Artificial turf in St. George, UT

St. George (Washington County) has about 104,578 residents. Here is what the local climate means for a turf lawn, which of our nine lines we would pick, and who can install it.

The climate in St. George, in numbers

Summer afternoons in St. George average 99 F, so a lawn here spends months under strong sun. Real grass needs a lot of water to survive that; turf needs none.

With about 9 inches of rain a year, this is dry country. Watering is the largest cost of a natural lawn here, and often the first thing a utility restricts.

USDA hardiness zone 8b.

Turf lines that fit St. George

All nine lines ship here at the same price as anywhere else, $2.60 to $3.50 per square foot. These are the ones we would start with for this climate.

The $10 comes off a later turf order. Turf is cut to your length and cannot be returned, so a sample is the safe first step.

Water rules and rebates that apply in St. George

  • Utah Water Savers Landscape Incentive Program rebate

    The Utah Division of Water Resources and participating water providers pay up to $3 per square foot of living lawn replaced with waterwise landscaping (at least 50 percent perennial plant cover and drip irrigation) in communities that adopted the state's water efficiency standards.

    Artificial turf: Covers live plants only, not artificial turf: the program does not incentivize artificial turf or any type of lawn, and rock alone without plants does not qualify.

  • Washington County Water Conservancy District water efficient landscape rebate rebate

    The district pays $3 per square foot of grass replaced with trees, shrubs and other perennial plants on drip irrigation with mulch; impermeable surfaces such as concrete earn nothing.

    Artificial turf: Permeable artificial turf is accepted in lieu of mulch; the page states artificial turf is accepted if it is permeable to air and water.
