Why Regular Maintenance Matters for Synthetic Turf

Like any lawn, synthetic turf requires regular upkeep to keep it in premium condition and enable you to get the most of your greenery. Below are just a few reasons why artificial grass maintenance is vital for your property.

Prevent wear and tear: The longer you leave your synthetic turf to itself, the more quality will degrade. Simple steps like brushing, turf surfaces, removing debris and professionally levelling the infill help to prevent unnecessary wear.
Maintain safety: An uneven or debris-covered turf can easily lead to user injury. Prevent hazards by ensuring turf is free from sticks, stones and other debris, is professionally compacted and has an even distribution of infill.
Promote good hygiene: Neglecting artificial grass maintenance can lead to a buildup of bacteria and odours caused by food spillage, pet waste and natural debris. It’s important to consistently rinse and sanitise your synthetic turf to keep it clean and hygienic at all times.
Ensure effective drainage: Optimise your turf’s drainage functionality with ongoing maintenance. When drainage becomes clogged by debris buildup, it causes water to pool on the surface. This can both damage the quality of the turf and lead to injury by creating a slippery surface.
Enhance visual appeal: Dirt, rubbish and natural debris harm the aesthetic appeal of synthetic turf. Regular cleaning, tidying and general maintenance will keep your turf looking fresh, pristine and appealing to all.

Residential Artificial Grass Care Tips

Do you have beautiful synthetic turf at home? Here are our top tips for keeping it in clean, premium shape all year round.

Debris removal: Clear plant matter and other debris that block drainage and damage the surface of your turf. We recommend using a rake or powerful leaf blower once every week or two.
Routine brushing: Regularly brushing the surface of your turf ensures the blades stay upright, which helps to prevent unsightly clumping. Simply use a broom with stiff bristles once a week for best results.
Occasional rinsing: Once a month or after severe weather events, hose your turf down to remove dust and grime and keep it looking fresh and vibrant.
Review infill: Periodically check your turf’s infill and ensure it remains evenly spread. If there has been minor distribution, smooth it out using a brush. If it looks in poor shape, it’s time to call the professionals.

Maintaining Sports & School Turf Surfaces

Synthetic turf on sports fields and school grounds endures high-use and therefore needs thorough and ongoing maintenance to maximise its quality and longevity. Here are some of the professional services we offer to keep your turf in top shape.

Surface safety: Consistent grooming, including brushing, cleaning and sanitising, ensures the safety of those using your turf. Our team uses a mechanical turf brush to get the best results for your grass.
Infill levels: We will monitor turf infill levels with a depth gauge and respond when they are low or uneven, using our industry spreader to redistribute infill. This prevents injury and supports usability.
Line markings: Maintain a professional, tidy look and ensure a seamless playing experience with clear, tidy lines. We work with painted, taped and inlaid line markings, checking for evenness and clarity. We will touch up painted lines, glue loose edges and readjust inlaid lines, and reapply tape as needed to taped lines.
Performance testing: Are you unsure whether your turf meets safety requirements and supports optimal playability? We can professionally performance test your turf, from checking shock absorption rates and ball roll to assessing drainage capabilities and UV stability. We are FIFA, World Rugby, FIH, and ITF accredited for your peace of mind.
