One reason of people choose fake grass because it is almost maintenance free. Leaves, weeds, dirt, animal urine, flooding, UV resistance, grass disfiguration and suchlike can often give rise to concern but all of these matters can be resolved quickly and easily. Fake grass maintenance is similar to having a real lawn but no more mowing and no more seeding the mud patches! This article gives you some tips to make your fake grass surfaces look more beautiful.

If leaves get on the synthetic lawn surface, you can brush them or use a leaf blower / sucker. Contact your local garden centre to acquire the necessary equipments. Weeds should never appear on your artificial grass lawn because the membrane applied beneath the synthetic surface will prevent undesirable plant life from growing.
When the fake grass becomes dirty, some clients hose the turf down but you can simply leave the rain to clean it naturally. For sports applications, the fake grass should be hosed down regularly to avoid sanitary problems arising from the microbes deposited by human sweat, skin and especially blood. For more information about the use of fake grass with any intense leisure activity, please consult the sports grass section.

Animal urine should be viewed and treated in a similar fashion. For the cleanest possible environment, water can be used to keep your artificial grass hygienic. Furthermore, it is worth remembering that all Astroturf surfaces are porous, so the urine will be absorbed by the soil underneath. This attribute also allays all fears of flooding because water will disperse just like on a real lawn. Similarly however, the landscape needs to be to a reasonable standard for proper drainage. Consult your faux grass installation team about your garden landscape requirements.
The artificial grass may appear disfigured if the pile becomes flat. In this case you can brush it upright or infill with kiln-dried sand to solve the problem. Disfigurement tends to be of concern for high traffic areas and long pile height Astroturf can be used to prevent any such occurrences.

Discoloration does not apply to modern high quality synthetic turf. The grass is UV stable and has been tested in the majority of climates.

Fake grass surfaces will never bring more work orproblems.
