Identify the problem and treat it accordingly. Consult with a gardening expert or use appropriate pesticides or fungicides.

Can I install the turf myself?

This could be due to underwatering, overwatering, or disease. Check the soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule accordingly. Consider using a fungicide if disease is suspected.
