What to Expect During Your Artificial Turf Installation
November 24, 2025

Thinking about upgrading to artificial grass but not sure what the process involves? At Kingswood Turf, we take pride in delivering a seamless and professional experience—from the first consultation to the final walk-through. Understanding what to expect can help you prepare for your project and feel confident every step of the way.

Here’s a breakdown of our artificial turf installation process.

1. Initial Consultation and Design

It all starts with understanding your goals. Whether you’re looking for a low-maintenance lawn, a backyard putting green, or a dog-friendly play area, we begin with:

  • A site visit to assess the space
  • Taking measurements
  • Discussing your turf preferences
  • Addressing drainage, usage, and aesthetics

We then provide a clear estimate and design tailored to your needs.

2. Preparing the Groundwork

Once we finalize the plan, our team begins prepping the area. This is one of the most critical steps in ensuring longevity and performance. It includes:

  • Removal of existing grass or surface
  • Grading and leveling the area
  • Installing a weed barrier
  • Creating a stable base layer using crushed aggregate

Proper base prep is what makes our installations last—and why we never cut corners.

3. Turf Layout and Cutting

Next, we carefully roll out the synthetic turf over the prepped area and begin custom-cutting it to fit your space. At this stage, we:

  • Ensure a seamless layout
  • Minimize visible seams
  • Cut around landscape features or borders

We take our time to ensure a natural-looking result, even in complex layouts.

4. Securing and Infill Application

With the turf in place, we move on to securing it and applying infill. This step:

  • Anchors the turf with nails or staples
  • Adds infill (such as sand or pet-friendly alternatives) to support the blades
  • Helps keep the turf upright and cool

Infill is essential for performance and appearance—and we select the right type based on your turf’s use.

5. Final Grooming and Quality Check

We finish by brushing and grooming the turf to fluff the blades and ensure even distribution of infill. Then, we walk the entire area to inspect:

  • Edge integrity
  • Seam blending
  • Surface level and appearance

Only when everything meets our high standards do we consider the job complete.

6. Post-Installation Guidance

Once your new turf is installed, we provide you with tips for care and maintenance. The good news? It’s incredibly simple:

  • Occasional rinsing for debris
  • Light brushing to keep blades upright
  • No mowing, watering, or fertilizing

We also remain available for questions or support long after installation.

A flawless synthetic turf installation is all about precision, experience, and detail—and at Kingswood Turf, we bring all three to every project. From consultation to cleanup, we make the process stress-free and rewarding.
