Here’s How To Keep Your
Artificial Turf Looking Its Best

We’ve put together this comprehensive care guide to help you maintain the beauty and longevity of your artificial grass landscape. Following these simple steps will not only keep your turf looking lush and vibrant but also ensure that your warranty remains valid. So, let’s dive in and discover how easy it is to keep your artificial turf in top condition!

Care & Maintenance

Keep it Clean

Whether it’s dust, pollen, or other airborne pollutants, keeping your turf clean is essential for its durability and appearance. Regular rinses and gentle cleaning will help prevent buildup and maintain its fresh look.

Rinse

Dust, Pollen, Other Airborne Pollutants: Let rain do the cleaning whenever possible. If you’re in a dry area, give your turf a good rinse every now and then.

Mop

For light dirt: Mix a teaspoon of mild detergent with a pint of hot water. Sponge mop the area and rinse thoroughly.

Spray Solution

For tougher stains: Like spills or pet messes, try using a solution of 3% ammonia in water followed by a thorough rinse.

Care & Maintenance

Periodic Brushing

Artificial turf benefits from regular brushing to restore its appearance and prevent matting. Periodic brushing will help keep your turf looking lush and inviting.

Brush against the grain of the turf fibers. This means brushing in the opposite direction of how the grass lies.

Use a brush with synthetic bristles: Avoid damaging the fibers.

Grooming frequency: Weekly for high-traffic areas, monthly for low-traffic

Synthetic Brush

Only use a brush with synthetic or fibers or bristles.

Care & Maintenance

Preventing Odors

For pet owners, regularly rinsing the area with clean water can help prevent odors. You can also use specialized artificial grass deodorizers to neutralize pet odors.

Attach

Our Paw Perfect Fresh and Clean deodorizer is a perfect solution to help eliminate odors.

Spray

Care & Maintenance

Seasonal Maintenance

Cold Climates

In colder climates, use a plastic snow shovel or brush with soft bristles to remove snow without damaging the turf.

Hot Climates

In hot weather, spraying the grass with cool water can help lower its temperature, making it more comfortable for both people and pets.

Weed Control

Regularly inspect the edges and seams for any signs of weeds and remove them promptly, either by hand or with a spot application of herbicide safe for artificial turf.

Care & Maintenance

Infill Maintenance

Prepare

Periodically check the infill level throughout the turf. Use a stiff brush to feel for areas that may be low and require topping up.

Pour

Add more infill material, following the manufacturer’s recommendations for quantity and type, to maintain proper depth throughout the lawn.

Brush in Infill

Groom the infill with a rake, turf rake, or brush to prevent compaction and ensure even distribution.

Care & Maintenance

Avoid Abuse

While artificial turf is durable, it’s essential to take precautions to prevent damage. From avoiding sharp objects to protecting against heat and heavy loads, simple steps can go a long way in preserving the integrity of your turf.

Sparks and Fire

Keep fireworks, cigarettes, and hot objects away from the turf.

Sprinklers

Cover or remove nearby sprinkler heads to avoid mineral deposits on the turf.

Reflections

Beware of reflected sunlight from windows, lights, metal, glass, or any reflective surfaces, as it can melt turf fibers.

Heavy Objects

Beware of heavy objects and equipment.

Vehicles

Don’t let vehicles idle on the turf to prevent heat damage.

Avoid Metal Rakes

Do not use metal rakes or a brush with metal bristles.

Harsh Chemicals

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on artificial grass, as they can damage the fibers.

Sharp Objects

Keep sharp objects away from the artificial grass to prevent tears or punctures.

Care & Maintenance

Preventing Compaction

Move

Move furniture periodically and redistribute infill to prevent compaction. Rotating heavy items like outdoor furniture can help prevent permanent indentations.

Brush

Once you move the heavy item, brushing can help restore its appearance and prevent matting. Periodic brushing will help keep your turf looking lush and inviting.

Care & Maintenance

Repairing Damages

Inspect the artificial grass regularly for any signs of damage such as tears, rips, or burns. Repair damaged areas promptly to prevent further deterioration.

Small tears or rips can be patched using a specialized turf adhesive and spare artificial grass patches following the manufacturer’s instructions. Larger damages may require professional repair.

Identify Problem Area

For small tears or rips, you may be able to complete a repair on your own. Note: Large damages may require professional repair.

Carefully Cut

Only if necessary, you may need to carefully cut a problem area to properly add adhesive. Refer to your manufacturer’s instruction.

Glue

Add adhesive to glue down the turf. Refer to your manufacturer’s instruction for approved adhesives.

Inspect

Once completed, inspect your repair and make sure the turf has had time to adhere to the backing.

Care & Maintenance

Professional Maintenance

Scheduled Annual Maintenance

Professionals recommend scheduling artificial grass maintenance once a year at minimum and more frequently depending on your use. During this visit, experts inspect for issues and provide specialized treatments if needed.

Deep Cleaning and Treatments: Professionals deep clean your artificial grass, removing debris and applying treatments as necessary. Regular maintenance ensures longevity and optimal appearance.
