Pool Areas

Installing artificial grass by the pool needs meticulous precision due to its complexity. The initial step in installing artificial turf is digging and preparing the ground. To prevent sagging or sinking, the ground should be leveled and compacted carefully. A weed barrier is then laid down to prevent any potential growth from below. After that, crushed limestone is added as a base layer for more stability and drainage. The artificial turf is then rolled out, trimmed fit, joined, and secured to the ground.

Choosing the right artificial turf is crucial for a lasting and excellent installation. The turf around pools should resist chlorine and saltwater. Choose artificial turf with good drainage for the pool's water splashes. Varieties with a higher pile height can provide a lush, comfortable feel under the foot. UV resistance is important to prevent grass color fading over time due to sun exposure.

Artificial turf is slip-resistant, even when wet, which helps prevent accidents. Yet, the underpadding can greatly influence the fall safety rating of the turf. Hence, choosing high-quality padding can reduce injury risks. Always choose a turf product that is free of harmful chemicals and toxins. Artificial turf can prevent uneven ground, reducing trips and falls.
