What To Expect With Your Easigrass Artificial Grass Installation
Artificial grass has become a popular solution for homeowners looking to cut down on yard work and enjoy year-round beauty.
However, despite the countless benefits that come with installing artificial grass, a big hesitation from homeowners is not knowing what to expect from the installation process.
Will it be messy? How long will it take? Do I need to prepare anything? These unknowns can cause decision delays, even when the appeal of artificial grass is there.

3. Preparing the Area
The ultimate goal of every Easigrass installation is to ensure you have an excellent experience while enjoying a seamless, vibrant, and natural-looking finish. To help us achieve this, we start by preparing the area, removing your existing lawn or surface, whether it’s natural grass, paving, or another material.
One of the key benefits of artificial grass is the even surface it provides – ideal for helping to prevent trips and falls. To achieve this, we carefully level the ground using specialist cutting machines. Once the base is ready, we lay our unique Easigrass geotextile membrane, which is designed to prevent weeds from growing through while allowing for excellent drainage- no water pooling on the surface with artificial grass installed.
Next, we add aggregate layers on top of the membrane, starting with a heavy-duty base layer followed by a finer sand aggregate. This ensures a smooth, flat surface ready for installation.
4. Laying Your Artificial Grass
The moment has arrived to lay your selected Easigrass artificial grass product! The artificial grass is laid by our experienced team and positioned to fit your space. Every edge is measured and cut with precision to fit neatly around borders, flower beds or paving.
For a flawless finish, all seam joints are glued together using a durable and specialist under tape. This ensures the final joints are invisible to the eye, once again ensuring a stunning finish.
The final step is to apply silica sand to the entire area. This is a crucial step, as it helps maintain your artificial lawn, keeping it stable and preventing movement or damage during extreme weather. We make sure to drive the sand deep into the lawn with specialised brushes, ensuring every inch of your artificial grass is covered.
If you’re worried about the clean up – don’t be. Before revealing the finished product, our team thoroughly cleans the work area, clearing the garden and sweeping away any debris, so you can enjoy your new lawn in comfort.
5. Aftercare and Maintenance Advice
A big question we get asked is how to care for artificial grass. While synthetic turf is a low-maintenance solution, it does require some maintenance to ensure it remains in tip-top shape for years to come. Here’s what you can do once your artificial grass is installed:
Give it a Light Brush: Regular brushing helps keep your grass blades upright and prevents flattening in high-traffic areas. Brush against the direction of your grass fibres with a stiff broom. This action also helps redistribute your infill.
Sit Back and Relax: Let our experienced team handle all the maintenance. With our Comprehensive Artificial Grass Maintenance Package, we remove all debris, inspect wear and tear and do some intense cleaning to ensure your artificial grass is spic-n-span.
Enjoy Your Lawn: Our biggest tip is to enjoy your lawn! You can have peace of mind knowing you can enjoy all the beauty of your artificial grass with minimal effort.
