What artificial turf costs in 2026
The number you came for — and the math behind it.
Artificial turf costs about $7–$20 per square foot installed in 2026 — roughly $6,000–$9,500 for a 500-square-foot lawn at standard grade. Materials run $2–$8 per square foot, professional labor $3.45–$12, and the per-square-foot price drops on larger jobs. This calculator takes the installed range for your turf grade, adjusts for job size, applies your state’s labor rates, and shows a low-to-high total plus a do-it-yourself comparison. Every figure comes from published 2026 installer pricing, and every result is a planning estimate — confirm with local quotes.
