ASTM-certified artificial turf playground installation in Connecticut

Playground Turf Installation for Schools, Daycares & Homes

ASTM-certified artificial grass playground surfaces with professional-grade impact absorption. Safer than rubber mulch, cleaner than wood chips, and maintenance-free for 15+ years.

Why Schools and Families Choose Artificial Turf Playgrounds

Traditional playground surfaces — wood chips, rubber mulch, and pea gravel — require constant replenishment, harbor insects and allergens, and create accessibility barriers for children with mobility challenges. Artificial turf playground surfaces solve every one of these problems while providing a safer, cleaner, and more attractive play environment.

Our playground turf installations meet ASTM F1292 fall attenuation standards, meaning the surface absorbs impact energy to reduce injury risk from falls. Combined with professional-grade shock padding underneath, our playground turf provides superior protection compared to any loose-fill surface material. Schools, daycares, churches, and homeowners across Connecticut, NYC, and New Jersey trust Pags The Turf Guy for playground turf that keeps children safe while eliminating ongoing maintenance costs.

Every playground installation includes a free site assessment, custom design consultation, and written safety compliance documentation. We handle permitting requirements for commercial playground installations and provide ASTM test certificates for school and daycare facilities.
