Many Orange County homeowners have contemplated installing artificial turf on their own without the assistance of an artificial grass installer. However, to paraphrase Jeff Goldblum in the film “Jurassic Park,” property owners can be preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they don’t stop to think if they should.
Fixation on saving money and resources can result in cutting corners and making grave mistakes, which could exacerbate the installation process in the long run and ruin what is supposed to be a long-term investment. If you’re considering installing your own synthetic grass landscaping, there are some pitfalls to keep in mind before you begin the process.
OVERLOOKING NECESSARY PREP WORK
Like a house, any good artificial grass lawn requires a solid foundation. This includes clearing your yard of debris, weeds, and remnants of natural grass, ensuring a clean slate for your installation.
Many homeowners tend to neglect the necessary steps during the preparation process. Cutting corners during preparation is like starting a marathon on the wrong foot; it will just set you up for problems down the road.
