How to Lay Artificial Grass Using FamilyGrass.ie Products

1. Choose the Right Grass:

   • FamilyGrass.ie offers a variety of grass types to suit different needs. Browse their selection to find the right thickness, texture, and color for your garden.

2. Prepare the Ground:

   • Clear the area where you want to lay the artificial grass. Remove any weeds, rocks, or old turf to ensure a smooth surface.
   • Excavate the soil to about 2-3 inches deep, depending on the base material you choose.

3. Install a Base Layer:

   • Create a solid base using crushed stone or a similar material to provide good drainage and stability. Spread it evenly and compact it to create a level surface.

4. Apply a Weed Barrier:

   • Lay a weed membrane over the base to prevent weeds from growing through your artificial grass. FamilyGrass.ie offers weed membranes that are easy to install.

5. Roll Out the Artificial Grass:

   • Roll out your artificial grass carefully, making sure it covers the area completely. FamilyGrass.ie offers grass rolls in various sizes, so measure the area first to ensure a good fit.

6. Cut to Fit:

   • Trim the grass edges with a utility knife to fit the shape of your garden. Ensure the edges are neat and tight to any boundaries like walls or paths.

7. Secure the Grass:

   • Use galvanized nails or U-pins to secure the grass around the edges and seams. This will prevent it from moving or lifting over time.
   • For seams, use jointing tape and adhesive provided by FamilyGrass.ie to create a seamless appearance.

8. Brush and Add Sand:

   • Once installed, brush the artificial grass against the grain to make the fibers stand upright.
   • Spread kiln-dried sand over the grass to weigh it down and give it a more natural feel.
