Great video, I'll be attempting all this myself v soon. I will definitely need a few friends to help out, as my garden needs levelling first ive got a mini digger booked in first. I will be laying over existing turf which is verh uneven and get muddy as hell after any rain. Wish me luck.
Good luck!
I have old astroturf seeded astroturf to be installed in Hockey ground 220 by330ft, what will be the cost of laying astroturf?


Hello, you would be best to contact a local sports contractor to offer you a price.
Please share what is purpose of all the added sand at the end of process?
It has numorous benefits. It's primary function is to add weight to keep the product in position. It also gives it the most natural look and helps the blades to stand upright. It also helps to keep the product cooler in summer.
I have a membrane over the soil can I lay the grano over the membrane then another membrane over the grano.
Yes.
That's a really helpful video. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Why do you not use wooden battening around the edges?
Using wooden battening creates an inferior finish. It does not give a natural looking result.

@@artificialgrass_uk For some reason my boss makes us dig it out then type 1 it, then sand and grass... Are we wasting our time type 1ing it ?
@@thomasholland2384 Type 1 is recommended. It isn't shown in this video (only mentioned in voice over). Typically you would do up to 0.125 tonnes of Type 1 per m2 and 0.05 tonne of granite 6mm to dust per m2. Membrane can go above or below sub base, we prefer on top, followed by grass.
what kind of sand do you add at the end..?
Kiln dried sand, ideally Garside 2EW or similar.
It's all well and good adding Sand to the finished Lawn,but to my Way of thinking,the Sand could propagate Weeds and other plants via Bird Droppings... What are your thoughts on this?....🤔
I have an artificial lawn,it saves a lot of work, but it still needs a degree of maintenance,and yes weeds will eventually pop up,a good sweep with a stiff broom once a month does the trick.

What if installing artificial turf on a slope, 1 meter slope over 25 meter span, if I put infill - fine sand on top of the turf will the sand not run off during heavy rains? if so, what is the solution to installing turf on slopes? thank you for the video
Hi there, it would be best to call us and we'll pass you over to our technical team to discuss the specifics of your project, so we can advise of the best solution, as there are considerations and options for you.
Was this done in one day?
Sure was!
Thank you for the video,
Please can you tell about quantity of sand that must be in 1 m2.
i have a 25 mm grass.
Regards
If it's a decent grade turf, use between 6-8kg's per m2. If the grass product does not have the curly thatch zone, then more sand will be required, 10-12kg's per m2. A good sand to use is Garside 2EW. Any more questions, give us a call on 0800 246 5566.
I have a important question. After the artificial lawn is installed, should we be seeing sand escaping out from underneath the artificial grass? With our new installation, that's what I'm noticing.
Definitely not.
@@artificialgrass_uk Thank you for responding.
How much to do all that area labour
How much material ?
Hi, if you check out our material calculator that will assist you... www.artificialgrass.com/installations-material-calculator
Is it possible to install artificial grass on paving?
Yes, assuming the paving is level and flat and in good order. A drainage underlay is also recommended over hard surfaces. This also helps with comfort underfoot.
Looks so good.
Does the postmix round the edge turn to concrete when it rains ?
Hi Scott, it hardens up and anchors the nails at perimeters and stabilises edges.
My full back garden is solid clay. How would I install artificial grass? 👍🏻
A good depth sub base and you may need to look at drainage options with your contractor, if you currently have any problems with the ground draining. The artificial grass surfaces are fast draining so that wont cause any problems. If you'd like us to connect you with a trained installer, please email us at info@artificialgrass.com and we'd be happy to assist.
What sand to use under the turf?
We recommend to use granite stone 6mm to dust under the grass as opposed to sharp sand.
how to take care for this grass? is heavy rain make any problems with flooding or not? how to clean it when dirty? what if will drop oily food from grill - sausage, butter, oil? can stand on it heavy objects? how it looks like when we remove heave objects from it?
Hello there. In terms of flooding, this has never been a problem. The sub base must be installed properly and the grass drains at 60 litre per min. Product is pretty much self cleaning but if any spills etc, just treat as you would a house carpet and soak up and use gentle cleaner to remove. Very straightforward and common sense really. You can also view our maintenance guides here: www.artificialgrass.com/knowledge-hub/ . For heavy objects, again much like a house carpet, the yarn will lift once heavy object is removed.Thank you.
What about when the area has varying slopes?
You contour the groundworks accordingly.
Do you work around skegness
We can certainly connect you with an installer of our products in that area. Please contact us via our website: www.artificialgrass.com/request-installation-quote/
Seriously !!! Is this all necessary??🥱
If you are going to do it, do it properly! 😊
Do you mean that people are to lazy to cut the grass ?
