While maintaining and refreshing your artificial grass is straightforward, there are common mistakes that many people make. Avoiding these can help ensure your lawn stays in top condition.
Using Harsh Chemicals
One of the biggest mistakes is using harsh chemicals to clean artificial grass. Bleach, ammonia, and other strong cleaners can weaken the grass fibers and damage the backing material. Instead, use mild soap and water or a specialized artificial grass cleaner. Always test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it won’t harm the turf.
Ignoring Drainage Issues
Poor drainage can lead to several problems, including standing water, bad odors, and mold growth. If you notice water pooling on your lawn, address the issue promptly. This could involve adjusting the infill material, clearing blockages in the drainage system, or even consulting a professional for more complex problems.
