How to Lay Artificial Grass

Once you make sure you have all of the necessary tools, the installation process is quite simple.

1. Create a turf bed

The first step is amended to “Create a turf bed”.

When creating a turf bed for a permanent base, the surface needs to be completely waterproof and resistant to rotting, splitting, swelling, or chipping. Saying you have a reliable surface, the first step will involve attaching a plastic blender board on the area where artificial turf will be installed. Depending on the size of the area and its exposure to moisture, a customized draining system will have to be installed- while the plastic board will provide some protection, it is not a sustainable surface for the highly porous material of artificial grass.

2. Protect turf from weeds

The second step involves lining the base of your lawn area with a weed-resistant membrane. Those unsightly cracks in sidewalks are proof enough that nature is persistent and resilient- without some sort of weed repellent, weeds will try to seep through the turf, causing disfigurement and organic growth underneath the surface. The membrane is also sold in sheets and can be cut to fit specific spaces and shapes precisely.

3. Apply a filling agent

The next step is filling in the space designated for your artificial lawn with crushed stone, sand, or a mixture of both. Stones are an excellent draining agent and sand provides stability and firmness- as well as a natural, micro-draining system.

There are different choices for infill material and this is an area you’ll have to do some research on given the concern for overheating and rubber crumb infill, especially if you’re installing turf for athletic purposes.

4. Create an even surface

After you’ve filled your foundation cavity, use a plank of wood with an even edge or a flatboard with a level to create a smooth surface. Make sure there aren’t any concave spots and that the surface is even throughout the installation.

5. Add some shock protection

This step is optional, but crucial to a lawn that feels like the real thing. If you plan to be walking across your artificial grass or expect your children to play on it, then adding a shock absorbent membrane right before placing the turf layer is recommended. This will simply consist of placing a sheet of shock-absorbing material cut out to the dimensions of your lawn area right above your even surface.

6. Place and align your turf

Finally, place and align your turf by cutting it to fit your space and securing its edges by nailing them down. If you are applying more than one sheet, you may need to use adhesive to ensure that the spread is a single, consistent layer.

7. Add a final touch of stability

The final step is optional, but recommended. This involves using a seed spreader to distribute silica sand throughout your lawn bed. The sand grounds the turf, adding stability and durability while simultaneously providing an efficient draining medium.

Once you spread the sand evenly throughout the grass, use a broom with a coarse brush to push the sand into the turf and remove the excess.
