It’s awesome you take time to look for window reflections before installing the grass. We just spent $7000 on artificial grass in our backyard and had no idea window reflection damages the grass. The installers told us when they were more than halfway done. When the sales person came to give us a quote he didn’t mention it at all. Now we are looking in to films for four windows to prevent the reflection.

Great video, thank you. Curious why you did not install a permeable weed mat barrier on top of the native soil (before adding the blended borrow).
Great job. Great teacher. 😀

Most helpful video. Is there a special type of grass used for hotter desert areas like Vegas or Palm Springs where it gets two 125ish.
Very informative thank you

Awesome video! Can we use fine DG as base material for turf? Also I see you did not lay weed control fabric underneath base material. Any reason why it was not done?
Nice video. I’m about to start my install in my approx 250 sqft patio. There used to be small white rocks in my patio and it currently has two drains. It’s those green grates that pop up. Do I get rid of that draining system or use them?
you are star well done t you and all he best for the future
Great tutorial video. 3 questions. What glue/adhesive were you using? Since I am in Louisiana we have VERY hot sun. Any tips on choosing turf that will stay cooler? Also a unique Louisiana issue. Any special tips on drainage and maintaining a permeable surface to handle our periodic monsoon rains. I have "French drains" in lots of areas of my yard. Will all artificial turfs allow water to flow fast enough to avoid standing water issues? or are there specific things I should look for when choosing my turf? Thanks again. You're a great teacher!

I love your video! It's very helpful. Thank you! I don't see you put weed barrier. Why?

There are different opinions on this. We prefer not to use weed barrier for projects that have pets.
What if you’re working on a slope? How many degrees can you install this on without washout? Thanks
How do I calculate how much base gravel I need if I know my square footage and inches I want in depth.
Very informative and put together video and how to but d o only people with square/rectangular yards get fake grass ? Our yard is is mostly pathways. Pool/Hot tub gezebo/fire pit area. Not some simple square. Like to see them installs.
How many days did this project take?
Can you please give a list of ALL material used step by step! Like sand etc
Great video! How much does something like this usually cost to install?

How much did it cost for that job?
Wait, he didn't use Burrier to keep the weeds out! This is awesome. At least I know I can skip that step.
Do you need to spray it with weed killer if real grass starts to grow through it?
