If you’d like a beautiful garden without the maintenance that comes with it, artificial grass is a great option. With a real-grass look but offering greater wear and weather resistance, it's an excellent grass alternative for low maintenance gardeners. Ideal for urban and small gardens, there's no need to water it in dry weather and the artificial turf is porous so won't have puddles in the rain.
The following details tell you how to install landscape grass properly?
Step 1. Clear the area
Start by removing the existing turf from your garden. For small areas you can do this with a spade, but if you have a large area to clear hiring a turf cutter can make this job a lot easier and faster. Ideally remove a depth of about 40mm.
Step 2. Prepare the base layer
Spread out a layer of sharp builder’s sand to a depth of 35mm as a base to the artificial turf.
Step 3. Level it out
Level and compact the sand evenly across the area to ensure a firm base below the grass.
Step 4. Keep the weeds out
Roll out a weed membrane over the top of the sand and make sure it overlaps joints by 300mm.
Step 5. Time to roll out your new lawn
Roll out the artificial grass to cover the area, but make sure the ends of the grass rolls are staggered so they don't end in a line
Step 6. Keep it neat & tidy
Use a craft knife to trim the edges of the artificial grass rolls.
Step 7. Bring it all together
Once you’ve rolled out all of the artificial grass, you need to fix the different rolls together. Use jointing tape - rough side up
Step 8. Hide the joins
Once two rolls are joined, ruffle up the grass fibres at the joints to disguise the seal.
Step 9. Secure those edges
Use ground pins to fix down the edges of the artificial grass rolls every 20cm, again ruffling the grass over the pin heads to disguise them.
Step 10. The finishing touch
Brushing the grass pile with a stiff brush after you're finished makes it look fuller and more natural.
