We don't lay turf. We price it.

The problem we fix

Search "artificial turf cost" and every result comes from someone who wants to install your lawn or sell you the roll. Their answer always ends the same way: "get a free quote." That's not a price. It's a lead form. You're left guessing whether $9 a square foot is a steal or a rip-off, with no neutral number to check the bid against.

We're the neutral number. We take no turf orders and book no installs, so we've got no reason to quote you high or low. When we say a normal backyard runs $12 to $15 per square foot installed, that figure comes from published cost data, not from a job we're trying to win.

How we price things

Every price on this site is traced to a published source, dated in the copy, and re-checked every quarter, because turf and labor prices move. Each cost page lists its sources at the bottom with the date we checked them. Where sources disagree, we give the range and say so rather than pick a number that looks tidy. If a figure can't be verified, we say "confirm with a local supplier" instead of inventing one.

Our estimates are planning numbers, not quotes. Turf pricing depends on your region, yard, and season, so we always point you to a local installer for the firm figure. We just make sure you walk in knowing roughly what it should be.

How MowFree makes money

Some of our pages link to turf materials on Amazon, and we earn a small commission when a reader buys through those links, at no extra cost to them. That's it. Those links never change what we recommend or the prices we publish, and they're marked. The full breakdown is on ourdisclosure page.

Who writes this

MowFree is published by The MowFree Team. We're a small independent team that got tired of not being able to price a turf project without handing over an email address. The credibility here comes from the sources we cite and the dates on them, not from a byline. If we get a number wrong, tell us and we'll fix it.
