GTR Turf provides professional artificial turf maintenance for homes, businesses and sports fields across Alberta. Regular care keeps your turf clean, safe and looking its best, and helps it last longer through every season.
Artificial turf is low-maintenance, not no-maintenance. Alberta’s wind, dust, falling leaves, heavy snow and freeze-thaw cycles all take a toll over time. Fibres get matted down, infill shifts, debris builds up and drainage can slow. A little regular care keeps your surface performing the way it did on day one.
Keeps Fibres Standing Tall
Foot traffic, furniture and snow loads flatten turf fibres. Brushing lifts them back up so your turf looks full and natural.
Protects Drainage
Leaves, dirt and organic matter can clog the turf backing over time. Keeping the surface clean helps water drain quickly after rain and spring snowmelt.
Controls Odours and Bacteria
Pet areas and high-use spaces benefit from regular cleaning and deodorizing to keep the turf fresh and hygienic.
Extends Turf Life
Turf that's brushed, topped up with infill and kept free of debris wears more evenly and lasts longer than turf that's left alone.
Keeps Surfaces Safe
Proper infill levels help with cushioning and footing, and secure seams and edges reduce tripping hazards in play and sports areas.
Catches Small Problems Early
A loose seam or a low spot is a simple fix when it's caught early. Left alone, it can turn into a bigger, more costly repair.
From a small backyard dog run to a full sports field, GTR Turf offers maintenance and repair services that keep your artificial turf in top shape year after year.
Keep your front or backyard looking fresh. We remove debris, power-brush the fibres, top up infill where needed and check seams and edges so your lawn stays clean and even.
Pet areas need a little extra attention. We deep-clean and rinse the surface, apply turf-safe enzyme deodorizers and can recommend infill designed to help manage pet odours.
A putting green needs a consistent surface to roll true. We brush and groom the turf, level the infill and check cups and fringe so your green plays smoothly.
First impressions matter for offices, retail properties, restaurants and rooftops. We keep commercial turf clean and tidy, and make sure drainage paths over concrete or decking stay clear.
Play areas see heavy daily use. We clean and sanitize the surface, check infill levels around equipment and make sure seams and edges are secure for safe play.
Sports turf needs regular grooming to perform consistently and safely. We provide field grooming, infill redistribution, deep cleaning and seam and line inspections for baseball, soccer, football and multi-sport fields.
Good maintenance is more than a quick sweep. We look at the whole surface, from the fibres down to the base, so small issues get fixed before they become bigger ones.
We walk the area and check the condition of the fibres, infill levels, seams, edges and drainage. We'll let you know about anything that needs attention before we start.
Leaves, twigs, dirt and other debris are cleared from the surface and edges so nothing is left to break down and clog the turf backing.
We brush against the grain with professional equipment to lift matted fibres and loosen compacted infill, restoring a full, natural look.
Infill is redistributed and topped up where it has thinned out. This helps support the fibres, improves cushioning and keeps the surface even.
The surface is rinsed and, where needed, treated with turf-safe cleaners and enzyme deodorizers, especially in pet and play areas.
We secure any loose seams or edges, then walk you through the results and share simple care tips to keep your turf looking great between visits.
With more than 20 years of synthetic turf experience, GTR Turf knows artificial turf from the base up. Because we install residential, commercial and sports turf, our team understands what causes wear, drainage problems and seam issues, and how to fix them properly.
Our installation experience helps us spot base, drainage and seam issues that a simple cleaning service might miss.
Sports fields demand high standards for safety and performance. We bring that same care to every maintenance visit, big or small.
As the exclusive Canadian distributor of Shaw Sports Turf, we can source matching turf and materials for repairs and replacements.
Our quotes clearly explain the work involved, whether it's a one-time cleanup, a seasonal service or a repair.

Artificial Turf Maintenance
Common questions about how often to maintain turf, pets, winter care and cost. If yours isn’t answered here, give our team a call.
It depends on how much the area is used. Many residential lawns benefit from a professional service at least once a year, usually in spring. Pet areas, playgrounds, commercial spaces and sports fields see heavier use and typically need more frequent maintenance. We’ll recommend a schedule that fits your space.
Remove leaves and debris with a leaf blower or plastic rake, rinse the turf occasionally with a hose, pick up pet waste promptly and brush high-traffic areas against the grain with a stiff, non-metal brush to keep the fibres standing up.
Rinsing pet areas regularly helps a lot. For lingering odours, we deep-clean the turf and apply enzyme-based deodorizers that break down the source of the smell. Pet-specific infill can also help manage odours over the long term.
Yes, but be gentle. Use a plastic shovel or a broom and leave a thin layer of snow on the surface so you don’t scrape the fibres. Avoid metal shovels, salt and chemical de-icers. Most snow can simply be left to melt and drain through the turf.
Many common problems, like loose seams, lifted edges, burns and small damaged areas, can be repaired. If large sections are worn out or the base has failed, replacement may be the better option. We’ll assess your turf and give you an honest recommendation.
The cost depends on the size of the area, the condition of the turf, how much infill is needed and whether any repairs are required. GTR Turf provides a free site assessment and quote based on your specific project.
