FAQs

How often do I need to clean this artificial grass?

Is it safe for pets and children?

Do I need to put sand infill in this artificial grass?

No, this particular artificial grass does not require sand infill, which simplifies the installation process and reduces maintenance.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will primarily need a sharp utility knife or blade for cutting, and artificial grass jointing tape along with suitable adhesive for seamless joins, if installing multiple sections.

What is the pile height of this artificial grass?

This product has a 7mm pile height, offering a practical and cost-effective surface.

Troubleshooting

Water is pooling on the surface.

While the grass has excellent drainage, check if the underlying sub-base is properly prepared for water runoff. Ensure drainage holes in the backing are not obstructed by debris.

Grass looks flat or matted.

Use a stiff brush or a power broom to brush the grass fibers against their natural direction. This will help to lift and refresh the pile, restoring its upright appearance.

Seams between grass sections are visible.

During installation, ensure grass sections are butted tightly together before applying jointing tape and adhesive. If already installed, you may need to carefully re-cut and re-join the seam, ensuring sufficient adhesive is used.

Grass appears dirty or stained.

Hose down the entire area with water. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Edges are lifting or not fully secured.

Ensure sufficient adhesive was applied during installation. For outdoor areas, consider using U-pins or securing to a border if edges were not initially fixed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significant Time Savings: Frees up hours typically spent on traditional lawn care.
  • Consistent Green Appearance: Maintains a vibrant, uniform look regardless of weather or season due to UV resistance.
  • Pet and Child Friendly: Drains quickly to prevent muddy paws or shoes, offering a clean play area.
  • Budget-Friendly Option: An affordable solution for achieving a green landscape.
  • No Sand Infill Needed: Simplifies installation and reduces material costs.
  • Adaptable Use: Can be installed in diverse environments, both indoors and outdoors.

Cons

  • Shorter Pile Height: The 7mm length is less lush than higher-pile artificial grasses, which might not suit all aesthetic preferences.
  • Initial Setup Effort: Requires careful cutting and joining during installation to achieve a seamless look.
  • Periodic Cleaning Required: Though low maintenance, occasional hosing and brushing are needed to keep it looking fresh.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the area is clean, level, and free of debris. For outdoor installations, ensure proper sub-base preparation for optimal drainage.
  2. Unroll and Position: Carefully unroll the artificial grass over the prepared area.
  3. Cut to Size: Use a sharp utility knife or blade to accurately cut the grass to the desired shape and size. Ensure cuts are clean and precise for seamless joins.
  4. Join Sections (if applicable): If covering a large area requiring multiple pieces, butt the edges of the grass sections together. Apply artificial grass jointing tape underneath the seams and secure with appropriate adhesive to create an invisible join.
  5. Secure Edges: For outdoor installations, consider securing the edges with U-pins or by bonding to a perimeter frame to prevent lifting.

Compatibility

  • Surfaces: Compatible with a wide range of surfaces, including soil (with proper sub-base), concrete, decking, and even interior flooring.
  • Indoor/Outdoor: Designed for versatile use in both outdoor gardens/landscapes and indoor spaces.
  • No Sand Infill: This grass does not require sand infill, simplifying installation and reducing overall weight and material needs.

Care and Maintenance

  • Routine Cleaning: For general upkeep, simply hose down the grass with water to remove dust, dirt, or pet waste.
  • Brushing: Periodically brush the pile against its natural direction with a stiff brush or power broom to keep it looking fresh and upright, especially in high-traffic areas.
  • Spot Cleaning: For spills or stubborn marks, use a mild detergent solution and water, then rinse thoroughly.
  • Debris Removal: Regularly remove leaves, twigs, and other debris to prevent accumulation and maintain appearance.
