Trulawn Installation Process

If you’re looking for an artificial grass installation process, we recommend contacting us first.

Trulawn provide a full installation service along with our products. To achieve the highest standard of appearance and to ensure your artificial grass maximises its lifespan, a quality installation is essential.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our installations and there are 2 key factors that distinguish us from some of our competitors.

Preparation is the key to success

Trulawn will always lay a base of aggregate, in addition to grano dust, many other artificial grass installers only lay a base of sharp sand, ensuring a robust and long term installation of your new lawn.

We remove the waste

Additionally we will remove all the existing sod and waste, most competitor installation providers will ask you to hire a skip and of course you have to pay for it, we include this priced into our service.

Our artificial grass installation, step by step

Step1
Our free installation survey will review the existing lawn and work out levels.
Step 2
To kick things off, first the existing lawn surface has to be removed to a depth of between 55mm and 70mm depending on ground conditions.
Lay on decking 2
A stabilisation membrane is laid to help prevent the sub-base from slipping into the ground below and keep the sub-base stable.
step 3
The entire perimeter is edged using plastic edging to ensure the sub-base material is supported. Cement haunching is used against a patio edge instead of plastic.
step 4
A layer of type 1 limestone is installed to a depth of between 40mm and 50mm.
Step 5
The ground is then compacted using a wacker plate to avoid sinkage and achieve a solid base.
Step 6
A layer of grano dust is installed to a depth of between 15mm and 20mm, this is then compacted and smoothed off.
Step 7
A durable weed membrane is installed to keep weeds from growing.
Step 8
A knife is the perfect tool to make sure your grass fits perfectly i your garden space.
Step 9
Perfect seams, joining grasses are lined up and joined with high strength seaming tape.
Step 10
The adhesive is then spread onto the seaming tape to ensure a tight bond.
Step 11
Next, the grass is gently folded down onto the adhesive.
Step 12
The grass is finally secured with small nails to a timber or metal edge around the perimeter of the garden.
