Pompano Beach, FL – Durafield Synthetic Lawns of Florida, doing business as Synthetic Lawns of Florida, is proud to announce its support and excitement for the passage of Florida House Bill 683 - a new state law that empowers homeowners to install synthetic turf on residential properties under one acre, without being subject to local government bans. The legislation, signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis last month, takes effect in July and is expected to significantly increase demand for artificial turf statewide.

"This new law is a game-changer for our customers,” said Orlando Buitrago, CEO of Durafield Synthetic Lawns of Florida. “Now we don’t have to fight with the cities, and my clients won’t have to worry about being fined. It’s their yard, so they should be able to do whatever they want.”

The legislation shifts regulatory authority from local municipalities to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, which will now create statewide standards for synthetic turf installation. These standards will address key considerations like material safety, water permeability, and stormwater drainage - areas where Durafield Synthetic Lawns of Florida already leads with innovation and compliance.

“There are a lot of misconceptions out there, but synthetic turf filters water just like natural grass and doesn’t pose environmental concerns,” Buitrago added. “You’re not harming the Earth—you’re helping it.” For homeowners looking to maintain their new lawn the right way, Durafield Synthetic Lawns of Florida also provides tips on how to clean artificial grass to keep it looking fresh year-round.
