Artificial grass is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional lawns and consists of a variety of artificial grasses with different properties. It is a popular choice for those who wish to enjoy the benefits of living outside without the hassles and maintenance that come with it.

The best way to maintain your artificial lawn is by using the right tools and taking care of the surface on a regular basis. 

Some people choose to use their vacuum cleaner for this task, but that can cause damage if you are not careful. Instead, use a brush with soft bristles to clean up debris from your artificial lawn every few days or so , and use a dry broom to keep the surface free from dust.

If you have a pool, you might want to consider having your lawn installed over that instead of around it. By installing over the pool, you will not only protect your lawn from harsh chemicals and conditions that are present in swimming pools but also ensure that any pets or children who might step on the grass don’t get into the pool.

Another benefit of installing the lawn over your pool is that the grass won’t be soiled by rainwater that pools in your roof and leaks through the walls. This will also avoid any potential damage to your pool if you install it around it.

Artificial grass is becoming more and more popular in the market. But, it is important to know how to maintain your artificial grass and prevent it from getting damaged.The first step in maintaining your artificial grass is to vacuum the surface and remove any debris or dust that may have accumulated on the surface. 

Then, you should use a hose to spray down the surface with water. You can also use a garden hose for this purpose. If you find that your artificial grass has been damaged by water or other elements, you can apply a sealant on it before re-watering it again.

Durable in weather

While the Sunshine Coast weather conditions are mild and beautiful in comparison to other regions, the impact of heavy rainfall and swift temperature changes can lead to lush, green grass turning brown quickly. With artificial turf you’ll feel like you’re on a resort and can avoid unpleasant lawn damages.

Artificial turf will look great regardless of what types of weather you have and doesn’t need to be replaced as often as other types of turf.

Areas that have drought and water restrictions usually have a hard time maintaining their lawns. But with fake grass, you can reduce the amount of water you need without having to sacrifice your grass.

Don’t use any harmful chemicals in your yard

Keep your lawn safe from harm by never using harsh chemicals near it. Using these can cause irreversible damage to your water and soil, beware of this.

When synthetic grass is exposed to organic materials like leaves and dead bugs, it’s best to remove them. If you want to keep your lawn safe, then make sure that all organic materials are out of the way.

Wash away debris

Clean and maintain your lawn and this will help remove dry organic matter and leaves – pollen may be sucked up into the grass due to the force of the water.

We recommend using natural cleaning chemicals like water because they are the safest option. Avoid using chemical cleaners because they may damage your lawn.

Let the grass air dry, of course, and communicate with others when it’s slippery around there.

There is no specific instruction on how to make an artificial lawn, but it can be made by raking soil and/or gravel into fibers.

Keeping your grass looking decent can be tricky as the clippings will just collect on top of the ground and your grass seems dried out. Raking on a regular basis helps distribute the blades so there’s less chance of this happening

A good time to follow this often is when you have the lawn mowed and weeds have been removed. This will also help the lawn wear evenly and weed out any unwanted plants.

We recommend using a mild weed killer, but take extra care in ensuring the mix is not too potent as this can damage the lawn over time.If you are looking for high-quality artificial grass, Coastal Synthetic Turf has a variety of solutions for your next commercial or residential landscaping project.
