HERE ARE THE STEPS
1) Remove the old turf
2) Excavated to 4″ below final grade
3) Lay 2″ of sub base like class 2 road base
4) Lay 1/2″ of base like leveling sand
5) Roll out the artificial turf
6) Do a rough cut of the perimeter, make sure to leave an excess of 4 to 5 inches.
7) Start at one corner and using nails and a turf grabber, begin securing the turf. Install 5 inch nails every 8 – 12 inches on the perimeter (4 – 6 inches on the seam). Continue using the turf grabber as you nail to remove wrinkles in the turf.
8) When you reach the opposite side, do your final cut, stretch with the turf grabber and nail.
9) Hand toss the infill (use a pet odor infill if you have a dog). 1 – 2 pounds per square foot of turf.
10) Use a Power Broom (a cool toy) to drive the infill into the turf. Note, this will also scatter some of the infill everywhere so keep small children and pets inside.
11) Use a power blower to blow the dust off the turf.
12) Hose down the turf to settle the dust and infill deep into the turf.
13) Sweep up any excess infill that is laying around.
14) RELEASE THE DOGS (AND KIDS)!!
