Tempe's Outdoor Living Specialists
Tempe properties often have smaller footprints than East Valley suburbs, which makes smart design even more important. Turfli specializes in maximizing every square foot — combining turf, pavers, shade, and lighting to create outdoor spaces that punch above their size.
Tempe homeowners near Tempe Town Lake, the Papago area, and South Tempe are investing heavily in backyard upgrades. We've completed dozens of Tempe projects and understand what works in this market.
Founded by Curtis Frank and Karl Baum, Turfli handles design, permitting, and construction in-house. No subcontractors, no surprises.
