[Request a free estimate](https://www.timelessgrass.com/estimate/) [Call 720-630-0108](tel:7206300108) - ### Your outdoor space A smaller yard may only need a defined pet area or a compact green; a larger lot can compare a lawn with a separate green. Point out gates or shared paths at the free visit. See the rule on your outdoor space Start at the patio and work outward. For a smaller yard, a defined pet area or a compact putting green may be enough. Leave walking room between the house, seating and planting beds. On a larger lot, compare a lawn area with a separate practice green rather than treating every square foot the same. The free visit is a chance to discuss those options and see what installation involves. Point out gates, shared paths and restrictions on where materials can be delivered or stored. - ### Community properties A nearby development's turf policy may not apply to you, so request documents by your exact community and address. On Thomasboro Road, that's Calabash Lakes or The Village at Calabash. See the rule on community properties Use the requirements for your own community. Carolina Shores includes several communities, and Carolina Shores Subdivision is only one of them. Use the exact community and property address when requesting documents; a nearby development’s turf policy may not apply. Confirm ownership of the work area and any association requirements. Ask Town Planning & Zoning about the complete proposal, including grading or drainage changes. Bring the responses to the estimate so the scope can reflect the conditions that apply. Thomasboro Road itself runs through two of the Town's eight communities, Calabash Lakes and The Village at Calabash. If your address is on Thomasboro Road, use whichever of those two community names matches your property when requesting documents. If your Thomasboro address may sit outside town limits, confirm with the Town whether Carolina Shores or Brunswick County covers your parcel before the layout is final. - ### Which community? The Town lists eight communities, but its directory sets no shared turf policy. A neighbor's approval doesn't cover your project, so ask your own HOA for its current documents. See the rule on which community? Carolina Shores is a town; Carolina Shores Subdivision is one community. The [Town’s community directory](https://www.carolinashoresnc.com/communities) identifies eight communities: Carolina Shores Subdivision, The Farm at Brunswick, Calabash Lakes, Beacon Townes, The Village at Calabash, Lighthouse Cove, Eagle Run and River Rock at Shingletree. Start with the correct community name when looking for governing documents or contacting a manager. That directory establishes community identity. It does not establish a uniform artificial-turf policy, or prove that the same review process applies everywhere. Ask for the current documents covering your particular property and proposed change. A neighbor’s experience can suggest a useful question, but does not establish permission for your own project. Five more of the eight communities — Beacon Townes, Eagle Run, Lighthouse Cove, River Rock at Shingletree and The Farm at Brunswick — are also subdivisions inside the Town. Beacon Townes, Eagle Run, Lighthouse Cove and The Farm at Brunswick each list the same town services on their Town pages: building inspections, planning and zoning, roadway maintenance and solid-waste collection, with Brunswick County supplying water, sewer and law enforcement. River Rock at Shingletree's Town page lists building inspections, planning and zoning, street lighting, a solid-waste convenience site and animal control instead. If your community has its own homeowners association, ask it directly for the current governing documents and any turf-specific guidance before finalizing a layout. - ### Which space? With detached homes, patio homes, villas and townhomes here, check your survey and deed: the area may be yours, shared or under an easement. If it's common area, involve your association before pricing. See the rule on which space? A lawn beside a home may have more than one decision-maker. The Town describes [Carolina Shores Subdivision](https://www.carolinashoresnc.com/carolinashoressubdivision) as including detached houses, patio homes and villas, with larger lots in The Acreage. Its [Calabash Lakes page](https://www.carolinashoresnc.com/calabashlakes) describes detached homes, paired ranches and townhomes. These different property types make ownership and maintenance responsibility useful early questions. Check the survey, deed and applicable community documents for the exact area you want to replace. Establish whether it belongs to the homeowner, is shared, or carries an easement; a maintenance arrangement alone may not answer that. If the proposal includes a common area, involve the authorized association representative before seeking a construction scope. - ### Two reviews An HOA answer doesn’t replace the Town’s review. Give Planning & Zoning the address and a description of the turf, grading and drainage, and ask about the turf itself, not just the fence rule. See the rule on two reviews Association guidance does not replace the Town’s review. [Carolina Shores Planning & Zoning](https://www.carolinashoresnc.com/planningzoning) handles zoning, subdivision and floodplain matters within the Town and its extra-territorial jurisdiction. Give staff the address and a description of the proposed turf, grading, drainage and any related construction so they can identify applicable requirements. For fences, the [Town’s FAQ](https://www.carolinashoresnc.com/faq) specifically tells residents to check with their HOA or POA first, then contact the Town about whether and where a permit is needed. That is relevant when a pet-turf proposal includes a new fence. It is not a published turf approval rule; ask about the turf work itself rather than extending the fence answer to every landscaping change.

Identify the correct community and confirm who controls the proposed area. Obtain current association guidance where it applies, and ask Carolina Shores Planning & Zoning about the specific work. An association response does not resolve Town requirements. We offer lawn, pet-turf and putting-green installation estimates in Carolina Shores. ### Does Carolina Shores have one artificial-turf rule for all eight communities? The Town’s directory does not provide a shared turf policy. Obtain the current requirements for the specific property and ask the Town about the proposed work separately. ### Is Carolina Shores Subdivision the same as the Town of Carolina Shores? No. Carolina Shores Subdivision is one of the communities the Town lists. Use the specific community name when requesting property or association documents. ### If my association agrees, can installation begin? First establish that you have authority over the area and resolve any applicable Town requirements for the complete scope. Association agreement does not by itself answer zoning, drainage or related construction questions. ### Can a townhome owner replace the grass outside the home? The answer depends on the property documents and who controls that area. Confirm ownership, easements and maintenance responsibilities with the appropriate representative before treating it as a private-yard project. ### Is Thomasboro Road part of Carolina Shores? Thomasboro Road runs through two of the Town's eight communities: Calabash Lakes and The Village at Calabash. Use whichever of those two names matches your address when requesting documents.
