Everything You Need To Know About Fake Grass Installation
As far as landscaping projects go, fake grass installations tend to be fairly straightforward (at least for us). Nonetheless, they still need a plan. So, before you give the experts the green light to begin, find out about a few of the key dependencies to consider.
Here are some top tips gleaned from the feedback our customers have given us over the past 17 years. They’ll help you avoid any unexpected surprises before you join the many other happy homeowners who’ve switched to fake grass in Brisbane.
When installing Artificial Fake Turf, for your Brisbane home? It’s All About the Prep!
First up is the site inspection. This gives us the chance to give a realistic quote of what the job’s going to cost and what it’s likely to involve. There are plenty of potential issues and we’ve always been able to find a solution or workaround. Key factors include:
● Drainage issues
● Electrical or other types of cabling that might have an impact on the job
● Ensuring precise measurements of all required areas
● The general lay of the land and the type of surface(s) in question
Unless we’re installing onto concrete, we’ll need to remove the grass from your old lawn before we can lay your new fake turf. It’s also vital for us to get the ground underneath properly prepared. The big dependency tends to be the length of time this will take.
It’s typically possible to do all the heavy graft within 2 or 3 days. We will always give you our best possible estimate in our free quote so that you can plan ahead and work this into the likely timeframe of the entire project.
After the removal of the grass, it’s necessary to turn the soil and then smooth it over to get rid of any bumps or hollows. There are then a few other processes that make the magic happen. This includes specialists layers of various materials between the ground itself and the actual fake turf.
More About the Time Frame
Installing fake grass for your Brisbane properly takes a little time. As a rough guide, an area that’s around 100 sq m could take anything from 1 to 3 days.
The weather can be a determining factor, sometimes extending the time frame, this is especially the case with the recent weather provinding more than average rainfall. It’s always best to carry out the installation when temperatures are moderate. In the cooler or hotter months, that could mean moving the installation to optimum times of the day, this is also so we can ensure the health and safety of our installers which work really hard to give you a beautiful finish.
Our highly-skilled team will take care of all the measuring and trimming to ensure a finished product that will turn the neighbours green with envy.
