Wow what a sloppy and half asses install. The grade was garbage. You compacted with a hand tamper and a water barrel? You are supposed to use a vibrating plate compactor, the base looked like sand and crushed rock instead of roadbase or decomposed granite. Edges looked lousy, and then you didn’t even power brush it, instead you used a grandi rake only. I do real installs and have an eye for perfection and still have customers concerned with each step, how these owners allowed all this tomfoolery to go on without asking whats going on is beyond me.
exactly. I haven't done this since I was an early teen and even then this is sad. And for home depot to allow their name on this video is appalling. no real tamping, no power sweep/broom, no weed barrier, pre emergent, amaze,... I would be pissed at any price they threw at me. HD quoted me $9800 for my 1800sqft area and another company $3570 for the exact same grass... I can do that with infill and tool rentals plus install for about $2k on salvaged within warranty grass or about $3900 for new American made. I can only imagine how much the guys in the video charge for material and labor.
We had a 35 ft roll, 15 ft wide that was rolled up for about 8 years, just sitting in our yard. We contacted an artificial turf installer and they did an outstanding job. On top of our compacted 3/4 minus, they brought in a load of "dust" - tiny pieces of rock with fine dust. We don't have DG in our area so that's what is used here in the Pacific NW. They made sure the turf's nap was going away from the house, which meant they cut our long roll into two 10 ft and one 15 ft sections and seamed them. They didn't just roll out the roll. That would have looked terrible because the nap would be going the wrong way. Infill, power brushing, etc. It turned out beautifully and looks very natural. You can't see the seams at all. Our dog loves it. A much better installation than on this video.
prolly decomposed granite quarter minus. can be pricy though. many people use 2 grades to cut costs though. large grade 1-2 then the top layer as quarter minus.
Bad install and the crew lacked basic install tools... looked like another fly by night company.Ugly cheap grass as well. Im getting ready to do 1800sqft... if I did this I would be in a lot of trouble and prolly bed ridden for a few days with their methods.
Jacob S. I agree, very shitty work. Might look decent on video and when new but a close look will uncover flaws and this won’t withstand the test of time
it goes between the blades to help keep them upright and also the weight keeps it from getting bubbles, waves and being scooted around like a rug on the floor
+Rudy Gallus Its an extremely cheap synthetic grass. You can tell by the looks obviously and the fact they are putting a infill in it like the silica sand to keep it standing up. Good synthetic lawn products dont use infill at all. This is some pretty shitty stuff.
I agree about the bad quality from HD and it's $3 psf. It is made in China. The infill free turf costs a lot more than this landscaping turf. I have used, top quality football and soccer field turf at 80% off of new prices. All used turf is made in USA and usually includes rubber infill. Most of my inventory is on the East coast. 3two3/6OI-TURF
This is not true at all Catlin. Most synthetic grass, regardless of the quality, requires some sort of infill. Some grass requires more than other. There are several synthetic grass infill products depending on the application.
Last week we purchace carabao frog but is not grow only 20percent have and its very expensive waste of money,i guess carabao grass is better or peanut vine
Nice easy rectangle area there Home Depot. But, try measuring a large area and purchasing the correct amount of turf to fit a non-proportional area with meandering arcs and curves, having to cut across the stitching for the 1st time in order not to have 50% wasted turf. This certainly would have been helpful. Everything else is a no brainer.
I purchased our turf through Home Depot. Everything went well, however when it is hot outside the turf has wrinkles. I have considered stretching it but fear it will pull away from the edges when it is cold. I have not put the fill material in the turf yet and think that may solve the problem, but I am fearful that if it doesn't solve the problem it would be very difficult to stretch the turf at that point. I have the turf nailed down on the perimeter as well as the field. Please advise. Russ
+Jennifer Barker I imagine you have solved this by now but if not feel free to write me i could offer some advice. Been working at a artificial lawn company for 6 years.
They installed it cold and didnt stretch or allow to acclimate for a bit while sun was out before installing it. If it was cold/cooler out and they cut it and pinned it down for install, once it gets hot it wants to expand, and since its cut and nailed down, it will wrinkle up. Sloppy install.
as said before me- if you haven't solved it (this is for others who read your question too). now that's its been laid out- re stretch it since is been aired out long enough, re nail it, and use the infill. That is all if correct if you did lay down the proper sub base layer/s... if not it prolly wont happen as bad with the infill and re stretch but the shrinking can be from clay and basic dirt... which is why you prep with a sub base to minimize or completely eliminate that possibility.
I'm thinking about getting the 15 width for $37.20 linear ft at home depot. Do you really need to buy subsoil what if i already have a big dirt area flattened out? im just wondering if that would save me money. i dont see why i need to buy subsoil if its already flattened out dirt area. let me know when you can?
What these guys said for sure. Like everything done well, the real work is in the preparation. You can save money and get by with short cuts but if you're going to spend that much on the turf do you really want to install it improperly and risk imperfections or future issues that might cause you to redo the turf? I suggest going the distance the first time every time. Commit to perfection or commit to sub par. No matter what project you do, you should always do it right. There are reasons why it's done that way.

