Frequently Asked Questions:
Is this AstroTurf?
No, this is not the old "Astroturf" that you may be familiar with. Synthetic lawn technology has improved dramatically over the years, resulting in a product that looks and feels amazingly like real grass.
How is the turf installed?
First we remove and dispose of any existing sod or materials. Next we prepare the sub-base for positive drainage. Then we cut the turf to fit into your landscape and stake down the edges. We then "infill" the turf with sand or Cryogenic Rubber to make sure the turf fibers stand up and to add ballast to the lawn.
What is the "infill"?
We use either sand or cryogenic rubber as our infill material, which is then power-broomed into the fibers to make sure they stay standing-up. This also serves to add ballast to the synthetic yard.
What is the maintenance required?
Very little. Occasionally blow-off, rake, or pick-up any leaves or other debris. You can also use a hose to wash any foreign waste that lands on the turf. That's it! No mowing, no watering, no fertilizing, no re-seeding. Save hours upon hours of time normally spent doing yard work. Just sit back and enjoy your lawn.
Are pets OK on the turf?
Yes. In fact, we've installed synthetic lawns specifically for kennels and dog runs. The turf is pet-friendly and will not stain. Simply pick-up waste like you would on your current lawn and use a hose to wash off anything else.
How long will it last?
With proper care artificial lawns should last 12 to 15 years or more depending on usage.
Do you offer any warranties?
Yes, there is an 8-year manufacturers warranty on the turf, as well as a 2-year workmanship warranty.
