Don’t Settle on Artificial Grass Installers – Find the Best with These Tips
May 30, 2023
More and more commercial and residential property owners alike are making the switch to artificial grass for their landscaping needs. Synthetic grass is taking the landscaping market by storm for a variety of reasons – not only does it look stunning, but it also is an environmentally conscious landscaping choice that requires minimal maintenance.
Artificial turf installation is key to its longevity – it’s crucial to choose an installer who is knowledgeable about their craft and keeps your needs at the forefront of the installation process. Below are some tips on how to choose the right artificial turf installer for your next synthetic grass landscaping project.
First, Do Your Research
Synthetic grass is a rapidly growing industry, with many providers and industry leaders to choose from. Accordingly, it’s important to do your research before committing to an installation company for your project.
Before settling on an artificial grass installation company, be sure to get multiple quotes and ask each company the following questions:
- How long has the company been in business?
- What experience does the company have with installing artificial grass on properties similar to yours?
- Are they a recognized dealer for the synthetic grass manufacturer?
- If they are not a recognized dealer, are they an authorized installer for the artificial grass manufacturer?
Look At Testimonials
Customer reviews are one of the best ways to determine the credibility and professionalism of a company. Websites such as Google and Yelp are great for finding unbiased community reviews of the artificial grass installation company that you are considering hiring. These client testimonials will give you an accurate and nuanced idea of the company’s service as well as how reliable they are and the quality of their installation work.
Additionally, it always helps to ask around your local community for turf installation recommendations. If you’ve admired your neighbor’s artificial turf lawn, backyard or patio, stop by and ask about their installer. These sorts of referrals are often the most influential.
Choose High-Quality Synthetic Turf Products
While choosing the right artificial turf installer for your artificial grass lawn is very important, it’s also equally as important to choose top-of-the-line synthetic turf. Even an excellent artificial turf installer can’t make up for a poor-quality product, making it even more imperative to select top-grade artificial grass for your landscaping needs.
When choosing high-quality synthetic turf, you’ll want to ensure that the turf you select has the look of natural grass. Synthetic turf with this look is higher in quality than the spiked, matted turf of decades past. In addition, ask for plenty of samples from the installer, and make sure that the manufacturer of these samples is specified.
Lastly, be sure to look up the manufacturer of the samples provided online to ensure the brand’s quality and reputation are on par with industry standards. It can also be beneficial to ask the installer about the differences between the products being quoted and other synthetic grass products on the market. The installer should be able to explain the attributes and potential benefits of each turf product and why it’s being proposed for your specific project.
Pay Attention to the Installation Process
Before choosing which company should take on your artificial grass installation, ask each company you have chosen as a “finalist” to further explain their artificial grass installation process. While each company’s process may vary, there are still steps that are standard practice when it comes to each type of artificial grass installation: replacing natural grass with artificial grass and installing synthetic turf over concrete.
