Thanks mate. I’m using Astro turf for my child minding business and so far I’m finding so much easier & helpful. Great video; very informative and helpful!
This was awesome. Perfect installation with underlay sand and cleaned to perfection. I must be mad to stick with my current lawn.
Excellent lesson especially the detail showing how to cut round the tree, post and joining 2 pieces together Thanks
I agree u clips are great the top of them are coloured green to blend in and stronger done my friends stunning
Watched one or two videos on this subject, this seemed to me to be the best as it is straightforward and seems to deal with all the necessary basics with good clear narration.
This is perfect for rentals and investment properties or for your own home... seems low-cost maintenance... Awesome!
Wow! The difference between a professional installation and how we did it.
Amazing. A job well done. All steps applied.
Very interest video about Artificial Grass Installation
Fantastic... thanks so much for this video well I see a few men doing this but I'll be doing it on my own I hope my back doesn't give out... I've had too many bad experiences with cowboy builders.. if it takes me a week I will do it.. looking forward to spring !

@@missionDan Not always true. I have worked for a few contractors and those guys who charges alot also cut alot of corners. I got fed up one day after my last boss screwed me over on a ticket caused by his trailer having a bad light. He said he wasnt responsible so I took my last pay and started on my own. Customers shouldnt always pick the lowest bid but they should also be weary of those fast talkers from big companies.
So easy..😂😭 perfect video, thanx for sharing👍
Awesome video. Thanks so much for this.
Wow that was a great job. Well done.
Great video thanks for sharing! Quick question please......I am doing my back garden and I have the 'back end' of a fence (ie fence post showing). Do you put wooden frame against (in front of post) or in between the posts? What do you think would look better?? I am unsure?? TIA
Excellent video. One question: how low should be the bottom of the artificial turf compared to the deck? I mean, if it's the same level, the grass leaves would be about 3cm above the deck and I think it would hold dust and everything else that comes from the deck. But if it's about 3cm lower, people could stumb on the deck. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Very well done brother, great video, Thanks
A very efficient and informative video presentation. Muchas gracias!

Synthetic or artificial turf can be a great option for landscape areas where turf maintenance and growth is difficult. Now after watching this i am thinking to install it in my lawn soon.
I used to be a carpet fitter, fitted this onto playgrounds, and even to a indoor swimming pool, and when I left and got a driving job my new boss asked me to go to Wales and fit it around his carvan on the decking, so I took the wife and my son, he gave me a week to do the job, I finished it in 3 days.
Brilliant idea thank you so much From this video I got the idea Thanks alot
Do you have to add more sand if you get a thunderstorm and it washes the sand away?
i dont know where to start... but i will just mention the seem , slightly wider tape would be better , and the glue should go across from side to side , if the tape rips in half , the carpet will lift , and nails? on a seem ? would you let your kids run bare foot in there ? nailed into the ground? how long will it hold ?
Use a stapling gun to hold down the lawn ...and lathwood edges sat on a wet mix ...joints will come apart using a solvent.... staple them together over lathwood coated in bitumen
to stick the artifical grass, my nails wont stick to the artifical grass which underneath has sharpsand and subbase (type 1) compacted. Any advise?

I have a very bad lawn that’s nearly all mud or patchy grass, can I just lay it straight over that or will it still have to come up?
Hi.just wondering Why do you need to brush it up at the end with the sand ?
Amazing
will it be moistured eventually?
What kind of box cutter is that you use to hammer the nail
What is the sub base that you use ?
thats a very good video, i do turfing and often get asked to do astro turf, , it looks much harder then trufing, but still nice to know

Hi sir, Thank you for the video! (It was very helpful) Quick question: Why sand have to be applied after the installation above the turf?
@fitfreek
4 жыл бұрын
It helps keep the grass weighed down better overall (especially around the edges where it was applied heavier). Also as you brush or rake it in, the sand will help the pile stand upright rather than flat, which wont look very nice.

how did i go from videos on how beautiful an unmowed lawn can to be people straight up destroying a lawn and replacing it with plastic?
Some people make silly observations about the plastic, the food of the cows etc etc but the true this system in the cities would save a lot of gas water and less chemicals in the earth to me it seems fantastic but it is somewhat expensive
nice
the sand is silica sand, right?

They did this hella wrong to so..... Its suppose to 2 Inches of drain rock and 2-3 of decomposed Granite for the turf I use a stabilizer to harden the area and have a tighter grab on the nail. Once turf is installed I apply 1-2 Lbs of sand per sq ft.

leo Gracia that is incorrect. You actually only need 2 inches compacted of class 1 breeze or crusher fines. Any other road base in unnecessary and a waist of money.
would have used a carpet knee tool to stretch the turf to ensure no ridges and put more nails in
