How To Install Artificial Turf Florida

By Rebecca Taylor


Having a lush green lawn that has been perfectly manicured is always great especially when you have a large outdoor space. However, it takes a lot of work to maintain a great lawn. To avoid all the work and costs, property owners may want to consider installing artificial turf Florida. Synthetic lawns do not require any sort of maintenance, so they are great to have around.

Grass is a living organism that needs a lot of things to grow. For one, it needs water. Secondly, it needs sunlight to make food. Thirdly, grass needs nutrients to thrive. This means that you must add fertilizer to the lawn, water it on a regular basis and ensure it gets sufficient sunlight several hours a day. This is a lot of work and it is not always possible.

It is important to note that artificial grass looks and feels exactly like natural grass. However, it lasts much longer and requires less work. In fact, it requires no maintenance. The only thing you need to do is blow leaves and pick twigs on a regular basis. You will not need any fertilizers, water or sunlight for it to look great.

Weeds are usually a big problem in a natural lawn. However, you will not need to worry about plants growing on the synthetic lawn. This means that you will use zero chemical herbicides, thereby helping to protect the environment. Furthermore, the fibers will not grow, so you will not need regular mowing of the lawn. This will save you a lot of money.

The standard width for synthetic lawns is 15 feet, but the lengths differ. Usually, several pieces of the material will have to be sewn together to ensure the entire garden or yard is completely covered in the material. It is important to note that turf installation is a job for professionals.

When choosing the synthetic grass product, you must specify the length of the fibers. You do not want to have the wrong material installed in your garden. Fiber lengths usually range from two inches to four inches in length. When looking for a synthetic lawn for a single hole golf course in your home, you should choose the shortest fiber length.

Installation of the material starts with removal of grass and sod, as well as any other obstruction, from the surface. The ground is then leveled and compacted before the base is established. Next, crushed rocks are laid over the surface and compacted. The surface is then smoothed to create a stable base. Next, the material is laid over the base and stainless steel pins used to secure it to the base.

The cost of installation will differ from one installer to the next, so it is always a great idea to obtain quotes from a number of firms and compare them. Licensed installers with a lot of industry experience and the lowest quotes should always be given strong consideration. This is because they are able to offer greater value for money. The reputation of a firm should also be considered.
