Kenner yards take a beating: long hot summers, storms that dump inches of rain in an afternoon, and clay that stays soft for days afterward. CMC's Services installs synthetic grass across Kenner that stays green through all of it and never needs a mower.
215+ 5-Star Google Reviews · Licensed & insuredArtificial turf holds up well in Kenner when the base is built for local conditions. Kenner sits between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain on low, flat ground with heavy clay soil, so water is the main enemy of any lawn surface. CMC's Services strips the old grass, grades the yard so runoff moves toward the street, and compacts a high-permeability base before laying turf with drainage holes in the backing. Heavy storms then pass through instead of pooling. We use UV-stabilized, commercial-grade synthetic grass that resists fading in full sun, and lead-free, non-toxic products for families with kids and pets. Where there is no soil at all, such as an old concrete patio or a flat rooftop, we level the surface and secure the turf with adhesives made for hard surfaces. Care is simple: rinse it and brush it now and then. Quotes are free and written after an on-site visit.
We put turf on lawns, playgrounds, pet zones, rooftops and commercial properties, and on old patios and concrete where grass will never grow. Every job starts with a free on-site visit and a written quote from our own crew.
The reasons we hear in Kenner are practical ones.
Kenner lawns go brown in August, then patchy after a wet winter. Synthetic grass keeps the same color through every season. UV-stabilized fibers resist fading in the strong sun, so the yard looks as good in late summer as it did the day it went in.
Turf removes the weekend chores that come with a Kenner lawn: mowing every week in summer, edging along the driveway, and reseeding the bare spots that never fill in. Your yard work drops to a rinse and a quick brush in the high-traffic areas.
Grass in full sun needs steady watering during dry spells, even in a rainy climate. Turf needs none apart from an occasional rinse. That takes the sprinkler off your water bill and ends the summer routine of dragging hoses around the yard.
We install lead-free, non-toxic turf that drains fast after storms. Kids can get back outside the same afternoon, and the dog stops dragging mud through the house. Pet zones get a backing and infill chosen for easy rinsing, and play areas can get a cushioning pad underneath.
We are a Jefferson Parish contractor based a short drive away in Metairie.
We design the base around Kenner's clay and flat lots, grading and compacting so the turf stays level and drains year after year instead of dipping where the ground settles.
Our team has handled everything from small patio borders to large commercial grounds. That range shows in how we handle edges, transitions to hardscape and drainage on bigger sites, like apartment grounds near the airport.
We install durable, UV-stabilized turf meant for real use and match the product to the job, whether that is a front lawn, a dog run or a rooftop sitting area.
You deal with our crew from the first consultation to the final walkthrough. We do not leave until you have looked over the finished turf and are happy with it.
Four stages, from the first visit to the final brush-in.
We visit the property, measure, check where water stands after a storm and talk through how the space gets used. If you want turf on concrete or a rooftop, we look at the surface condition and slope as well.
We draw up a layout, choose a turf type and plan the drainage for your site. You get a written quote that lists prep, base, turf and infill, so you can compare it line by line with anyone else's.
The crew removes the existing grass, grades the ground, spreads and compacts the base, then lays and seams the turf and secures the edges. On hard surfaces we level first and use adhesive suited to concrete.
We brush in the infill, clean up and walk the finished yard with you. You get simple care instructions, mostly rinsing and brushing, before we pack up and leave. We also show you where any sprinkler lines were capped under the turf.
Where we install turf around Kenner.
Front and back lawns replaced with natural-looking synthetic grass. This is the job most Kenner homeowners call about, especially for yards with shade trees or low spots where real grass will not hold. We pick blade color and pile height to suit the house and how the yard is used.
Old slabs, cracked patios and pool surrounds can be covered with turf after leveling. We secure it with adhesive made for hard surfaces and make sure water still runs off, so the turf does not stay soggy.
Flat rooftops and balconies on homes and businesses can carry turf for a green sitting area. We secure it without covering the roof drains, so rainwater still leaves the surface the way it was designed to.
Dog runs, play areas and playgrounds get soft, lead-free turf with fast drainage. These areas see the heaviest use, so we take extra care with seams and edges where kids and dogs wear the surface most.
Office frontages, retail strips along Williams Blvd and apartment courtyards. Commercial turf cuts out irrigation and mowing contracts and keeps the property looking kept through the hottest months. We can schedule commercial work to keep entrances open during business hours.

Kenner covers a lot of ground, from Rivertown near the river to the subdivisions north of I-10 toward the Lake Pontchartrain lakefront. The soil is mostly heavy clay throughout, and many lots are flat with little natural fall, so rainwater has nowhere obvious to go. Grading is the first thing we look at on every Kenner turf job. Even a small, steady fall toward the street makes the difference between a lawn that dries in an hour and one that holds water until the next morning.
Near the airport and along Williams Blvd we get more commercial requests: frontage strips, islands inside parking lots and courtyards at apartment complexes. These sites usually need turf because the irrigation is broken or the grass gets walked over all day. A compacted base handles that foot traffic and the occasional car tire. We also edge commercial turf with a firm border so it does not creep or curl along curbs.
Many Kenner homes have an old concrete patio out back that the owners are tired of looking at. Turf over concrete is a fast way to soften it without demolition. If you are planning a larger yard project, our crew also does hardscaping in Kenner, so turf and new pavers can be designed and built together. Turf joints between new pavers are a popular finish on Kenner patios.

“CMC Services just completed an amazing project covering our entire front of our house including new concrete driveways. The project involved demolition of all existing cement and grass with a new design for two separate driveways instead of the former circular driveway plus the addition of turf and decorative cement squares across the entire front and two new gardens with new pavers. From the moment we received their estimate last fall to the beginning of the project in February, our project manager, Matt was exceptional to work with and maintained communication with us throughout the entire project…”
“Had an issue with a city ordinance that should not exist and CMC made it right by fixing it free of charge! The rest of their work is very clean and exactly how they said it would be! Drainage work was much better and cleaner than expected. Their crew cleans up after themselves and leave no messes behind!”
“We worked with CMC services to install landscaping and lighting at our new Catholic Center. They did an excellent job and worked within our budget. Madeline came up with a beautiful design, and the work was done quickly and efficiently. They were a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them!”

“Great service! Garden always looks great.”
Price depends mostly on area size and how much site prep the yard needs. Removing thick sod, regrading, adding drainage or leveling an old slab all affect the total, as does the turf product you choose. We measure on site and give a written, no-obligation quote, so you see the full price before any work is scheduled.
Yes, when the base is built right. We use a high-permeability base and turf with drainage holes in the backing, and we grade the yard so water keeps moving instead of pooling. If the lot sits lower than its neighbors or the street, we may recommend added drainage along with the turf.
Yes. We level the hard surface, then secure the turf with adhesives and methods made for concrete. The slab needs some slope so water runs off rather than sitting under the turf. This works well for old patios, pool surrounds and porches where tearing out the concrete is not worth the cost.
Very little. Rinse it with a hose to clear dust and pollen, and brush high-traffic areas so the fibers stand back up. Leaves and twigs come off with a leaf blower or a stiff rake. Pet areas do better with more frequent rinsing in summer. There is no mowing, fertilizing or watering.
We use lead-free, non-toxic turf that is soft underfoot and drains fast. It gives kids a clean place to play without mud, and pet owners can hose it down to keep it fresh. For pet zones we choose a backing and infill made for regular rinsing in Kenner's heat.
