What affects artificial turf installation cost?
Cost is influenced by square footage, turf selection, demolition, grading, drainage, base preparation, access, curves, seams, edges, infill, and any added landscape or hardscape work.

The turf material is one part of a complete installation. A straightforward, accessible rectangle generally requires less labor and cutting than a complex yard with slopes, roots, multiple islands, stair access, drainage changes, or intricate borders.
The most useful proposals separate material, site preparation, drainage, edges, and any optional upgrades. That helps homeowners understand exactly what they are comparing and avoids the false impression that every low square-foot price includes the same construction quality.
