I am planning to install artificial turf in my backyard. What maintenance tips should I follow?
To keep your artificial turf looking great, follow a simple artificial turf maintenance routine, once a week do quick fake grass cleaning with a leaf blower, then give high traffic spots a gentle hose rinse. Each month, a bit of synthetic grass care goes a long way, so do some turf brushing with a stiff nylon broom to lift the blades and help with any infill top up. Got pets? Stay ahead of pet odor control by picking up solids, rinsing, and using a mild vinegar solution. For spills, start with water based stain removal, blot kindly, and avoid harsh chemicals. Keep things safe with BBQ heat protection by placing grills on hard surfaces, and look after drainage and weeds by clearing edges and pulling any sprouts by hand. Every few months, check joins for quick turf seam repair, and twice a year treat the lawn to a gentle deep clean so it stays soft, springy, and ready for bare feet.
