FAQs How do I calculate how much flooring I need? This all starts with removing the natural grass completely, compacting the ground, laying edging if required, then adding the base, which is often sand or stone. On the other hand, artificial grass does not get hot, making it the perfect play area for kids, and a great place for the whole family to relax on.

It is not advisable to install a separate drainage system on the artificial grass when the area has terrible drainage or the grass is installed wrongly. Professional companies will assess your residential or commercial property to ascertain whether you need a separate drainage system. Ten Best Artificial Grass for good drainageWeed free’ kiln-dried sand has a built-in weed inhibitor that will prevent any weeds from growing on your lawn. The best way to do this is simply by spraying water over it again. Observe if the drainage has improved, and make more holes if the problems persist. After that rest period, you should arrange the panels and prepare the joining edges by trimming three rows of grass away. Although we always recommend using a professional to install your artificial grass, you may be surprised to find out just how easy it is to install artificial grass on concrete.

You can solve this issue by hiring a reputable service provider to excavate the existing soil layers and install a porous sub-base system above the soil. Installing the Artificial Grass over Concrete Typically, with a standard artificial grass installation (i.e. to replace a lawn), the existing grass must be removed, either by hand or by using a turf cutter. The infill is the equivalent of sand in an artificial lawn. It helps the grass fibers stand, assists in drainage, keeps the grass cool, and much more. Clay soil is usually very compacted and water can’t easily filter through it. As a result, if artificial grass is laid over clay, you’ll end up with flooding. Before this is installed, we strongly recommend thoroughly cleaning the concrete so the artificial grass adhesive will properly bond with the concrete.

1. Prepare the decking

After this, secure the grass at the edges with glue directly onto the underlay. As with the underlay itself, use a continuous line of glue if you’re using drainage holes. If you’re allowing the water to run off, leave gaps in the glue for it to pass. Allow time to dry. Step 7: Install Infill and Brush Then, using a filling knife or stripping knife, apply the adhesive to the concrete or paving at about 200-300mm wide. And unlike concrete, it will not freeze – preventing your patio or path from turning into an ice rink.

A 5kg tub will cover approximately 12m, spread at a width of 300mm. A 10kg tub will therefore cover approximately 24m. Installing artificial grass on concrete is not an easily reversible process. What’s more, there’s also a lot of work involved. If you were to install your fake grass directly on top of concrete, once it lay flat it would mirror the undulations in the surface below. If large pieces of play equipment will be placed on the lawn and there is a significant risk of head injuries from falls from play equipment then we would recommend considering a 20mm artificial grass foam underlay. If water will be draining off your concrete or paving, rather than through drainage holes, you’ll want to leave gaps in your gluing to allow water to escape.The good news is that artificial grass on concrete is great for dogs. Your pets can safely roll around and play on it because it is safe and chemically stable. To calculate the quantities of glue required, you’ll need to measure the perimeter of your lawn in metres, and then multiply it by 2 (as you’ll need to glue the foam to the concrete and the grass to the foam). If you have joints, you’ll need to trim three stiches off the edge of each piece of grass, to form an invisible join.

If you have any pets in your home, it is important to think about how they are going to interact with the artificial grass too. If your concrete is stable and relatively flat then, in most cases, it will be fine to proceed with the installation. One of the most important aspects of a good drainage system is the sub-base. Before installing artificial grass, you need to lay down a layer of aggregate that water can easily filter through like sharp sand. This sub-base also provides a firm, even foundation to support the foot traffic over your artificial grass.Use a 16mm (5/8 inch) masonry bit and a hammer drill to drill your drainage holes. Drill straight through the concrete layer, and into the ground.
