks very consistent.

To achieve the best drainage capacity for artificial grass, both the turf and base are equally important: all our turf products have the drainage capacity at an average of 50-60 inches per hour which can handle the most downpour you can imagine, in order to achieve its best level, the base will need to be able to handle the similar amount of water. We recommend to have the base built as thick as 4” with 2-1/2” of drain rock with 1-1/2” of top layer, this is especially important for rainy areas. Some of the less rainy areas, people might do thinner base. The golden rule for artificial grass drainage is that the turf will drain just as well as the base.
