This Escondido backyard had a long history of gopher activity that had been quietly destroying lawns from underneath — a recurring frustration the homeowner needed solved permanently as part of a full turf installation overhaul. The goal was a lush, durable lawn surface that would look great, stay maintenance-free, and hold up against the subsurface pressure that had plagued the yard for years.

We installed a full gopher wire barrier beneath the entire turf area before laying the surface, providing a heavy-duty underground shield that blocks gopher tunneling and protects the turf base from below without affecting drainage or surface performance. Premium artificial turf was then installed over the full backyard footprint, shaped with long sweeping curved edges that follow the natural contour of the yard and meet cleanly against the existing concrete patio behind the home. A concrete mow curb was installed along the full curved perimeter boundary, creating a clean, defined edge that separates the turf from the surrounding soil and keeps the installation locked in place long-term.

The finished backyard is a durable, gopher-proof turf installation that looks as good as it performs — a lush, sweeping lawn with clean perimeter edging built to stay intact in Escondido's active gopher territory for years to come.

We recently completed a backyard renovation with United turf & pavers, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. From the initial estimate through the final walkthrough, everything was handled with professionalism and great attention to detail. Chris, the project manager, was knowledgeable, communicative, and made sure the project stayed on track. Diego, the foreman, and his crew did an incredible job with the installation ,the craftsmanship and care they put into their work really shows. Our backyard looks absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality landscaping work!

I had to upgrade my rental property and United Turf & Pavers came highly recommended and now I see why. The quality of work, communication and pricing speaks for itself. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my backyard and Alex and Chris were a pleasure to work with.

These guys were amazing!!! We called for a quote and Chris came out right away. We weren’t too sure what we wanted to do. He took his time with us, reviewing all options, helping us decide what to do on our driveway. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and had competitive pricing! They held to their schedule and got the job done in a timely manner! Working with foreman Vicente was easy! The team knew what they were doing and got it done! We wanted to make one small change when they were almost done and they supported it 100%, even tho it was extra work!! We LOVE the finished product!! Would absolutely recommend them!

I highly recommend United Turf & Pavers! From the moment I inquired about getting a quote they were so responsive and helpful with turning my ideas into something real. They had such good insight and advice as well for things I was concerned or had any questions about. Alex, the owner, is hands on, communicative, and he’s created a wonderful team who delivers, shows up on time, and gets the job done. Not to mention they’re affordable too for the quality they bring to designing a space. Thank you so much guys!!!!

The customer service from United Turf and Pavers is phenomenal. Chris and his team were transparent, trustworthy, and efficient on the job. Any questions or concerns I had were handled with quality assurance and clear communication. The work they did for my property in El Cajon, San Diego was unmatched- there is nobody else I’d recommend for these jobs.

Professionals theoughout the whole project. Meet with Alex for an estimate, was on time, courteous explained process step by step. Workers showed up everyday on time and completed project within a few days. Job site was left clean and organized. Pricing was fair and honest. Before and after pictures added.

I had an amazing experience with United Turf & Pavers. From start to finish, Alex, the project manager, was professional, communicative, and made sure everything was crystal clear every step of the way. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the pricing was fair and competitive. I truly couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. When I’m ready to move forward with my front yard, I’ll definitely be going with them again , their professionalism, quality, and value speak for themselves.

I am extremely happy that I chose this company to install my pet approved turf. We’re starting up a Home board and Care business and this was a lot of money to put forth before knowing if we would be successful. Alex has been amazing!!! His communication and his attention to detail and the fact that he showed up on site the first day Showed me that he really cares about his customers and the service he provides to them. His team was very respectful and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I have already referred them to my neighbors!
