An Easigrass lawn offers the beauty of lush, green grass all year without the usual fuss of natural turf. However, to keep your artificial lawn looking its best, some simple maintenance is needed throughout the seasons. Here are practical tips to help you enjoy a flawless green space no matter the time of year.
Spring: Fresh Start After Winter
– Remove Debris: Clear fallen leaves, twigs and other debris regularly using a leaf blower or a stiff broom. This prevents dirt build-up and keeps your lawn looking tidy.
– Brush the Grass Fibres: Use a stiff-bristled broom to brush the grass fibres upright. This restores the natural look after winter compression.
– Check for Damage: Inspect seams and edges for any wear or lifting from frost or winter weather, and arrange for repairs if needed.
Summer: Keep It Cool and Clean
– Rinse Regularly: Use a hose to rinse your turf every couple of weeks to remove dust, pollen and pet residues.
– Remove Stains Quickly: For food or drink spills, blot the area immediately with cold water and mild detergent if necessary.
– Prevent Heat Damage: On very hot days, spray your lawn with cool water to keep the fibres from overheating and maintain comfort underfoot.
Autumn: Prepare for Falling Leaves
– Frequent Leaf Clearance: Clear leaves often to avoid staining or mould growth underneath the turf.
– Brush Away Soil and Mud: After wet weather, brush any soil or mud deposits to keep the surface clean.
– Pet Waste Management: Remove solid waste promptly and hose down the area. For urine, rinse well with water and use an enzyme cleaner if odours develop.
Winter: Protect Against Frost and Snow
– Clear Snow Gently: Use a plastic shovel or broom to remove snow carefully without damaging the grass fibres.
– Avoid Salt Use: Do not apply salt or de-icing chemicals on Easigrass as these can degrade the material.
– Inspect Drainage: Ensure drainage is working well to prevent water pooling or ice forming on the surface.
General Maintenance Tips All Year
– Regular Brushing: Brush your lawn every few weeks to keep fibres upright and maintain a natural appearance.
– Weed Control: Although Easigrass resists weeds, occasional sprouting may occur around edges. Remove weeds by hand or use a weed killer safe for artificial grass.
– Pet-friendly Care: For homes with pets, rinse urine spots regularly and remove solid waste promptly. This keeps your grass hygienic and odour-free.
