When you get your roll of grass it may have the salvage piece on one or both sides of the grass, this is left on only for protection in transit, so it needs to be removed. Using a sharp stanley knife cut the salvage strip off with the first 3 stitches as this will give a clean joint, making sure that you only cut the backing with the tip of the blade. You can\u2019t joint onto a salvage piece you must use the landscape jointing tape and adhesive.<\/p><p>Once you have prepared your joint by cutting back the 3 stitches, place the jointing tape, shiny side down, directly under the two pieces that form the joint. Nail the jointing tape in position to stop it rolling back up or blowing in the wind.<\/p><p>Glue a line of adhesive 10mm each side of the join. Fold the artificial turf onto the adhesive making sure not to get any glue onto the yarn \u2013 in the event of you getting any glue onto the grass remove immediately with white spirit. Make sure to leave a small gap of 2-3mm between the sections of grass to get the best join.<\/p><p>Nail the joint every 700mm using 4\u201d galvanized nails as this will hold it in position until the glue sets \u2013 only tap the nails in half way, these are temporary to ensure that the join isn\u2019t pulled apart during the rest of the install.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-152c5f19 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"152c5f19\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3dcc3bdc\" data-id=\"3dcc3bdc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d7d35f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5d7d35f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Step Six<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35eebb7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"35eebb7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Trim the grass in at the perimeters using a sharp stanley knife.
