Many people in San Diego are opting for turf grass for their lawns especially after introduction of new water restrictions that have made maintenance of a natural lawn quite difficult. Besides the fact that turf grass does not need to be watered from time to time, other reasons why most homeowners prefer this grass over natural grass are; synthetic grass does not attract insects, it does not require mowing, trimming or fertilizing, and it is also pet friendly.

But for you to enjoy the benefits that turf grass San Diego brings, you need to make sure that it is installed properly. Before installing it, you will need to clear all the existing grass, weeds as well as plant material from the area.

You can use equipment or nonselective herbicide to kill weeds and plant materials from the area where you want to plant the turf. Whichever method you use, make sure that the place is cleared several days before installing the artificial grass.

After properly preparing the place to plant turf grass in your San Diego homestead, you will need to add a two to four inch layer of crushed aggregate over it in order to create a positive drainage underneath. You will need to take this step seriously because it will help you make sure that your turf grass is not washed away by heavy downpours, or small pools of water do not form on it when it rains.

Make sure the grass does not sit higher that the surrounding surface when creating the drainage.

Once you are done creating the drainage for the turf, you will need to install a weed barrier on the base of the aggregate. Make sure that the barrier is properly secured with landscaping staples.

This is another important step that you should not overlook when installing synthetic grass San Diego. It will prevent weeds and plant material from springing up from your new lawn, and as a result helping you reduce the lawn maintenance tasks in the long run.

Be sure to look for the best-quality weed barrier fabric for this purpose. What will follow will be the installation of the turf grass itself.

You will need to roll out the turf depending on the measurements of the area. If you are planning to use several larger pieces of turf grass over a larger area, make sure that the blades of the pieces are going in the same direction when you lay the turf.

This will allow your finished product to look more polished and professional. Use a box cutter or carpet knife to cut the turf to fit your area once you finish laying the pieces.

The next thing will be to seam the pieces of turf together using landscaping staples and apply infill material using a drop spreader. Be sure to spread the infill material and make sure that it gets to the base of turf fibers. This will help to hold the grass in place even during heavy downpours.
