Q: What is the life expectancy of this product?
A: The turf actual life expectancy is 15-25 years.

Q: What type of maintenance should I expect?
A: An occasional brooming is recommended but not necessary. This will stand the fibers up and even out the in-fill material. Debris like leaves and twigs can be easily removed with a leaf blower. As long as the leaf blower nozzle is not placed too close to the turf, the sand and rubber will stay in place while the debris is blown away. 

Q: Can this be installed over my existing lawn?
A: The existing sod must first be removed either by spraying weed kill or removed with a Sod-Cutter, which is available at a rental store. A fine layer of crushed rock is laid down, smoothed and compacted before the turf is installed.

Q: What about drainage?
A: The drainage is very similar to natural grass.  The turf backing has many perforated holes allowing for water to drain vertically.  Additionally, the infill (sand) absorbs and holds the water. 

Q: Can pets harm it?
A: No. We even sell this material strictly for dog runs. Urine is not a problem as it absorbs into the sand and rubber and eventually evaporates. Other messes clean up the same as natural grass, using a pooper-scooper or shovel. You may also spray the soiled area with a hose then simply brush the turf back into place.

Q: How does the cost compare to installing a natural lawn?
A: When compared with installing a sprinkler system, top soil, and the price of sod, combined with watering, mowing, weeding, fertilizing, YES, it can pay for itself in a few years. You can minimize your investment if you include rock with your synthetic grass. The contrast of rock with our grass looks fantastic! We suggest installing our synthetic grass inside a landscape-edging border. Bend the edging to give it rounded corners. The rock can be placed outside the edging using a variety of different colors and sizes. Our Landscaping grass is custom made and not returnable.
