Avoid Doing these 5 Mistakes to Your Artificial Turf

Most people think that there is nothing else they should do but enjoy after laying artificial turf. However, there are a few things that you should not do to your turf. Here are a few mistakes you should avoid if you are using an artificial grass carpet in your Singapore property. 

#1 Inadequate Drainage

Mould, mildew, and weeds thrive in stagnant water. The installation of a concrete base will aid in the removal of water from the surface. If you notice puddles where you installed an artificial grass carpet in your Singapore property, you should apply a crushed concrete base before the sand.

#2 Uneven Surface

Look for a carpet supplier and installation company in Singapore for synthetic turf. Most companies have expert installation teams to help you level a sloping garden. Ensure that the area is cleared sufficiently of the top layer of artificial turf before the sand base.

#3 Reflected Light Exposure

The glass on your window can amplify sunlight and reflect it onto your artificial grass. It can sear the grass carpet in your property. Place the fake grass somewhere on your property where it cannot happen.

#4 For Parking

Artificial grass creates a softer, more natural-looking surface. However, you should not use an artificial grass carpet on your property in Singapore for off-road parking. Rubber tires can cause wear and tear to the synthetic fibres due to their latex backing and pull the grass away, regardless of how well they are attached.

#5 Exposing to Excessive Heat

Because synthetic grass is of many plastic polymers, it cannot burn in the classic sense. However, when exposed to extreme temperatures, it can melt. As a result, it is preferable to use a hardscape apron to surround your outdoor barbecue or fire pit.
