How to Prepare a Surface Before Installing Artificial Grass

How to Prepare a Surface Before Installing Artificial Grass

The result of an artificial grass installation depends on more than the material itself. Base condition, drainage and edge finishing all affect appearance and day-to-day use.

Inspect the surface

Remove depressions, sharp projections and unstable areas before installation. Preparation methods can differ for concrete, terraces and ground-based applications.

Plan drainage

Outdoor installations should prevent water from collecting on the surface. Existing drainage direction and the base layer should be evaluated before work begins.

Measure and plan cuts

Planning material direction, joint lines and edge finishing in advance helps create a cleaner result. Pile height and density should also match the intended use of the area.
