STEP 1
Existing surface is excavated to required level. Approx 80 – 100 mm below joining surface.
STEP 2
A 50mm - 70mm base of crushed rock is applied, smoothed out and then compacted with a vibrating plate.
STEP 3
A 20 – 40mm top layer of crusher dust (fine crush rock) is then applied, levelled out and finally compacted.
STEP 4
150mm nails or 100mm U pins are placed around the edges around 200 – 250mm apart to ensure the artificial grass does not come up.
STEP 5
Joining tape is used for all joins to keep grass together. Application of nails or U pins through joins is also recommended.
STEP 6
All Landscape grass needs to be laid in the same direction, ensuring fibres of the synthetic grass are facing the same way.
STEP 7
Use a sharp utility blade ( Stanley knife ) to cut around all edges or objects.
STEP 8
Specially graded dry sand is then spread evenly and brushed in to help weigh the grass down and help fibres of the grass remain standing.
