Homeowners and businesses alike are turning to synthetic turf due to its myriad advantages. One of the most compelling reasons is its low maintenance requirement. Say goodbye to mowing, fertilizing, and watering, as synthetic turf stays green and lush all year round without the need for any of these time-consuming tasks. For busy homeowners or those seeking an eco-friendly option, reducing water usage and chemical runoff makes synthetic turf a sustainable choice.
The installation process for synthetic turf might seem daunting, but with Keep It Green Turf’s expertise, it becomes straightforward. The first step in installing synthetic turf is site preparation. This includes removing existing grass or debris and ensuring the soil is compact and level. Proper site preparation is crucial for the longevity and appearance of your synthetic turf.
Next, a weed barrier is put in place. This protects your synthetic lawn from unwanted growth beneath the surface. Our team then installs a layer of base material, often composed of crushed rock, which provides a stable platform for the turf. This layer is compacted meticulously to prevent shifting or sinking and allow for proper drainage.
Laying the synthetic turf is a precision task that requires attention to detail. The turf is rolled out over the base, cut to fit the space, and meticulously seamed together. To ensure a natural look, the grain of the turf should face the same direction. Securing the turf edges properly is another critical step; it prevents curling and maintains the aesthetic appeal of your lawn.
Once the turf is laid, infill material, commonly silica sand or rubber granules, is spread across the surface. This infill acts as a stabilizer, weighing down the turf and supporting the grass fibers to keep them upright. It also offers a cushion underfoot, enhancing comfort.
Finally, a power broom is used to brush the turf, setting the infill and ensuring each blade of grass stands upright. This finishing touch gives your lawn the perfect, manicured appearance that synthetic turf is known for.
Transitioning to synthetic turf also means your lawn will withstand high traffic and severe weather conditions without losing its charm. Whether it’s backyard games, pets romping around, or unexpected downpours, your turf remains beautiful and intact.
In conclusion, upgrading to synthetic turf is a wise investment for those seeking a pristine, worry-free lawn.