What type of sand was the base? Looks to be select fill. 5:09 5:09

Yeah why not cover the whole planet in low maintenance plastic ... and kill everything , then die!
Is that a normal sand used to make a base ?

This is much easier , because its so simple, dont need any mechine
No weed membrane ??????
This video is the first ever install of artificial grass, first ever roll out the factory and onto some dirt, i think it was John Wayne's back yard.
Why you added silica sand on the top turf
Boa tarde.
Nice video, where u get that black framing stuff at? Only found the flat 3 inch backing board at home depot? Thanks for vid

Very curious the face impressed in the sub-base just in the center of shot, then openly deleted by hand. It remembers a certain ObL.

what is the sub-base?
prolly decomposed granite quarter minus. can be pricy though. many people use 2 grades to cut costs though. large grade 1-2 then the top layer as quarter minus.
He’s a piece of shit installer
Doug, yes you can, make sure it is level and compacted
looks cheap. there're MUCH much better quality and "real grass-like" looking artificial lawn on the market.
excelente video. una pregunta esto sirve para canchas de fútbol?. saludos

pretty cool clean up good for dogs pee and poop?
What about the weed stopping membrane? All you did was put sand on top of dirt!
Wingster Rod some of the turf already has the weed protection layer
Thunder Up 405 Weeds can still migrate through the drainage holes in the turf
Bad install and the crew lacked basic install tools... looked like another fly by night company.Ugly cheap grass as well. Im getting ready to do 1800sqft... if I did this I would be in a lot of trouble and prolly bed ridden for a few days with their methods.
Jacob S. I agree, very shitty work. Might look decent on video and when new but a close look will uncover flaws and this won’t withstand the test of time
Good job. Fortunate that no seams had to be joined.
What's the purpose of adding silica sand?
it goes between the blades to help keep them upright and also the weight keeps it from getting bubbles, waves and being scooted around like a rug on the floor
good job pro.
this does not look like synthetic lawn grass at all...looks like the shit my uncle stapled onto his deck back in 1982

Doesn't silica sand cause cancer?
No we breathe it all the time. Doing this for 3 years and nobody dead or even seriously sick so far. Seems OK based on our test so far
Silica destroys lung tissue if enough is inhaled. Refer to the scientific reports to read more.
No but smoking does
Last week we purchace carabao frog but is not grow only 20percent have and its very expensive waste of money,i guess carabao grass is better or peanut vine
Janet, you do realize that this is Artificial Grass, right? No growing will happen. lol

no plate compactor? must suck hand tamping everywhere
They used a roller.
Cool

+Jennifer Barker I imagine you have solved this by now but if not feel free to write me i could offer some advice. Been working at a artificial lawn company for 6 years.
Jennifer Barker Did you use gravel as a sub base? Properly done sub base will help minimize expansion and contraction to help avoid this problem
They installed it cold and didnt stretch or allow to acclimate for a bit while sun was out before installing it. If it was cold/cooler out and they cut it and pinned it down for install, once it gets hot it wants to expand, and since its cut and nailed down, it will wrinkle up. Sloppy install.

Not a very good installation. No power brooming. No stretching equipment. No staples. Using paver restraints for borders.

Do you really need to buy subsoil what if i already have a big dirt area flattened out? im just wondering if that would save me money. i dont see why i need to buy subsoil if its already flattened out dirt area. let me know when you can?
it's better to put the substrate down for draining and a better base.
You need to use at least 4-6" of 25mm (3/4") road crush. This promotes drainage and also keeps the weeds from coming through.
What these guys said for sure. Like everything done well, the real work is in the preparation.

If you put down on dirt, you will grow mold and mildew underneath it.
