Trulawn Installation Process<\/h1>\n

If you’re looking for an artificial grass installation process, we recommend contacting us first.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Preparation is the key to success<\/h3>\n

Trulawn will always lay a base of aggregate, in addition to grano dust, many other artificial grass installers\u00a0only lay a base of sharp sand, ensuring a robust and long term installation of your new lawn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We remove the waste<\/h3>\n

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.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Our artificial grass installation, step by step<\/h2>\n
\n
\"\"<\/a>
Our free installation survey will review the existing lawn and work out levels.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
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.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
A stabilisation membrane is laid to help prevent the sub-base from slipping into the ground below and keep the sub-base stable. <\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
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.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
A layer of type 1 limestone is installed to a depth of between 40mm and 50mm.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
The ground is then compacted using a wacker plate to avoid sinkage and achieve a solid base.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
A layer of grano dust is installed to a depth of between 15mm and 20mm, this is then compacted and smoothed off.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
A durable weed membrane is installed to keep weeds from growing.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
A knife is the perfect tool to make sure your grass fits perfectly i your garden space.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
Perfect seams, joining grasses are lined up and joined with high strength seaming tape.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
The adhesive is then spread onto the seaming tape to ensure a tight bond.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
Next, the grass is gently folded down onto the adhesive.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/a>
The grass is finally secured with small nails to a timber or metal edge around the perimeter of the garden.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
