Side yards often get overlooked—narrow, shady, or awkward to mow, they usually turn into dead zones or storage corners. But with the right design approach, these areas can become valuable, usable parts of your landscape.

At Kingswood Turf, we help homeowners unlock the full potential of their yards—including side yards—with premium artificial turf installation. Here’s how you can turn that underused space into something practical, clean, and attractive.

1. No Grass? No Problem. Turf Thrives Where Sod Fails

Natural grass struggles in side yards due to:

• Limited sunlight
• Heavy foot traffic
• Poor drainage
• Inconsistent care

Artificial turf solves all of these issues with:

• UV protection and fade resistance
• Custom drainage systems for runoff
• A low-profile, walkable surface
• A year-round green look—even in tight spots

2. Turn It Into a Clean Walking Path

A side yard doesn’t have to be a dead-end. Add turf between stepping stones or border it with gravel or lighting to create a functional path to the backyard.

Benefits include:

• No mud or puddles during rain
• Less yard mess tracked indoors
• Easy maintenance with a sleek design

Perfect for homes with outdoor trash bins, storage sheds, or side gates.

3. Create a Cozy Pet Relief Area

If your dog needs a designated potty spot, the side yard is the ideal zone. Kingswood Turf installs pet-friendly artificial turf systems that:

• Resist digging
• Neutralize odors
• Drain quickly
• Rinse clean with minimal effort

It’s the perfect way to separate pet use from the main yard and reduce mess.

4. Build a Mini Outdoor Lounge or Zen Corner

Got a few extra feet of space? Turn your side yard into:

• A reading nook with turf and a bench
• A small meditation area with plants and lights
• A yoga or stretching pad with soft turf underfoot

Artificial turf creates a clean, calming base that’s easy to maintain and always looks inviting.

5. Keep It Simple, Modern, and Mud-Free

Even if all you want is a clean, low-effort space, artificial turf delivers. Instead of weeds, mud, and bugs, you’ll have:

• A tidy appearance from front to back
• Reduced yard maintenance
• Extra usable space for any future ideas
